 Stiftung Schloss Neuhardenberg Heinrich Friedrich Karl Reichsfreiherr vom und zum Stein
Stein was born in Nassau on October 26, 1757.
The imperial baron was quickly promoted in the administration of the western provinces of Prussia: in 1784 he became director of the Westphalian mining offices, in 1788 director of the war and domain chamber of Kleve and Mark, in 1796 presiding official of Münster and Hamm.
Stein retired to his ancestral castle in Nassau and composed his Nassau Memorandum on the reform of the administration; the most important point in his reform ideas was the demand for more self-administration of the communities and provinces, thus securing the participation of all citizens in the conduct of government.

With Austria's position on the continent now intact and ostensibly secure under its reactionary premier Klemens von Metternich, the Habsburg empire would serve as a barrier to contain the emergence of Italian and German nation-states as well, aside from containing France.
Inspired by the Napoleonic organization of German and Italian principalities, the ostensibly liberal reforms of Karl August von Hardenberg and Count Stein were thoroughly conservative, enacted to preserve aristocratic privilege and institutions during an era of reform, reaction, and revolution opened up by the French Revolution by forging a competent national army.

While this was actually the story of a robber baron of the 16th century it really represented Goethe's youthful protest against the established order and his demand for intellectual freedom.
Goethe's invitation in 1775 to the court of Duke Karl August at Weimar was a turning point in the literary life of Germany.
Travels to Marienbad (Bohemia): there he meets Amalie von Levetzow and her three daughters, among them the 18 year old Ulrike, who, Goethe (who now is 72 years old!!!) proposes a marriage; after first having it thought to be a joke, she then refuses.

 Morganatic and Unequal Marriages in German Law
Heinrich "the illustrious", margrave of Meissen and landgrave of Thuringen (1218-88), had a third marriage in 1267 or 1268 with Elisabeth von Maltitz, the daughter of a ministerial.
Reinhard von Hanau married Adelheit von Münzenberg, the daughter of a ministerial: a diploma of Emperor Rudolph I in 1273 declared her free and any children of this marriage to be "nobiles et ingenuos de utroque parente".
Karl was thus the only surviving son and succeeded his father in Durlach, without any opposition from the agnates (in particular the two sons of Bernhard of Baden-Baden, who were under guardianship).

In 1774 he became involved in an uncomfortably close friendship with Maximiliane Euphrosine von La Roche Brentano, daughter of the novelist Sophie von La Roche and future mother of the poet Clemens Brentano, while she was adjusting with difficulty to her marriage to Peter Anton Brentano, a wealthy Frankfurt merchant.
Karl August relived him of all official obligations, except the directorship of the court theather, which was officially established in 1791, and of libraries and natural-historical and artistic collections in the duchy, including those at the University of Jena.
Most severe among these was the rupture with Frau von Stein, who could not forgive his having left her -let alone his open installation of a mistress, Christiane Vulpius, in his house shortly after his return.

 Prussia:   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
During the 19th century, Chancellor Otto von Bismarck pursued a policy of uniting the German principalities into a "Lesser Germany" which would exclude the Austrian Empire.
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.
In response to this defeat, reformers such as Stein and Hardenberg set about modernizing the prussian state, including the liberation of peasants from serfdom, the emancipation of Jews and making full citizens of them, and the institution of self-administration in municipalities.
