A History of PrussiaRoutledge, 13 thg 10, 2014 - 336 trang In little more than two centuries Prussia rose from medieval obscurity and the devastation of the Thirty Years War to become the dominant power of continental Europe.

It traces the origins and rise of the Prussian state from the thirteenth century to the causes and consequences of its incorporation into the German Empire. |
