    And up to this day some Austrians tend to get mad, when you hint at the fact, that they are part of the German people, as their last emperor even said himself, because they are salty over the lost fraternal war. :-p

      +Disko H That analogy is showing either a complete disregard for English-American history or for the German-Austrian one.
      As +MutantKitten already hinted at...
      If Austria would've won the fraternal war against Prussia they most likely would've been the leading force of a united "greater Germany", as this was the other idea of a unified Germany around next to the "lesser Germany" one which won out with the Prussians defeating Austria in said war. Another one of the disputes that played a role there was Protestant Christian Northern Germany against Catholic Christian Southern Germany.
      Anyways... My comment was just poking fun from a "Piefke"/"Saupreuße" ("sow Prussian"), which is how Austrians refer to Germans due to the fraternal war when they poke fun at us, towards the Austrian Schluchtenscheißer ("valley shitters"). :p

      @@Celrador I don't think Austria or Prussia wanted a unified Germany though, until Bismarck came around - so even if they won, Austria would probably have tried to maintain dominance without unification instead of establishing a Greater Germany imo - unless someone in the upper echelon of Austrian politics became pro-unification

    3:15 A small sidenote here. Notice how Western Europe looked mostly the same in the 19th century as it does today. Central Europe (that is, Germany and Italy in this case) existed of many small states which united. And Eastern Europe existed of huge empires which would all be shattered into small pieces in the 20th century.

    +The Attitude *Funny thing is that the Czechs, a non Germanic, Slavic people, were the most dominant kingdom in the Holy Roman Empire in the high middle ages before it unified with a Germanic Austria *
    It was not "the Czechs" though. At some point the Luxemburgs and Habsburgs used to be German kings/emperors and one of their domains was Bohemia. The Czech people hardly had anything to contribute since the Přemyslids and Jan Hus later.

    At the Congress of Vienna (1815), Austria was already trying to gain power over areas outside the German-speaking area. Prussia tried to gain power over areas within the German-speaking area.
    Prussia was able to increase its power in Germany, but Austria had to contend with many national movements outside the German-speaking area.
    Prussia used Austria as an ally, but a short time later Prussia kicked Austria out of German affairs.

    I really like all of the stuff that you are doing and appreciate anyone attempting to teach history in a fun manner. However, if I may make one piece of advice to you, all of the W's in German are pronounced as V's. With this in mind, it would actually be pronounced as "Schlesvig" when you read "Schleswig". Also, I understand and support the idea of doing short videos as to keep the attention of an audience, but I wish you could have elaborated on the, "Kulturkampf" along with how he handled socialists in the nation a bit more due to how I feel as though it was a few examples of Bismarck's excellence as a Chancellor/Prime Minister.
    All in all, I really like all of the work you are doing and can't wait to see more, I'm also greatly excited by your flag history series coming up soon as well. Needless to say that you have my subscription and that I hope you the best with your work.

His claim to the rhineland is also what started the tensions between prussia and france in the first place.

So you got the maps right, but the order should have been larger eastern part then appearance of the western Rhineland provinces.

      +Huw Carey I tend to get the information from a bunch of different places. I don't want to give the impression that I just sit and read numerous books, but instead I read encyclopaedias, brief histories etc. first and then flesh it out using google books. I find that a lot of books focus on one aspect of the conflict and not really explain what was actually happening. For instance a lot on the Boer Wars a lot of books will talk about the damage caused in Britain, books on Napoleon like to talk about his personality and books on the German Empire talk about Bismarck relationship with the Emperor, growth in industry etc.

      We even know the correct order because of the letters written in the red field.

    At the time of the new imperialism; when Africa became devided between the Great Powers ( BerlinConference 1884-1885) another German Identity developed. The Germans, industrial already a bit further then Identity wise, also wantedTo became a world Power and said colonies therefore would be essential. So the "second" common Identity ( again more in Prussia and other industrial regions) was all about colonies and led to the first world war.

    After the first world war Germany was solely blamed to have caused the war. It was disarmed, the colonies were taken, Prussia had to give up land, the reparation Payments were huge.Compared to other "European wars" for example the thirty years war or the Napolionic wars, where at the end just borders were retreated where they were before and theBalance of Power was restored ( Peace of Westphalia/ Vienna Conference) this was a novum. Many Germans after theWar poor and having lost all they were fighting for -again to become a world Power and have colonies- couldn't find an other sense in life or an other identity except to get it all back.
