Read Prussia without legend

/kloc-in the 0/7th century, the family of Brandenburg Hornzoren, the Teutonic Knights, established the kingdom of Prussia, gradually became the most powerful German country and once became one of the European powers.

Prussia's territory is scattered and lacks depth. Prussia has been eager to expand its territory since its establishment. To this end, Prussia established a powerful army. "Other countries have armies, and Prussia has armies and countries." Prussia takes everything for the army as the core, advocates religious freedom, cultural tolerance and universal education, vigorously develops the economy, encourages immigrants and establishes a relatively efficient and clean government system.

After the general election, Friedrich William, Frederick I, Frederick William I and Frederick II (frederick the great) laid a good foundation for the rise of Prussia. 1870, Prussian Prime Minister Bismarck achieved German reunification and established the German Empire, thus the history of Prussia was incorporated into German history.

Since then, Prussia, as the largest state in the empire, has gradually lost its autonomy and independence. 1920 The Prussian army was merged into Weimar * * and the National Defence Force; 1932, the Prussian government was dissolved by the central government and became the government directly under the central government.

The so-called Prussian virtue is formed by Prussia's "national interest first principle", Voltaire's "enlightenment spirit" and Germany's "Protestant ethics": honesty, self-control, discipline, diligence, obedience, frankness, justice (in their proper place), piety (but religious tolerance), frankness (strict with self-discipline), courage and orderliness. So Prussia has also become synonymous with the spirit, culture and order of modern Germany.

Germany 1945 was defeated. Among the core provinces of Prussia, the Brandenburg border area still belongs to Germany. Connersburg, the capital of East Prussia, was renamed Kaliningrad, which belonged to the former Soviet Union and now belongs to Russia. Pomerania and most of Silesia belong to Poland. German residents who once lived in the last three places were expelled and the name of Prussia was changed. 1947, the Allies announced that "the Prussian central government and its subordinate organs at all levels were dissolved immediately"; On the same day, the United Nations issued a decree that "the country in the name of Prussia officially perished and would not be recognized". According to these decrees, Germany may not form a new country in the name of Prussia.
