Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Evolution of Prussia the Making of an Empire
The whole Empire wrote Treitschke (politi/e, n. 'is based historically and politically on the fact that it is (as Emperor William once said to Bismarck) an extended Prussia that Prussia is the dominant factor, both in fact and in formula. What is our German Imperial army Unquestionably it is the Prussian army, which, by the Army Bill of 1814, was developed into a nation in arms, extending over the whole Empire. The German Imperial Post, the telegraph system, the Imperial Bank are old Prussian institutions, extended to the Empire. The conditions are such that the will of the Empire can in the last instance be nothing else than the will of the Prussian state.'
