Background
Every federal state has its own coat of arms. The coat of arms of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania shows bulls’ heads for Mecklenburg and griffins for Western Pomerania. You can see it, for example, on public buildings, on state documents and on the state flag. Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania lies in north-eastern Germany on the Baltic Sea and borders Poland. The islands of Rügen and Usedom belong to it. Around 1.6 million people live in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
Why are the other answers wrong?
The other images show other coats of arms that do not belong to Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. For the test it is worth looking closely at your own state’s coat of arms – this question appears for every state.
