Bab 627: Chapter Four Hundred and Seventy-Eight: 1919

With the help of the United Kingdom and Australasia, William II managed to retain his throne as the King of Prussia, and was even eligible to run for the position of Emperor of Germany.

However, in order to retain his throne, William II had to make many sacrifices.

Firstly, the power of the German states greatly increased. Upon France's strong request, the newly formed German Empire would operate under a federal system where each of the states had significant power, including complete economic and military rights.

Apart from administrative and diplomatic decisions being determined by the imperial government, these smaller states were essentially independent nations with their own governments, parliaments, and militaries.

In the more powerful South German region was the Kingdom of Bavaria, led by Ludwig III, who also had the right to run for the position of Emperor of Germany.
