German Unification (1 janv. 1861 – 18 janv. 1871)

Description:

Wanting to expand the power of Prussia it's king, William I, appointed Otto Von Bismarck as Prime Minister. He tried to get the military funds increased through taxes, was rejected, but did so anyway (blaming liberals). Bismarck fought three different wars, always making sure that Prussia only fought one power and that they were isolated. The Danish, Austro-Prussian, and Franco-Prussian Wars.
