"The causes of the Franco-Prussian War were, on the one hand the determination of Prussia to unite all of Germany under her leadership, and on the other hand the determination of France to prevent this union."
War was officially declared by the French on July 19, 1870.
Austria, Denmark and England remined neutral. France was alone. The Prussian military were quick to show their superiority over the French, and surrounded and laid seige to Paris. The treaty that ended the war, the treaty of Frankfort, was signed on May 10, 1871.
The terms were:
1. The payment of an idemnity of 200,000,000 (pounds).
2. The right of Germany to be treated by France as the most favoured nation.
3. The annexation of Alsace and Eastern Lorriane.
