I'm reading about the history of Prussia at the moment; I'm up to the final part of the 18th Century at the moment. The book has six maps of Prussia through the ages at the beginning, it really opens your eyes to the changes that have happened.

And Prussia was abolished in World War II - the Allies wrote it into the surrender.
