Germany came from the unification of a large number of formerly independent states including Prussia, Bavaria, Saxony, Wurtemburg, Hesse, and 34 other loosely affiliated states (German 'Lander').

The leading German power before the mid-1800s was Austria. The Austro-Prussian War of 1866 made it clear that Prussia had emerged as the leader of the German states. Prussia took the lead in creating a unified Germany and the German nation was declared in 1871.
