It has been called the "Seven Weeks War" or the "Austro-Prussian War".
Well, Prussia's part during World War II was nothing... Russia played a huge role in WWII
The Seven Years' War may be viewed as a continuation of the War of the Austrian Succession, in which King Frederick II of Prussia had gained the rich province of Silesia. Empress Maria Theresa of Austria had signed the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle (1748) only in order to gain time to rebuild her military forces and to forge new alliances, which she did with remarkable success. The political map of Europe had been redrawn in a few years. During the so-called Diplomatic Revolution of 1754, century-old enemies France, Austria and Russia formed a single alliance against Prussia. Prussia had the protection only of Great Britain, whose ruling dynasty saw its ancestral Hanoverian possession as being threatened by France. In Great Britain's alliance with Prussia the two powers complemented each other. The British already had the most formidable navy in Europe, while Prussia had the most formidable land force on continental Europe, allowing Great Britain to focus its soldiers towards its colonies. The Austrian army had undergone an overhaul according to the Prussian system. Maria Theresa, whose knowledge of military affairs shamed many of her generals, had pressed relentlessly for reform. Her interest in the welfare of the soldiers had gained her their undivided respect. The second cause for war arose from the heated colonial struggle between the British Empire and French Empire which, as they expanded, met and clashed with one another on two continents. oh and you suck :p
Maria Theresa's right to rule Austria was challenged by Frederick II of Prussia, who sought to undermine her authority and legitimacy. He invaded Silesia in 1740, sparking the War of the Austrian Succession, which was fueled by disputes over the Pragmatic Sanction that recognized her as the rightful heir. Other European powers, including France and Spain, also questioned her rule, seeking to exploit the situation for their own gain.

The Seven Years War came about due to competition among the powers in Europe. Britain competed with France and Spain for colonies and trade. Austria struggled with Prussia for Holy Roman Empire dominance. The war consisted of multiple sieges and towns being torched. The war ended with the Treaty of Paris, with Britain coming out of it far ahead of the others.
