	German Confederation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The German Confederation (German: Deutscher Bund) was the association of Central European states created by the Congress of Vienna in 1815 to organize the surviving states of the Holy Roman Empire, which had been abolished in 1806.
		The Confederation was dissolved in 1866 after the Austro-Prussian War, and was 'succeeded' in 1866 by the Prussian-dominated North German Confederation.
		All the constituent states of the German Confederation became part of the Kaiserreich in 1871, except the Dutch province of Limburg and the presently independent countries remaining in the Austro-Hungarian Empire (Austria, Czech Republic, as well as parts of Italy, Poland, Slovenia), Luxembourg (except the part lost to Belgium in 1839), and Liechtenstein.

	German Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The German Empire is the name conventionally given in English to the German state from the time of the proclamation of Wilhelm I of Prussia as German Emperor (January 18, 1871) to the abdication of Wilhelm II (November 9, 1918).
		German colonial efforts from 1884 brought a relative small overseas empire compared to those of Britain and France, although in the Herero Wars it shared with those empires the phenomenon of armed conflict between natives and colonials.
		Subsequent German foreign policy initiatives (notably the initiation of a large battle fleet under the naval laws of 1898 and 1900) drove Britain into diplomatic alignment (the Entente) with a Franco-Russian alliance already in the offing at the time of Bismarck's fall.
