Content: These were further catalysed by the Viennese Revolution. Baden, one of the most liberal states in Germany, saw several unorganised instances of peasants burning the mansions of local aristocrats. On 27 February 1848, an assembly of people from Baden adopted a resolution demanding a bill of rights in Mannheim. Würtemberg, Hesse-Darmstadt, Nassau, and other German states followed suit and adopted similar resolutions. Since these movements had surprisingly strong popular support, rulers were forced to accept many of the Märzforderungen (demands of March) almost without resistance. Friedrich Engels participated in the uprising in the region and was later joined by Karl Marx. The two became editors of the Neue Rheinische Zeitung. In March in Prussia, crowds of people gathered in Berlin with most of the fighting done by the working class and the students. Berlin was noted as having bloody streets because of the fighting- barricades made of cobblestones turned the streets into fortresses. The demonstrators presented their demands to the king.
