Geschichte wiederholt sich nicht, aber sie ist voller Parallelen, Analogien und ähnlichkeiten sowie Lehren und Vorbildern. Schauen wir uns die gegenwärtige Lage Deutschlands an. Wie die Feierlichkeiten und die Rede der deutschen Regierungschefin Angela Merkel am 1. September 2009 zeigten, ist sie noch immer durch den Zweiten Weltkrieg geprägt. It is now over six decades, Germany suffered one of its worst defeats and was occupied. Conquerors were the Americans and their allied for. Today American soldiers are still in Germany.

Germany is now allied with the United States. The U.S. has, that power after the Second World War, it increased a unipolar order to strive for the world. The enforcement of this order repels among others in the Islamic world to resist. Today drove the U.S. war in the Islamic world. Germany has traditionally been relaxed to good relations with the Islamic world.

Germany's political leadership holds However, the view that the reasons of state "full solidarity" areas, and provides military service. The war in the Islamic world proceeds not as the U.S. had imagined what they respond to the desire for more German soldiers.

And how was the situation 197 years ago, in September 1812 in Prussia? good five years earlier had suffered in the Fourth Coalition Prussian War (1806/07), one of his worst defeats. conquerors were the French and their allies. In September 1812 French Soladten were still in Prussia. Meanwhile, Prussia was allied with France forced. France had increased its power under the Fourth Coalition War yet, now sought a unipolar order in Europe. The enforcement of this order came in, inter alia, Russia opposition. France led 1812 war against Russia, and Prussia had to do an auxiliary corps under the command of General Yorck von Wartenberg place.

Prussia had relaxed since the death of Empress Elizabeth to good relations with Russia. The war in Russia was not what France had imagined what it reacted with the desire for more Prussian soldiers.
But then signed Ludwig Yorck von Wartenberg end of 1812, the Convention Tauroggen. This Neutralization of the Prussian contingent commanded by him in Napoleon's Grande Armee finished the Prussian General Prussian soldiers dying for french interests in Russia. Where is the Yorck the present, which closes the death of German soldiers for U.S. interests in the Islamic world?

was 500 years ago, its will Albrecht of Brandenburg-Ansbach Grand Master of the Teutonic Order

Albrecht of Brandenburg-Ansbach in 1522
On 13 February 1511 Albrecht of Brandenburg-Ansbach was elected to the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order. 14 years later, the Hohenzollern Totengräber to the German Teutonic Order, calling him transformed into a secular, hereditary Duchy of Poland's favor.

the German Order State in Prussia was followed the principle of efficiency. Instead of protection, and relationships should perform better and a willingness to decide about the occupation of Staatsämtern. Is how the German order for even over generations, the member of election at the head, which had until then kept in the best service to the Order.

On the advice of the Grand Master John of depths they came from this principle however. The religious state was no longer able alone to resist the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and therefore chooses now Fürstensöhne usually too high, in the hope that they were then let her relationship to you for the good play of the religious state.

on the depth of death in 1497 was Frederick of Saxony Wettin lected after the first of this new criterion Grand Master. He was succeeded after his death 1510, the Hohenzollern Albert of Brandenburg-Ansbach. Väterlicherseits was Al-Albrechts grandfather of Elector of Brandenburg and Margrave of Ansbach and Kulmbach Albrecht Achilles and mütterlicherseits the Polish king Kasimir II With the election so Albrecht joined the hope of finding allied for the Reich and to appease Poland.

After Albrecht was elected in death year of its operation from the field to those who trespass against künftigen Masters, he was on 13 February 1511 in the German Order Zschillen provost at Chemnitz included in the Order of the Ordensbevollmächtigten be final chosen as the Grand Master and invested with it has been.

barely in office, he found himself with the claim of his uncle, King Sigismund I of Poland face, swore allegiance to him. The Polish king looked at as a result of the Second Peace of Thorn of 1466 as lord of the Order of the area and therefore held to that claim allegiance to have. This act of subjugation-tion and recognition of the sovereignty of Poland, however, tried to avoid the new Grand Master as his predecessor by all means.

This struggle cost the already tense relations between the German Teutonic Order and the Polish-Lithuanian Union and tastes, finally in 1519 in a war. In this so-called Reiter war was a war-decisive clash of the Streitmächte. Instead, the concentrated kriegführenden parties to working with their riders in the territory of each other to rob and pillage.

In 1521, brokered the Roman-German Emperor Charles V and King Ludwig II of Bohemia and Hungary from the Polish Jagiellonian dynasty of Thorn in a scheduled four-year ceasefire. In this period, an arbitration brought under the leadership of the two monarchs, the issue of war opponents to the decision, a pious wish.

Albrecht took the time to advertise in the kingdom allied for. To this end, he went to the imperial government in Nurnberg. During the Diet of 1522/23 he visited here and sermons Andreas Osiander and came up with the reformer in personal contact. The supporters of Martin Luther succeeded to win the Grand Master for the Lutheran doctrine. The German Order State had been the Tannenberg battle of 1410 visibly on the wane and the Catholic Church in crisis, and as Albrecht, a reminder of Rome reached to reform his order, the Grand Master Luther sought even in Wittenberg, and asked him for advice Luther then advised the Grand Master of the Order into a secular state Principality convert.

Albrecht followed the advice before the truce expired in 1525 with Poland, suggested to the Grand Master of the Polish king a package solution: Sigismund's recognition of the transformation of the religious state into a hereditary duchy with Duke Albrecht as against Albrecht Recognition of the feudal rule of Sigismund. The Polish side agreed. On 8 April 1525 joined the war parties to Krakow peace and sealed the end of the German Order State. Albrecht paid homage to his uncle and was awarded the Herzogswürde in Prussia.

The German Order and the Emperor recognized the conversion of not, but Albrecht assured apart from the agreement with the Polish neighbors übermächtigen the action by the federal results with other Protestant rulers sent off. In addition, the Reformation had found during his stay in the kingdom and the German religious country many friends and followers. To Pentecost as Duke Albrecht went back to the area he had left as Grand Master. In the capital city of Koenigsberg, he took the country gathered for days in the presence of Polish Ambassador against the Homage. Those few knights who join the exchange did not understand or were expelled from the country. Thus, from the German Order State, the Duchy of Prussia.
