The process of German unification was continued by Prussia after the defeat of the liberal, middle-class Germans at the hands of the aristocrats and the military in 1848. Its chief minister Otto von Bismarck carried out this process with the help of the Prussian army and bureaucracy. Over seven years, Prussia fought three wars with Austria, Denmark and France. These wars culminated in Prussian victory and German unification. William I, the Prussian king, was proclaimed German Emperor in January 1871, at Versailles.

The process of German unification began with economic integration through the Zollverein in the 1830s. The Revolutions of 1848 sparked nationalist sentiments, leading to the Frankfurt Parliament’s attempt at unification but failing due to opposition. Otto von Bismarck’s wars against Denmark, Austria, and France (1864-1871) ultimately led to the proclamation of the German Empire in 1871, uniting German states under Prussian leadership.
