Prussia originated as a region inhabited by the Baltic Prussians, a group of pagan tribes, in what is now northeastern Poland and the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia. In the 13th century, the Teutonic Knights, a Catholic military order, conquered the area and established the State of the Teutonic Order. Over time, the region evolved into the Duchy of Prussia, which became a Protestant state in the 16th century, and later transformed into the Kingdom of Prussia in 1701, playing a significant role in European history and the unification of Germany. Prussia ultimately ceased to exist as a political entity after World War II, when its territories were divided between Poland, Russia, and other nations.

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.
