		The ruler of Brandenburg and Prussia became the son-in-law of the leader of the Calvinistic party, the Elector Palatinate, and his daughter married Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden.
		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 ability of Prussia to accomplish the difficult task of defeating the attacks of Austria was probably due to the expert knowledge and clearness of the chief representative of its economic policy, Rudolf von Delbrück, and to the fact that Hanover joined the Zollverein in Sept., 1851.

		Prussia emerges as a state that was set up for expansion, in which the military played a unique role and "secondary virtues" such as discipline and obedience were held in high regard.
		And not simply because Prussia, as the largest constituent state by far, practised a hegemony guaranteed by the constitution, but also because it was able to exercise a sustained, or rather deforming influence on the political culture of the empire.
		Particularly impressive are the chapter on Pietism in Brandenburg-Prussia, on the Jewish Enlightenment in Berlin at the tail end of the eighteenth century and the state philosophy of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, which had a heady influence on an entire generation of educated Prussians in the years after 1815.
