Prussia Prussia

rdfs:comment

Prussia was a powerful north German state around which the other German states unified after the Franco-Prussian War in 1870-71. It was ruled by the Hohenzollern Dynasty, whose kings became known as "the German Emperors" after the unification of Germany. Prussia maintained a substantial level of autonomy within the empire. After World War I, Prussia became a Free State of the Weimar Republic. With the rise of the Nazi Party, Prussian autonomy was curtailed. After World War II, the Western Allies abolished Prussia, redividing it into several other states. Prussia, officially the Kingdom of Prussia (Esperanto: Reĝlando Prusio; Prussian: Prūsiskai Kongreich; Russian: Королевство Пруссия, Korolevstvo Prussija), is a member of the European Federation. Its capital is Twānksta. The glory and power of Prussia is a thing of the past, not the present. In 1812 the once mighty Prussia has been conquered and is now, forcibly, allied to the French. The military catastrophe of 1806 was a bitter lesson for the Prussian military, and the Prussian state overall, but a bitter lesson is still a lesson. Prussia learned from it and is now ready to once again rise to glory and power. After Germany lost the Great War to End All Wars, most of Prussia's land was taken by mean, greedy Allies, such as the evil /pol/es. Then, when Hitler and the National Socialist German Workers' Party came to power in 1933, Prussian government was unofficially dissolved and broken.

A group of pagan tribes, the Old Prussians, inhabited the area now known as Prussia for centuries. Repressing several attempts by Poland to colonize the area, the tribes eventually were Christianized in 1224 during the Northern Crusades. The Teutonic Knights established a crusader state in the region, the Monastic State of the Teutonic Knights. In 1454, the eastern portion of the Teutonic Dominions joined the Kingdom of Poland of the Jagiełłons, while the western portion remained in-tact until the Protestant Reformation, when popular uprisings resulted in the overthrow of Teutonic power and the establishment of the Duchy of Prussia in 1525.

Prussia can be formed by any country with Saxon, Prussian, or Pomeranian as its primary culture. During the Protestant Reformation, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights, Albert, secularized the order's Prussian territory, with him becoming it's first Duke. His duchy, with the capital in Königsberg, was a fief of the Crown of Poland. It was inherited by the prince-electors of Brandenburg in 1618, forming Brandenburg-Prussia. During this time, Prussia began to grow in military power under Frederick William. By 1701, it was elevated to become the Kingdom of Prussia. Today, Prussia still retains it's monarchy and is one of the most economically and politically stable nations in Europe. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, Prussia emerged as one of the great powers of Europe, playing critical and decisive roles in many continental conflicts, such as the Seven Years' War, the Napoleonic Wars, and the Revolutions of 1848. Prussia was a kingdom in Europe that eventually became the basis and largest part of the German Empire (1870-1919), and then the largest state of Germany during the Weimar Republic and Nazi Germany (1919-1945). The King of Prussia later became the Emperor (Kaiser) of the German Empire. The history of Prussia seems to start sometime around the 1220s with the attempt to conquer the Prussian tribes of the Baltic, in a region covered by parts of modern day Poland, Russian, and Lithuania. In the process, an independent state was created under the control of the Teutonic Knights, which continue to grow until conflict was initiated by an alliance of Poland and Lithuania. The Teutonic Knights lost and the Western part of Prussia was ceded to Poland in 1466. In 1525 the remaining parts of Prussia became the first Protestant state in Europe, though it still had ties to Poland. In 1701, it was reorganised as a Kingdom under the leadership of Elector Frederick III, who renamed himself "King Frederick I of Prussia". It was his son, Frederick William I who started the habit of expandi Prussia itself has only been “German” since the 13th Century, when the Teutonic Knights carved out a new Christian state on the Baltic coast. The present Kingdom of Prussia is a new state, the result of a union between the duchies of Brandenburg and Prussia, and it is a Kingdom only because the current ruler, Elector Frederick III has decided to improve his status to that of King! In doing so, however, he has been careful not to offend the Holy Roman Emperor, the Archduke of Austria, and calls himself the King “in” Prussia, not the King “of” Prussia.

Growing bored, the Prussians then bet the other drunken Germans that they couldn't invade Rome. This freed their lands of the other Germans. Thus fell the Romans.

Prussia (originally SociopathicSmurf, previously RadicalCommunist and Menshevik) is one of the former Builders of Minecraft Central. Prussia is a formable nation in Europa Universalis IV.

