At its height in the 19th century, Prussia encompassed about two-thirds of modern Germany, including significant territories such as Brandenburg, Pomerania, Silesia, and the Rhineland. The Kingdom of Prussia played a central role in the unification of Germany in 1871 and was a dominant influence in German politics and culture. After World War I and the Treaty of Versailles, Prussian territories were significantly reduced, ultimately leading to the dissolution of Prussia as a political entity after World War II. Today, the historical regions that were once part of Prussia are distributed among several modern German states.
