Abstract	Introduction: Mass-gathering events require well-calculated preparedness. Methods: The available resources and methods of the German rescue system were considered. The risks and problems associated with the vanishing of international borders, increasing professionalism in the rescue job field, and the establishment of an increasing number of European institutions involved in the German rescue systems were evaluated. The international influences on the disaster situation and the distribution of work among participating relief groups involved in a mass-casualty event were analyzed using mathematical models. The following aspects of German rescue missions were evaluated: (1) prevention; (2) emergency planning; (3) active mission; and (4) post-mission relief. Discussion: The positives and negatives of the existing federalism versus more central coordination of rescue-aid in mass-gathering events in Germany will be discussed. Conclusions: Only the simultaneously available evaluation of the different parts (phases) of a mass-casualty rescue mission will ensure the necessary safety and influence the situation in a positive manner.
