German Question

The German Question refers to the historical debate over whether Germany should be unified into a single nation or divided into smaller states. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, various political movements and leaders disagreed: some wanted a unified, strong Germany, while others favored maintaining separate kingdoms or regions. This debate influenced key events like the unification in 1871 under Prussia, shaping Germany’s political landscape. Today, it’s a significant concept in understanding German history, nationalism, and how different regions and identities interacted in shaping modern Germany.
