Prussia

Frederick the Great is credited for improving the Prussian army in two major ways.He refined the so-called "Processional" method of deploying troops into battle with his new "Perpendicular" model. This avoided the exposure of his troops to flank attacks. In addition, he developed his so-called " march by lines" formation which was a seamless movement allowing his battalions to be better prepared to attack an enemy's flank.

Befor Prussia was taken over after war the capital was Berlin.

Prussia was a German kingdom from 1701 to 1918. From 1871 until the defeat of Germany in World War it was the leading state of the German Empire, comprising almost two-thirds of the area of the empire.With the abdication of Wilhelm II in 1918, the Kingdom of Prussia was dissolved and replaced with the Free State of Prussia. The democratic Free State of Prussia was taken over by a Nazi coup in 1932/33. After the end of war Otto Braun, the leader of the original democratic government went to court over his ousting in order to reinstate the legal Prussian government. The Allied Occupation forces, who had taken up occupation of all of Germany, were not interested and declared Prussia abolished in 1947.

Other Answer: Yeah, what he/she said, but my ancestors of MY family were actually the head of Prussia. im not lying, they were my great grandpa's parents. :]

Other other answer: Prussia, in theory, still exists. Proof of that is the answer above. I answer this because the land doesn't make the country, the people do. You can have a country without land. But if you're going by the norm, no. Prussia does not.

They were ruled by absolute monarchs

Berlin

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.

Frederick the Great Elector of Prussia believed a large and efficient standing army was crucial for strengthening and securing his state amid the constant threats from neighboring powers. He viewed a strong military as essential for both defense and the assertion of Prussian influence in Europe. Additionally, an efficient army would enable him to maintain internal order and stability, thereby fostering economic development and centralizing his authority. This military emphasis laid the foundation for Prussia’s emergence as a significant European power.

The provinces of Alsace and Lorraine were seized by Germany as part of the settlement of the Franco-Prussian War. They were reorganized as a single province within Germany, renamed Alsace-Lorraine (Elsaß-Lothringen in German). Germany continued to control Alsace-Lorraine until the end of World War I, and then again briefly during World War II.

Prussia was crucial to the unification of Germany. Under the rule of Otto von Bismarck, Prussia engaged in and won the wars that brought together the nation states that make up Germany.

Austria and Prussia declared war on Denmark to regain the provinces of Schleswig and Holstein, which were ruled by the Danish crown but were predominantly German-speaking.

Prussia was officially dissolved in 1947.

Prussia became the largest - and dominant - constituent state of the new German Empire in 1871. After Emperor William II's overthrow/abdication in 1918 it continued as a state in the German republic and (from 1933) the Third Reich until broken up by the Nazi regime in 1935. In 1945 its territories were divided between Germany, Poland and the USSR, and in 1947 Prussia was abolished as an administrative entity by the Allies.

Frederick rejected the crown that was given to him by the Frankfurt Parliament because he wouldn't have full control over Prussia and all the rest of the state the Frankfurt Parliament would be telling him what to do hence why he turnt it down.

The noble landowners of Prussia were known as Junkers.

Germany, Poland, Russia, Lithuania, Denmark, Belgium and the Czech Republic were formally part of Prussia.
