Frederick II was the King of Prussia and a member of the House of Hohenzollern. He started the three wars between Austria and Prussia known as the Silesian wars, by attempting to claim Silesia and declaring war on the ruler of Austria over it.
Austria and Prussia emerged and rose to power.
The Prusso-Austrian war of 1864 changed the power structure within the Germanic lands and hence in Europe overall. For much of European history, Austria was the dominant German power and all the german states, (prussia included) followed their lead. When Prussia defeated Austria, Austria pulled out of German affairs and focused on their empire in the south. Prussia (with Bismarck as PM) eventually unified Germany, first through the North German confederation and finally with the German Reich, where the Prussian king became German Emperor.
The Seven Years War is also known as the French and Indian War , the Pomeranian War (between Sweden and Prussia, 1757-62) , the Third Carnatic War (Indian subcontinent, 1757-63) and the Third Silesian War (between Prussia and Austria, 1756-63) .