The Duchy of Prussia lasted until 1618 when it merged with the Margraviate of Brandenburg to form Brandenburg-Prussia. Prussia was established as a Kingdam under the House of Hohenstaufen in 1701. Becoming a leading state in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation. Subsequently becoming a founding member of the German Confederation and the German Empire, Prussia continued to dominate Central European politics until the end of the First World War. Following the creation of the Weimar Republic, Prussia was reorganized as a federal subject thereof. When the Nazi Party gained power in 1933, Prussia was effectively abolished with the creation of Gaue throughout the Großdeutsches Reich. With the creation of Großgermania in December 2008, the territory was reorganized into bezirke, or provinces. Prussia was recreated as a political entity, with borders similar to the region of Prussia rather than the dramatically larger borders of the former political entities known as Prussia. Klaus Bülow was named Chancellor, but was impeached by the Provincial Assembly during Alexandra von Nassau's coup d'état after he declared support for her rule. Following Michael von Preußen's return to power, Elizabeth von Mecklenburg was named his replacement. In December 2009, the Prussian Assembly approved a law decreeing the Prussian language to be an official language in the province, alongside German, Polish, and Russian. The language, which is nearly extinct, will now be taught in schools in the province in an attempt to promote its revival. The German Government subsequently approved the language as a regionally-recognized language of the Kingdom of Germany. A proposal by Emperor Michael von Preußen to do so at the Imperial level, equating the language with the official status of ten other languages, initially failed to gain Reichstag approval. Following negotiations with that body midway through the month, the Emperor persuaded the National Unionist Party to support the measure, promising a limited budget in its implementation. The history of Prussia seems to start sometime around the 1220s with the attempt to conquer the Prussian tribes of the Baltic, in a region covered by parts of modern day Poland, Russian, and Lithuania. In the process, an independent state was created under the control of the Teutonic Knights, which continue to grow until conflict was initiated by an alliance of Poland and Lithuania. The Teutonic Knights lost and the Western part of Prussia was ceded to Poland in 1466. In 1525 the remaining parts of Prussia became the first Protestant state in Europe, though it still had ties to Poland. In 1701, it was reorganised as a Kingdom under the leadership of Elector Frederick III, who renamed himself "King Frederick I of Prussia". It was his son, Frederick William I who started the habit of expanding the Kingdoms' borders. In the 1740s Prussia emerged as one of Europes great powers under King Frederick II, It was the twin battles of Jena and Auerstedt fought on October 14, 1806 that finally changed the fortunes of Prussia. In those battles, the Prussian Monarchy had fought against the forces of Napoleon Bonaparte of France, and lost. The Treaties of Tilsit in 1807 resulted in Prussia losing half of its territory, much of it to the Duchy of Warsaw. It was not until Napoleons defeat at Waterloo in 1815, that Prussia got most of its lost territory. In exchange for giving up more of Polands territory, Prussia was given the Rhineland, Westphalia, the Ruhr area, and other parts of the Germanic areas. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Bismarck, Prussia eventually brought the unification of Germany in 1870 in the form of the German Empire. After the dismissal of Bismarck in 1890, Emperor William II of the German Empire led a militarization of the Empire. That in turn led to the disaster of World War I, and subsequent German Revolution of 1918. After which William II abdicated both as Emperor of the German Empire and as King of Prussia. Prussia was subsequently converted to a free state within the Weimar Republic of Germany. The state of Prussia had its origins in the separate lands of the Margraviate of Brandenburg and the Duchy of Prussia. Prussia achieved its greatest importance in the 18th and 19th centuries. The Margraviate of Brandenburg developed from the medieval Northern March of the Holy Roman Empire, passing to the House of Hohenzollern in 1415.

Prince-elector George William inherited the Duchy of Prussia in 1618, uniting Brandenburg and Prussia under one ruler; the elector's state became known as Brandenburg-Prussia. The Kingdom of Prussia was created when Elector Frederick III assumed the title of Frederick I, King in Prussia, on 18 January 1701. Prussia ceased to be a kingdom after the fall of the German Empire resulting from World War I, becoming instead the Free State of Prussia. The state of Prussia was abolished in 1947 following World War II. After Germany lost the Great War to End All Wars, most of Prussia's land was taken by mean, greedy Allies, such as the evil /pol/es.

