Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book studies the political landscape of Europe from 1740-1786, specifically the consequences of Austria's decline and Prussia's rise as major powers. The author explores the major conflicts of the period, including The Seven Year's War and the American Revolution, contextualizing them within the significant social and cultural changes of the time. The text highlights the dramatic shift in European politics as a result of Prussia's rise, which upset the old order and forced other nations to adapt to this new power dynamic.
