TABLOID HISTORY OF GERMANY

The only result OF this achieve

smaller principalities gained great
or power. and ultimately all Ger.

Der OF tiny realms. each claiming
practical independence. supporting
its own army. levying les own taxes.
making its own alliances, while the
emperors were engaged in wars
abroad.
by the time Frederick the Sec

from the great castles whose ruins

and private warfare were the order
OF the day. There was no law or
justice in the land.
Al last. in ls73. the mobiles decid-
ed that an emperor must be found
TO bring some order out OF this
chaos. and Rudolph. count OF Haps-
burg. was brought from his home
In Switzerland and put upon the
throne The first act OF this hrst
imperial Hapsburg was to attack
and defeat the king OF Bohemia
and gain possession Of the Austrian
territories. which the Hapsourgs
have held on TO ever since.
But clear down TO 1905 the Hsps-
burgs also held on 10 the German
throne. with only few interrupt
tons.
Yet. by the situation OF their ter
ritories. the Hapsburg rulers were
facing always toward the south and
east. toward the Turks. slsvs and
Balkans. There they saw both their
greatest opportunities and their
greatest perils. The peace. order.
and development OF the land OF Ger.
many was neglected. In order that
the Roman dream OF world empire
might be attained.
In the long centuries following
the advent OF the Hapsburgs to the
German empire there was almost
constant warfare in the German
realm, among the mobiles. between
the German emperors and thea r.
Voting subjects abroad. and fnany
between the Protestant and Catho-
lie parties.
All this strife and bloodshed cuI-
minated only in that even bloodier
period OF the. Thirty Years War.
This confused struggle began In
1913 and ended IN is4s. only after
France Denmark and Sweden had
all been drawn In mixing con.
