The German Confederation was a loose association of 39 German-speaking states that existed from 1815 to 1866, established by the Congress of Vienna following the Napoleonic Wars. It aimed to promote political stability and economic cooperation among its member states but was largely ineffective due to internal divisions and the dominance of Austria and Prussia. The Confederation played a significant role in the nationalist movements of the 19th century but ultimately dissolved after the Austro-Prussian War, leading to the unification of Germany under Prussian leadership.