During this time, Prussia began to grow in military power under Frederick William. By 1701, it was elevated to become the Kingdom of Prussia. Prussia proved itself to be a European great power following the events of the Seven Years' War under the leadership of Frederick the Great, however was defeated during the Napoleonic Wars. In 1848, with the outbreak of the Revolutions of 1848, King Frederick William IV was the initial monarchistic candidate for the new unified state of Germany, however it was decided that Ludwig I of Bavaria should become the king. Prussia excluded itself from the unification of Germany due to it's fear of German liberalism and the loss of Prussia's power. Fearing the rising power of France, Austria, and Germany, the Prussians joined the United Kingdom and the Russian Empire in forming the Triple Alliance in 1901. France, Austria, and Germany countered that by forming the Triple Entente in 1907. In 1914, when World War I broke out, the Prussians soon fought the Germans and Austrians on multiple fronts, however with supplements of Russian forces and the strength of the Prussian armies, the Germans and Austrians were defeated by the Allies by late 1918. With the war over, the Prussians began to look at more democratic and liberal politics in their government. King Wilhelm II was unwilling to reform the absolute monarchy and relinquish some of his power, however this would spell uprisings in his kingdom. With inspiration from the Russian Civil War, many began to take up arms to rebel, and by 1921, the Prussian Civil War began. Wilhelm fled to one of his colonies after the outbreak of the war and his son commanded the fighting along side him. With British support and King Wilhelm compromising with the liberals, the war was over by 1924. As a consequence of the war and liberal reforms, Prussia's military power was worn down and not what it was. In 1939, the Nazis invaded Prussia after it refused to join them in the Anschluss the year before. King Wilhelm, who was now significantly older, was granted asylum in the United Kingdom and fled to London. The Nazis incorporated Prussia into their emprie until 1945 when the nation was defeated. While Prussia was occupied primarily by Soviet forces, it was debated whether Prussia would become a communist puppet or to return to the monarchy. It was ultimately decided by the Allied Powers and the United Nations that Prussia and it's southern neighbor Czechoslovakia would serve as buffer-zones between the Warsaw Pact and the European Union. While unofficially neutral, Prussia sympathized more with the EU than the Warsaw Pact. Today, Prussia still retains it's monarchy and is one of the most economically and politically stable nations in Europe. After their stint as agents of the Gods of Earthly Punishments, they went back to Prussia where, disguised as ignorant barbarians, they slaughtered the Romans for years and years, until it got boring. They then went and sacked Rome, establishing a tradition of bringing a world of hurt to the enemy. The Romans didn't take to this, and began to fight back. Growing bored, the Prussians then bet the other drunken Germans that they couldn't invade Rome. This freed their lands of the other Germans. Thus fell the Romans. During the Middle Ages, as part of the Holy Roman Empire, the Prussians shared their lands with the Teutonic Knights, an army of displaced crusaders who were looking for a place to pitch up. The two eventually fused to create the New Prussians. They then came under control of the Hohenzollern family who were a family of pointy-helmet-makers from Nuremberg. Following the Middle Ages and various codpiece implants, the Prussians were called upon to deal with a feisty little Italian named Napoleon. Being the nice guys that they were, and always enjoying humiliating the French wherever possible, they let the British "beat" the French at the battle of Waterloo. The Prussians made a good show of it; to prove that they were the manliest of men, the Prussian commander Blücher wrestled his own horse, four crocodiles, and eighteen elephants, bare-handed, and all at once. After winning he asked for a tall glass of blood schnapps and a shot of whiskey, resurrected his horse, and went on to beat the French at a rumble-your-sausage competition, which ultimately led to the annexation of Bavaria, a fact the inhabitants of the latter haven't forgotten to this day, and thus despise everything that comes from north of the river Main. The Prussians decided to spread rumors about how Austrians don't know shit, causing Baron Von Trapp to declare war, which gave Prussia the much-wanted opportunity to kick Austria's ass for seven weeks and give Von Trapp the most humiliating (and incredibly painful) wedgie the wimpy pianist had ever received. The Prussians proved many times that the rest of Germany are weak and cowardly pussies, so they decided to unite Germany and raise him as Prussia's little brother. As it happens, Prussians also tend to be more intelligent than other Germans, so they were the first of the German states to realize that either the bloody French, Russia or Austria would invade them. After 1871, the Prussians decided the rest of Germany needed to get its act together, and united the country through various cybernetic implants and the promise of a "buy-one-get-one-free war of your choosing in a foreign land". As a Prussian always honors a promise, the Prussians started the First World War. After handing out various door prizes and going on many sightseeing trips, the Prussians settled down for a while...until 1939, when the Prussians decided they wanted more of a challenge, and invaded all of Europe, parts of Asia and Africa, and shook their fists at the very moon. They also invaded Russia—which proved to be their undoing, for, as has been shown time and time again, any country that willingly drinks vodka is mad as shit. