written constitution = after unificationDuring revolutions in 1848-1849, the Frankfurt Parliament had produced a constitution for a unified Germany, but that move was rejected at the time by the king of Prussia, to whom the constitution was offered.
300 German states = before unificationThe German states had a long history of sovereignty in their individual territories. Unification meant bringing all those states together into one national entity.
trade facilitated in the region = before unificationThe Zollverein, or customs union, was created between the German states in the 1830s. This eliminated customs tariffs between states and was a step that began moving in the direction of unification.
risk of French aggression = before unificationGermany became a united empire after the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. Victory over France in that war by the German states operating as a coalition was part of what brought about unification.
boundaries changed by Napoleon = before unificationWhen Napoleon conquered territories throughout Europe in the early 1800s, he rearranged borders to enhance his empire's management of conquered territories. In the German states, this made them work together in ways they had not before, and was a catalyst toward desires for unification.
two-house legislature = after unificationThere was a legislature in the North German Confederation (1867-1870), which preceded unification. But that was a single-house (unicameral) parliament, whereas the Reichstag (legislature) of the unified German Empire was bicameral.
3. Could be elected the chairman, 4. Nominated county officers and 5. Chose delegates to the state convention... because I read that the county chairman came into existence first and it nominated most county officers, elected the county chairman, and later chose delegtes to the state convention.
The best option from the list in terms of a characteristic of life in the early industrial cities would be "overcrowding," since many people crammed into small areas in order to be close to the factories in which they worked.
