On February 26, 1871, the Pfa War ended with the defeat of France.

The Prussian War was a war that broke out by Prussia to unite Germany and fight with France for hegemony on the European continent. But the war was initiated by France and ended with the victory of Prussia and the establishment of the German Empire.

Causes of War

In order to unify Germany, Prussia defeated Denmark and Austria in 1864 and 1866, but France still manipulated the southern German states behind the scenes, hindering Germany's reunification. For this, under the initiative of Prussian Prime Minister Bismarck, a dispute over the succession of the Spanish throne was created, and Francis Napoleon III declared war on Russia, with Prussia using this to unite the German nation and attack France.

The war passed.

After the Pope's declaration of war, France immediately formed the Rhin Army, gathered at the Fader border. The Army consisted of eight armies, about 220,000, of Napoleon III as Commander-in-Chief, Le Bouvier as Chief of Staff. France wanted to first stop, seize Frankfurt, and force Prussia to submit; but at the same time, Prussia also gathered three legions, about 47,000, of William I as Commander-in-Chief, and Maurice as Chief of Staff. Prussia planned with superior forces, to concentrate on attacking Alsacia and Lorraine, to break the French army at the border online, and then to attack Paris, forcing France to surrender.

The war began with the French assault on the Prussian army on 2 August 1870 in the area of Salbruck. But by 4 August, the Prussian army had successfully defeated the French army and entered the counter-attack phase. At the same time, the French were defeated in the rest of the battlefields, forced back to the country and transferred to defence. By mid-August, the French army had been divided into two, with a Rhin army of 170,000 of Marshal Bachan surrounded by the Prussian army in the fortress of Matz, and more than 120,000 led by Marshal Napoleon III and Marshal McMahon were forced to retreat after the intense war with the Prussian army on 30 August.

On the 1st to 2nd of September, the PFA armies fought a decisive battle against the French, namely a battle in the colours. On the morning of 1st of September, the PFA armies captured Wurtz, Bucharest, etc., and successfully cut off the way of the French withdrawal from the west, and blocked the French armies from behind. And at noon of the same day, the PFA armies also completed the siege against the French armies, and with powerful artillery? *****??. In the afternoon, after several attempts at the defeat of the French army, Napoleon III was forced at 4:00 p.m. to send people to William I, expressing his wish to ¡°give his sword into the hands of His Majesty.¡± On 2nd of September, Napoleon III officially led

Impact of War

The PFA War ended with the collapse of the Second French Empire and the surrender of the French bourgeois government. The PFA ceasefire and the Treaty of Frankfurt were extremely tough: it stipulated that France ceded Alsacia and Lorraine to Germany and paid off five billion francs. This also led to the outbreak of the proletarian revolution in Paris on 18 March in France. But on 18 January 1871, Pope William I in the mirror hall of the Palace of Versailles declared the establishment of the German Empire, and he himself became the first emperor. Germany declared reunification. But Germany and France complained in this war and sank for the subsequent outbreak of the First World War.
