jan 1, 1848 - Revolution in Prussia
Description:
The Greater Poland Uprising of 1848, also known as the Poznań (German: Posen) Uprising, was an unsuccessful military insurrection of Polish troops under Ludwik Mierosławski against the Prussian forces. It began on 20 March 1848 and resulted in Prussia annexing the Greater Polish region as the Province of Posen. The Frankfurt Assembly tried to establish a new "German" state in 1849 and offered the crown to Wilhelm. He refused. It was a result of the liberal revolution that swept the German states early in 1848.
