East Prussia was part of the German state of Prussia during World War 2. It was actually part of Prussia from 1772 until 1829 and 1878 until 1945.

Prussia ceased to exist at the end of World War 2. Most of the population of East Prussia, Pommernia and Silesia was expelled and resettled in West Germany in 1945-47.
Germany lost a lot of its eastern territories including east prussia.
Well, Prussia's part during World War II was nothing... Russia played a huge role in WWII
East Prussia After World War 1 * Most of Posen and West Prussia * A part of Upper Silesia After World War 2 * All of Silesia not already transferred to Poland * Most of Pommerania * The southern two-thirds of East Prussia * The eastern part of Brandenburg * All areas of Posen and West Prussia not already transferred to Poland In 1945-47 most of the German-speaking population was expelled from these areas and sent to West Germany.
Prussia
Because the victorious Allies of World War 2 wanted it that way that Prussia is part of Poland, Russia, and Lithuania.
The Germans invaded from the west, from the south & from East Prussia in the North. The Russians entered from the east.
They split it into the East and the West. East: Commonist West: Democratic
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.