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, Prussia emerged as one of the great powers of Europe, playing critical and decisive roles in many continental conflicts, such as the Seven Years' War, the Napoleonic Wars, and the Revolutions of 1848. In the mid-1860s, Count Otto von Bismarck's aggressive foreign policy positioned Prussia as the main focus of emerging German nationalist sentiments, upstaging its only real rival for that role, Austria. With the support of the rulers of most small and mid-sized German states, Prussia formed the nucleus of German unification in 1870, creating the new nation-state of Germany and elevating King Wilhelm I to his imperial office of Wilhelm I, German Emperor. Prussia continued to exist as a constituent kingdom within the German Empire, with Hohenzollern emperors retaining the Prussian kingship. This arrangement ended in 1918 following the end of World War I, when Wilhelm II, German Emperor abdicated both his imperial and royal titles. Following Wilhelm's abdication, Prussia proclaimed itself a Free State (ie, a democratic republic) within the Weimar Republic. Despite its history of relative authoritarianism, Prussia was actually an exemplar of democracy in between-the-wars Germany, with its state government being the only German legislature of any significant size in which pro-democracy parties enjoyed comfortable majorities throughout the period of the Weimar Republic's existence. However, following the election of Adolf Hitler as Chancellor in 1933, Prussia was quickly converted into a totalitarian state, with a highly centralized Nazi government led by its unelected federal commissioner, Hermann Göring. This would be the final government in Prussia's 400-year history; following Germany's defeat in World War II and subsequent Allied occupation, Prussian territory was divided among three of the four occupation zones and that part of Germany that was annexed to Poland. Thus, it was not possible for Prussia to exist as a state in either East or West Germany. Following German reunification in 1990, the state was not reconstituted; today, what was once Prussian territory is divided among nine German states as well as sections of Poland and Russia's Kaliningrad Oblast. Prussia itself has only been “German” since the 13th Century, when the Teutonic Knights carved out a new Christian state on the Baltic coast. The present Kingdom of Prussia is a new state, the result of a union between the duchies of Brandenburg and Prussia, and it is a Kingdom only because the current ruler, Elector Frederick III has decided to improve his status to that of King! In doing so, however, he has been careful not to offend the Holy Roman Emperor, the Archduke of Austria, and calls himself the King “in” Prussia, not the King “of” Prussia. The form of words is a fig leaf: Frederick is King. And he is the king of a potentially powerful and influential Protestant nation, a centre of gravity within “the Germanies” for all those who would look elsewhere for a lead than Catholic Austria. The Prussians believe – not without reason – that their virtues as a people can carry them through any trouble: martial discipline, sacrifice, a sense of order, but this sense of duty should not be confused with ignorance or intolerance, no matter what others may say. Prussians have always had to fight, but that has made them competent, not bloodthirsty. They have the potential to become a great continental power thanks to their martial traditions, many of which can be traced back to the Teutonic Knights. These could form the basis of a truly world-beating army. Under the right guidance, they could unite the German-speaking peoples into a single entity, dominate the Baltic and, perhaps, extend their reach far beyond the confines of Central Europe. The glory and power of Prussia is a thing of the past, not the present. In 1812 the once mighty Prussia has been conquered and is now, forcibly, allied to the French. The military catastrophe of 1806 was a bitter lesson for the Prussian military, and the Prussian state overall, but a bitter lesson is still a lesson. Prussia learned from it and is now ready to once again rise to glory and power. The Prussian commitment to the campaign in Russia is half-hearted at most. Instead she is sharpening her swords, ready to rise against the French invader, should Napoleon’s army lose its war in Russia. Gone are the slow and uninspired troops of 1806, replaced by a newly reformed army, supplemented with Landwehr, Prussian militia, fighting for their homes, families and country. The success of France has lasted for too long and her generals have become too self-confident and proud. Now it is Prussia’s time to return the favour from 1806 and teach the French a lesson they will remember for a long time. His username means "the old troll" in German. He has a habit of commenting to almost every single thread, which annoyed (and possibly still annoys) some memers. He seems to type as if he were actually Prussia posting on the Internet. Once dated a Belgium but then he commited the mistake of referring lewdly to her, which prompted an angry and epic beating from Netherlands
