	Prussia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Prussia as a state was de facto abolished by the Nazis in 1934, de jure by the Allied Powers in 1947.
		From the late 18th century the expanded Prussia dominated North Germany politically, economically and in terms of population size, and was the core of the unified German Empire formed in 1871.
		Prussia's democratic constitution was suspended in 1932 as a result of a coup by Germany's conservative Chancellor Franz von Papen, marking the effective end of German democracy.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Prussia
		The beginnings of the state are connected with the bloody struggles and with the wonderful cultural and missionary labours by means of which the territories on the Baltic between the Elbe and Memel were wrested in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries from the Slavs and won for Germany and the Catholic Church.
		For a considerable length of time Napoleon tempted Prussia by holding out the hope of this acquisition, and in 1806 by the plan of a North German Confederation of which Prussia was to be the leader, Frederick William II even sought to gain territory in southern Germany.
		The State was furthermore consolidated by gaining the sympathetic support of the teachers and professors as an after effect of the patriotic movement in the War of Liberation and partly owing to its energy in the cause of education.

	Ducal Prussia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Ducal Prussia was between (1525–1657) a fief of Poland, created as a result of war (1520–1525) between Poland and the Teutonic Order.
		Royal Prussia was held by the king of Poland, who also was the feudal lord of Ducal Prussia.
		Thus Ducal Prussia lost its status as a Polish fief and became a part of Brandenburg-Prussia, but not part of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation.

	Nation, Prussia
		The democratic state, as we see it realized almost everywhere at the beginning of the twentieth century, rests on the identity of the rulers and the ruled, of the state and of the people.
		The contrast between authorities and people which characterizes the authoritarian state is not quite identical with the one between prince and people that characterizes the princely state; still less is it identical with the contrast between the prince and the estates in the old estate system.
		It is common to overlook the fact that the position Of Prussia in Germany and in Europe always remained insecure until the Hohenzollerns succeeded in building a rather large contiguous state territory, first by the annexation of Silesia, which at the time was half Slavic, and then by the acquisition of Posnania and West Prussia.

		In 1618 the Duchy was inherited by the Elector John Sigismund of Brandenburg, who with approval of Polish crown was at the same time ruler of Prussia and Brandenburg, a German state centered on Berlin and ruled since the 15th century by the Hohenzollern dynasty.
		During this period the formidable Prussian military machine and efficient state bureaucracy were founded, institutions which were to form the foundations of the German state until 1945, and (in some respects) of the GDR after that.
		In 1996 a proposal to merge Berlin and Brandenburg was rejected by Brandenburg voters, though this was not seen as a decision relating to the revival of Prussia as a state but rather as an attempt to restore the old Brandenburg, since Berlin had never been a city-state before 1945.

	Ban of Jehovah's Witnesses by the Prussian Minister of Internal Affairs. Berlin, June 24, 1933
		Under the guise of scientific Bible study, the International Bible Students Association and its subsidiary organizations are conducting an unmistakable smear campaign, in spoken and in written form, against state and church institutions.
		Their methods of combat are marked by a fanatical influencing of their followers; with considerable financial backup they gain momentum in their Bolshevik subversion of our culture.
		The Association of Bible Students and its associated societies thus promote Communism also in the field of politics, and they as an organization are about to become a catchall for all kinds of antistate elements.* Organized and determined Communist activities are effected from the ranks of the Communist followers of the movement.

		"She may possibly have been bought by the Jews in order to find out how the state authorities respond to such a case".(39) Schuckmann's suspicions confirm the intuition that led me to pursue these materials, namely, that conversions to Judaism were awkward test cases for the Christian state of Prussia.
		He preferred to state -- wrongly, as we have seen -- that it was not permissible under Prussian law or to finesse the issue bureaucratically by placing insurmountable obstructions in the way of would-be converts.
