The German Confederation was an association of 39 German states in Central Europe, created by the Congress of Vienna in 1815. Th
e Congress of Vienna coordinated the economies of separate German-speaking countries and replaced the former Holy Roman Empire. According to the map, how would the establishment of the German Confederation impact existing empires and states?
The creation of the German Confederation in 1815 through the union of the different German states in a single political unit made the nations that until then were seen in a clear political and strategic disadvantage against the European powers such as France, Britain or Russia obtained a much greater power, similar to that of these nations.
Thus, the German Confederation not only equated the power of the German states, putting them on the table of the European powers, but also operated as a limit to the political and expansionist ambitions of nations like France or Russia.
