Little history

-The German superstate-

The german nation is gonna be 150 years old this year. this isn`t very old for a European Nation. germany had 3 empires (Reiche) and 2 Democratic Nations.
The first efforts to create a german united nations had 2 potential Nations that could take the lead. Prussia (1701–1918) and Austria (976-Today)
The First effort to unite the Nation was in 1866 in the Austrians and the southern german states had a war with Prussia and the Northern german states
The Prussians won that war and annexed northern Schleswig from the Austrians and United the Northern german states into the north german confederation (1867-1871)
In 1870 the Franco-Prussian war started. In 1871 the german forces captured Paris and won the war.
On the 18th January 1871 the iron chancellor Otto von Bismarck declared the German Empire and annexed alsace lorraine and renamed it to Reichsland Elsaß-Lothringen. This was the creation of the first United German Nation
The United Germany now created the Central Powers (Mittelmächte) with the dual Monarchy Austra-Hungary and the United Italian Kingdom. it was a Economic-Military Alliance. Italy left the alliance in 1914 and was replaced with the Ottoman Empire and Bulgarian Tsardom
In 1919 after ww1 Germany turned into a presidential Republic also known as the Weimar Republic (The offical name of the country still was German Empire) The Republic was a econimic disaster and it ruined the Econemy of the whole world
In the elections 1933 the NSDAP (National Sozialistische Arbeiter Partei Deutschlands) won the election and turned Germany into a one Party state or you could call it a "Führerstaat" (Leaderstate) with Adolf Hitler at its center
In 1938 the German reich annaxed Austria and the Sudetenland as well as the modern day Czech republic under the "Anschluss" (Connection)
In ww2 the german reich or how it was now know the "Großgermanisches Reich" (Greater German Reich) was the biggest german state. the war ended in 1945 and germany got partioned under the winners of ww2
The United Kingdom got the coast and the southern states of Austria, France the border states and Tyrol, the USA got Bavaria Bremen Hessen and the austrian border to germany, the Soviet Union got the eastern german states and Poland got the border states.
In 1949 the Federal Republic of germany got created (Bundesrepublik Deutschland)
The Soviet Union created a Puppet state in the Eastern German Terretories. Germany was once again disunited for half a centuary. The states name was German democratic Republic or DDR (Deutsche Demokratische Republik)
on the 3rd October 1990 the Berlin wall fell and the german people were once again one nation. A fun fact is that most Nato nations were against a reunification of germany because they feared that it would get to powerful.
Now the BRD is the 4th biggest Economic Power in the world and the Nation with the highest income in Europe

Its a federal republic with 13 states and 3 city states
