The German Empire: a History of a Nation in Search of Itself, 1848-1918
About This Novel
Germany produced Goethe, Bach, Kant, Marx, and Hitler. It played an extremely important role in the balance of power in Europe, but it could never find a satisfactory identity or even a stable boundary. How factors such as the unification process, industrialization, colonial movements and military expansion combined to promote the rise of the empire; how Germany became an important force that completely broke the balance of power in Europe and remained at the center of the European historical stage forever. In the course of history, except for the period from the Franco-Prussian War to the Treaty of Versailles, no other period could shape and change Germany so completely. It is impossible to deeply understand the roots of the First and Second World Wars without ignoring the brilliant performance of the German Empire during this period of history.
