"Full On", "Five Armies", and "Devastation and Revenge" by Kevin MacLeod
Note:
- Some German states are too small to label.
- Due to the Prussian/German focus of the video, some events are omitted or skipped over such as the Italian front or the Paris commune. You can see more details of those in my other videos.
- Technically Liechtenstein never made peace with Prussia, but I decided to show them leaving the conflict once the treaty with Austria is signed.
