Prussia

From Turtledove

Prussia was a powerful north German state around which the other German states unified after the Franco-Prussian War in 1870-71. It was ruled by the Hohenzollern Dynasty, whose kings became known as "the German Emperors" after the unification of Germany.

Note: The above applies to most Harry Turtledove timelines with a point of departure after 1870, as well as Southern Victory. In most of those, Prussia ceased to exist after World War II.

[edit] Prussia in The Two Georges

Prussia was one of the more prominent of the Germanic States. Given its close proximity to the Russian Empire, its citizens were on the dour side (or so Colonel Thomas Bushell thought) and intrigued eastward as well as squabbling with their Germanic neighbours.
