Description
Historical context:
Prussia (in German: Preußen /ˈpʁɔɪ̯sn̩/) was originally a territory of North-Eastern Europe partly Germanized under the control of the Teutonic Knights, but located outside the Holy Roman Empire. Prussia became the possession of a branch of the Hohenzollerns in the 16th century, then it was united with the electorate of Brandenburg (the Berlin region) in the 17th century. Prussia constituted from 1701 to 1871 an essential element of the Kingdom of Prussia, incorporated into the German Empire from 1871 (Second German Reich). In this context, the original Prussia corresponds to the province of East Prussia, especially after the First World War, when it found itself isolated from the rest of Germany.
