Why does prussia call germany west

During this time there was increased emigration by Germans to the United States in search of greater economic opportunities as well as political, religious, and personal freedom. The combination of these two events propelled the first official acts of recognition between the United States and various smaller German states as they negotiated and signed treaties, conventions, and agreements to regulate trade, commerce, navigation, naturalization, and inheritance rights.

The first effort at unifying the German states came in the revolutionary year Once news of the February revolution in Paris spread, many felt that the time was finally at hand for German unification. Rural riots broke out in the weeks after February and spread to the urban areas.

Throughout the German states revolutionaries advocated for freedom of the press, a national militia, a national German parliament, and trial by jury. Other ideas that were championed during the heady days of were the abolition of privilege of the aristocracy, the creation of constitutions in several of the German states, a more fair system of taxation, and freedom of religion. On May 18, , the German National Assembly met at Frankfurt am Main, representing the first assembly to be freely elected by the German people.

Yet, despite the election of an imperial vice regent Reichsverweser , the government was flawed from the beginning by its lack of a strong executive power. By the autumn of the revolution disintegrated and hope of fully unifying the German states was extinguished for the time being. The next attempt at German unification, a successful one, was undertaken by Otto von Bismarc k, the Prime Minister of Prussia. German unification was achieved by the force of Prussia, and enforced from the top-down, meaning that it was not an organic movement that was fully supported and spread by the popular classes but instead was a product of Prussian royal policies.

The first war of German unification was the Danish War, begun over the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein. Bismarck allied with Austria to fight the Danes in a war to protect the interests of Holstein, a member of the German Confederation. This brief war fought over the course of mere weeks pitted Prussia and her allies against Austria and other German states.

Prussia won and directly annexed some of the German states that had sided with Austria such as Hanover and Nassau. In an act of leniency, Prussia allowed some of the larger Austrian allies to maintain their independence, such as Baden and Bavaria. In Bismarck created the North German Confederation, a union of the northern German states under the hegemony of Prussia.

Several other German states joined, and the North German Confederation served as a model for the future German Empire. The third and final act of German unification was the Franco-Prussian War of , orchestrated by Bismarck to draw the western German states into alliance with the North German Confederation.

From this point forward, foreign policy of the German Empire was made in Berlin, with the German Kaiser who was also the King of Prussia accrediting ambassadors of foreign nations. Relations were severed when the U. Middleto n informed U. Minister to Prussia Andrew J. In the present day while living with his brother, Prussia freeloads off of Austria and has a habit of stalking him.

Also, in Prussia's blog, it is implied that either Prussia and Austria are both living together in Germany's house, and that Austria hangs around the brothers very often to sort out their messes and spends a large fraction of his time with them.

In the Maria Theresa arc of the anime, Prussia often attempted to make Austria beg for mercy during the battle. He also mentioned wanting a painter to come and paint Austria's face after he had lost the first battle, so that his failure could be etched into history. Though the two are brothers, they do not appear together in most of the strips as Prussia's earlier appearances were before the foundation of the German Empire. Germany is shown to be annoyed by his brother's wild attitude and his tendency to buy strange things, as seen in the April Fools' blog event and drama CD.

Prussia refers to their familial tie as "unsavory". It's revealed, in his and Germany's Counting Sheep CD, that he does find himself wanting to do "big brother" things for him, sometimes. The two have had a rivalry since childhood, when Hungary believed herself to be a boy as did Prussia.

It is said that she loathes Prussia due to him making fun of her hardships since that time. She is also known to hit him with her frying pan when she catches him bothering Austria, and had appeared at his bedside fully armed with a spear to threaten him to give back Silesia after he had seized it. Prussia had also noticeably groped Hungary when they were children, though he was unaware of her true gender at the time and simply thought he'd grabbed a weak spot.

After realizing the truth, he became disgusted and upset that he might have committed a sin, and was utterly horrified by his actions. His realization led him to confessing his "sin" in a chapel and begging God for forgiveness. Prussia is shown to like Italy very much, only referring to him as " Italia-chan ", considering him 'cute' and even going as far as to ask him on a date in the drama adaptation of his blog event, only for Italy to be oblivious to his question, having been fixated on Prussia's bird.

In Prussia's Cleaning game, choosing to go to Italy's house to clean resulted in it being stated that he had clear ulterior motives. Upon arrival he found him sleeping something he said he would obviously doing at the time , and began to stroke his head, saying that he was reminded of the Risorgimento as he did so, happily dreaming about him and Italy on a gondola in Venice. While their only canonical meeting was in Prussia's Cleaning game, in which he helps him clean after Japan misinterpreted his demands as enthusiasm, Himaruya has stated that their relationship is near inseparable, and that it was something he wanted to show in Prussia's April Fools blog, but didn't get to.

It's also notable, that Japan calls him " Prussia-kun ", emphasizing this. Prussia possibly goes to Japan's house very often, as he said that he "usually" has tea and manjuu when he goes. When they finished cleaning, to show his gratitude, Japan gave him the cakes he had previously been asking for, however the work exhausted Prussia, so he could "only" eat Also stated in the game, was Prussia's enjoyment of reading manga he had attempted to learn to make his own, but he sneezed and abandoned the project , something he possibly got from befriending Japan.

I see no reason not to hate Russia if i was Prussia. Sound familiar? Before you yell out Kaliningrad Oblast, think. What else was under Russian control at the time? Also Kaliningrad Oblast was a part of Russia and less of a satellite state. Comic evidence This tiny tidbit of information is one that practically confirms my theory. Like the comic about how Germany was made, the kicker comes in at the end. There it is.

This is all one big reference to the Berlin wall and Russian occupation of East Germany. East Nostalgie? Need I say more? And even more reasons for Prussia to hate Russia. Sounds like when Russia forced harsher rules on East Germany when the citizens tried to flee to the west. There is nothing more to be said. Prussia is East Germany.

He is like the Romano of Germany and look at that. Still alive because he still represents something. And because he is just that awesome.
