POPs with a size of less than 10.000 will merge with another POP when the POPs share type, culture and religion. The size of the second may well be over 10.000, but the total size may not be above 100.000.
Two questions:
  • How come these North German pops don't merge? I've got the same situation with some Swedish clerk pops in Svealand - they've been there since the start of the game and has not merged yet.
  • Will they ever merge with my scandinavian cultured pops or am I stuck with my German pops for the rest of my game?

Are they in the same province? The screenie only shows them working in the same factory, but they also need to be in the same province to merge.
About the second part; small POPs of non-state culture can assimilate (turn Swedish in this case), the more immigrant friendly your goverment is the faster it will happen.

Seems they are not. I've got ~1500 North germans and ~700 South germans in each and every province in Svealand and Götaland. I've got a liberal party with limited citizenship securely in power, so I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

I have seen simillar thing. It seems that starting pops under 10000 whont merge untill you as the player create a situation in wich merging might happen (i e promote another below 10000 pop) This will lead to all mergeble pops merging though. (I usually trie to avoid merging though...)

Edit
Ah, didn't read properly...Any thought about what I observed anyway?
