Why did Prussia fall when it was a world superpower?
DominicGuyegp7642
Prussia did not fall; it became the German Empire through the annexation of all of the German states (sans Austria). The German Empire, which was the most powerful country in Europe in 1914, was ultimately defeated in World War I for several reasons. Probably the most significant reasons that the German Empire was defeated was the entry of the United States in 1917, the effective destruction of the Germany's ally the Ottoman Empire, and resource exhaustion at home. The Treaty of Versailles further solidified Germany's weakened position and forced it to remain less powerful.
