Being ‘German’
There were 39 independent German states, each ruled by their own Prince, each with their own
goals and concerns. However, they had all begun to see that had many things in common.
1. All of these 39 states spoke the same language and shared similar customs.
2. They had a common culture and shared the same taste in literature and music. These things made you ‘German’
3. The idea was starting to become popular that being ‘German’ made you better than others who were not German
The Challenge…Can you create a unified German Nation?
1. Read through your profile and organize your state’s position
2. Get with your group and discuss what a unified Germany will look like What are the pros and cons of unification? Who will lead? What will the language, religion, and balance of power
look like? How will you handle other nations that don’t like the idea
of a united Germany?

What really happened in Germany
Bell Work: please copy the info below into your notes.Mastermind of Unification: Otto Von Bismarck
Bismarck’s Goals1. unify the German states under Prussia
2. Weaken Austria so it is no longer an obstacle to unification – and keep them out of the nation once it forms
3. Strengthen the position of the King of Prussia, William I, to counter the demands for reform from the Liberals in the Prussian parliament (the Reichstag). Remember Liberals want reforms – more freedoms and
influence for the middle class – new constitution?
What Bismarck Did..Realpolitik = policies are based on the needs of the state not principles
Steps to Unification: Get rid of Prussia’s competition outside of its boarders1. Built up Prussian Army
2. 1864 - Allies Prussia with Austria to fight Denmark Wins and splits territory with Austria – unfairly Quietly creates alliances with Italy, France, and Russia
3. 1866 – 7 Weeks War Austria protests territory split - B. declares war with Austria and
invades N. German states B Wins - Austria promises to stay out of German affairs – N.
Germany is unified
4. 1870 – “French Menace” and the King’s Refusal Spain offers throne to a relative of William I – France asks him to
refuse the offer – B ‘edits’ William’s response Napoleon III declares war on Prussia Southern German states unite with Prussia to fight France – win
1871 Germany is UnitedThe separate German princes accept William I of
Prussia as Kaiser
Austria is not included
Second Reich – Second Empire (Rome)
The independent statesUnified Germany
Affects of Unification on Germany
1. A new Constitution1. Parliament with 2 houses with
elected officials
2. Universal male suffrage
2. Growing the economy Industrialism Single currency, better
banking systems
3. Getting rid of competition for loyalty - The Catholic Church and Socialism Passed laws that put gov. in
control of the Catholic Church Outlawed Socialism
Both actions backfire Bismarck changes course Social welfare programs to
woo workers
The end of Bismarck’s career 1888 – Kaiser William II
Continues social welfare programs and growing the German navy and military
Teaches obedience to the state and plans to expand the German empire
“There is only one master in the Reich”
