	Prussia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kingdom of Prussia dominated northern Germany politically, economically, and in terms of population, and was the core of the unified North German Confederation formed in 1867, which became the German Empire or Deutsches Reich in 1871.
		Prussia's reward in 1815 at the Congress of Vienna was the recovery of her lost territories, as well as the whole of the Rhineland, Westphalia, and some other territories.
		Prussia was extended on 1 April 1937, for instance, by the incorporation of the Free and Hanseatic City of Lübeck.

		Prussia has only seventeen votes in the federal council, or less than a third of the total number, but its influence is practically assured by the fact that the small northern states almost invariably vote with it.
		History.—The name of Prussia is derived from the dukedom of Prussia (the present province of East Prussia), which was raised into a kingdom by the emperor in favour of Frederick III., elector of Brandenburg, on the 18th of January 1701.
		The indifference with which Prussia relinquished to France German lands on the left bank of the Rhine, compared with her eagerness to increase her Slavonic territories on the east, was certainly one of the great blunders of the reign.

	Prussia (region) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Prussia was a region in the Polish kingdom and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from the 15th century until 1660, consisting of a Royal Prussia, a semi-autonomous province, and Ducal Prussia, a vassal state that paid hommage to the Polish king.
		In 1618 the Duchy of Prussia and the Margraviate of Brandenburg were joined under the same ruler and became known as Brandenburg-Prussia, until 1701 when it was elevated and renamed as the Kingdom of Prussia.
		By the Treaty of Versailles some territories that had belonged to Prussia and the German Empire were ceded to the Second Polish Republic, coinciding with provisions of the Treaty of Wehlau that had stipulated that land would revert to the Polish crown, when the Hohenzollern rule expired.

		Prussia began as a small territory in what was later called West and East Prussia, which is now northern Poland, the Kaliningrad exclave of Russia, and the KlaipÄ—da Region of Lithuania.
		Although Prussia was predominantly a Protestant German state, there were substantial Roman Catholic populations in the Rhineland, while a number of districts in Posen, Silesia, West Prussia, and the Warmia regions of East Prussia had populations of predominantly Catholic Poles.
		During this period Prussia expanded its territories to the east during the collapse of the Kingdom of Poland in the so-called Partitions of Poland, between 1772 and 1795, which brought territory as far east as Warsaw under Prussian rule.

	The Divine Right of the Hohenzollern
		Even Pomerania, whose feudal lords were the margraves of Brandenburg from the time of the 12th century, had not been entirely incorporated in the kingdom of Prussia in the year 1815, and by the time the electors of Brandenburg tried to appropriate it piecemeal, it had long since ceased to be a slavic state.
		Based on this, Prussian statesmen and historians have tried their utmost to get the world to accept and understand that Prussia is the military state par excellence, from which it follows that the Divine Right of the Hohenzollern is the right of the sword, the right of conquest.
		The Dukedom of Prussia was acquired by the following three measures: first, through secularisation; secondly, by marriage, and moreover, in an equivocal manner: the Elector Joachim Frederick married the younger daughter, and his son, John Sigismund, married the older daughter of the insane Duke Albrecht of Prussia, who had no male heirs.
