Chapter 45, A Marriage Alliance?

Without a doubt, the insecure Prussian Government was even more eager to collaborate with Prussia-Austria, and soon both parties agreed on a united front against foreign intervention.

On November 11, 1850, Prussia and Austria signed the "German Treaty" in Vienna, which stipulated: the two countries would join forces to counter foreign powers' interference in the affairs of the Germany Region…

Interestingly, this treaty did not include the Schleswig-Holstein Duchies occupied by the Danish people.

Clearly, after a failed attempt, the Prussian Government struggled with a severe lack of confidence and, while opposing the British, dared not further antagonize the Russians.

Since the Prussian Government made no demands, Austria naturally would not bother. Whether or not the two duchies could return to the embrace of Germany, Austria would not have a share in it.
