Content: Otto von Bismarck
Revolution of 1848
In 1848, working people in Germany tried to get more power by revolution, just as they had earlier that year in France and in Austria-Hungary. They wanted freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, a written constitution, and an elected parliament. So they wanted the vote. Karl Marx was involved. Who was Karl Marx? Revolution in France
Emigration to Brazil
But the revolution failed. Many of its leaders and supporters left Germany for the United States or for Brazil. Who was Otto von Bismarck? Then in the 1860s the prime minister of Prussia, Bismarck, succeeded in combining Prussia and Germany into a big German Empire. His German Empire covered the whole middle of Europe.
