As a great fan of Frederick II. I think it was wrong that the old Prussia was so badly judged and mauled at the end of WWII. It seems forgotten that the last democratic elected government in Prussia was a Social Democratic one before the Nazis take power and fired many democratic oriented civil officers and officials and employees to install an unethic and cruel administration.
I hope for a reinstitution of a federal state "Prussia" here in our Federal Republic of Germany because too many federal states have problems like the states of Berlin and Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony. All together areas which belonged to Prussia for a long time.
Prussia was here in Germany the first country which gives full citizenship to Jews and gives Religious Freedom to all inhabitants since the days of Frederick II.
Sadly it gains some reputation for militarism and in the 20.century for Totalitarism...
Sorry for offtopic so far...
