List of Wars (1860-1899)[edit]
Austro-Prussian War[edit]
Aftermath and consequences[edit]
For the defeated parties[edit]
In addition to war reparations, the following territorial changes took place:
- Austria: Surrendered the province of Venetia and some Dalmatian islands to Italy. Austria then lost all official influence over member states of the former German Confederation. Austria’s defeat was a telling blow to Habsburg rule; the Empire was briefly transformed via the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867 into the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary in the following year, though this would rapidly disintegrate.
- Schleswig and Holstein: Became the Prussian Province of Schleswig-Holstein.
- Saxony: Annexed by Prussia, became the Province of Saxony.
- Hesse-Darmstadt: Surrendered to Prussia the small territory it had acquired earlier in 1866 on the extinction of the ruling house of Hesse-Homburg. The northern half of the remaining land joined the North German Confederation.
- Nassau, Hesse-Kassel, Frankfurt: Annexed by Prussia. Combined with the territory surrendered by Hesse-Darmstadt to form the new Province of Hesse-Nassau.
- Hanover, Saxe-Meiningen, Reuss-Greiz, Schaumburg-Lippe: Spared from annexation but joined the North German Confederation in the following year.
