Where is prussia in todays maps?

Prussia is a country that was dissolved after World War II, so it is no longer on the maps. However, much of Eastern Europe was at one time or another part of Prussia and its many incarnations. If you are wondering about Prussia directly before it was dissolved, it would be between Germany and Poland on modern maps, and a bit on the coast of the Baltic sea where modern day Kaliningrad Oblast is now.


Was austria ever part of prussia?

Usually not. However, during the Seven Years' War a part of Prussia briefly became Russian from 1758 until 1763. After World War 2 a part of Prussia became Russian again. This "Russian Prussia" is called Kaliningrad Oblast. The other parts of (Old Baltic) Prussia are now part of Poland and Lithuania. Prussia has two meanings: The (German) Kingdom of Prussia on one hand and Old/Baltic Prussia on the other hand. The Kingdom of Prussia got its name from the original Baltic Prussia (in Old Prussian language it is called "Prūsa"). The original Baltic Prussia was the easternmost province of the Kingdom of Prussia. That Province of Prussia inside the Kingdom of Prussia was most of the time parted into East Prussia and West Prussia.
