History[edit | edit source]

In the year 1226, the area known as Prussia was conquered by the Teutonic Knights, a military religious order under the Holy Roman Empire who slowly exterminated the native pagan File:Old Prussia-icon.png Old Prussian Baltic tribes with a ruthless efficiency only rivalled by the File:Templar Order-icon.png Templar Knights.

Their lineage under the Teutonic Knights provided the template for the military virtues and Ruthless Efficiency that Prussiaball (and soon Germanyball) would be renowned for.

The File:Protestant-icon.png Protestant Reformation in the early to mid-1500s saw most Prussians convert to File:Protestant-icon.png Protestantism. In 1525, File:Duchy of Prussia-icon.png Prussiaball became a hereditary duchy under Albrecht Hohenzollern, the last grandmaster of the Teutonic Knights in Prussia.

In 1657, after an invasion by the File:Swedish Empire-icon.png Swedenball, Poland-Lithuaniaball surrendered sovereignty over File:Duchy of Prussia-icon.png Ducal Prussiaball which then became the Kingdom of Prussiaball in 1701 headed by the File:County of Hohenzollern-Hechingen-icon.png Hohenzollern dynasty.
Kingdom of Prussiaball's power grew and in 1772, under King Friedrich II (Frederick the Great), consisted of the provinces of File:Margraviate of Brandenburg-icon.png Brandenburgball, File:Duchy of Pomerania-icon.png Pomeraniaball, File:West Prussia-icon.png West Prussiaball File:East Prussia-icon.png East Prussiaball, File:Duchy of Cleves-icon.png Clevesball, File:County of Mark-icon.png Markball and File:County of Ravensberg-icon.png Ravensbergball.

It was in File:Margraviate of Brandenburg-icon.png Brandenburgball that was built the site of the establishment of Prussia's new capital, File:Berlin-icon.png Berlinball, future capital of Germanyball. In 1806 it went to war with File:Napoleonic-icon.png Franceball but was defeated in 2 weeks.

A major event in German history was the defeat of Franceball in the Franco-Prussian War in 1871, making Kingdom of Prussiaball a world power. It was during this war that in 1870, Otto von Bismarck, Prussian chancellor, and exemplar of Germanic Efficiency, orchestrated the unification of the File:German Confederation-icon.png German states.

The Kaiserreich was established under Prussian leadership with Bismarck as Chancellor and File:Berlin-icon.png Berlinball as the capital. Wilhelm II, the last of the File:County of Hohenzollern-Hechingen-icon.png Hohenzollern dynasty, became Emperor of Germanyball (Kaiser) in 1888 and ruled until Germanyball's defeat in World War I.

After defeat in World War I, Germanyball was forced to give up the Danzig Corridor/Panhandle to Polandball and Danzigball once again became a free city.

This caused the province of File:East Prussia-icon.png East Prussiaball to be separated from the rest of Germanyball. The Rosenberg District was at this time contained in File:East Prussia-icon.png East Prussiaball.

After Template:GIF Germanyball's suicide in World War II, Kingdom of Prussiaball was the initial scapegoat for everything as it was accused of being militaristic, war-obsessed and the creator of Reichtangle.
