Free practice for the German citizenship test, with the 10 BAMF state-specific questions for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
Each Bundesland has a 10-question pool of state-specific questions about its parliament, capital, geography, and government. When you take the mock test, 3 of the 33 questions are randomly drawn from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern's pool — the same as the real BAMF Einbürgerungstest. The 30 general questions you'll see are the same across Germany.
Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is Germany's most thinly populated state and was reconstituted in 1990 by merging the historical regions of Mecklenburg and Vorpommern. Schwerin Castle, the state capital's seat, is a romantic 19th-century recreation of an earlier Slavic-Germanic fortification. The Einbürgerungstest covers the state's Baltic coast (longest in Germany), the Hanseatic cities of Rostock and Stralsund (UNESCO), and Western Pomerania's connection to historical Sweden (1648-1815).
Mecklenburg-Vorpommern offers the test at VHS Schwerin, Rostock, Greifswald, Stralsund, and Neubrandenburg. The state has fewer test centers per capita than larger states, so registering 4-6 weeks ahead is wise.
Mecklenburg is the western, larger half of the state with Schwerin as historical capital; Vorpommern (Western Pomerania) is the eastern, Baltic-coast half with Greifswald and Stralsund. The two were combined into one Bundesland in 1990 after East German reunification.
After the Thirty Years' War (1648), Sweden gained Western Pomerania as a fief of the Holy Roman Empire and held it until 1815, when it was transferred to Prussia. Several towns including Stralsund show Swedish architectural and administrative influences — a topic in the local question pool.
