GERMANY - KINGDOM OF PRUSSIA - FREDERICK II THE GREAT
(1740-17/08/1786)
Frederick was born in Berlin on January 24, 1712 and was the son of Frederick William I. He was initially an ally of France in the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-1748) and then there was an alliance reversal during the Seven Years' War (1756-1763). He was one of the great victors of the Treaty of Paris (1763) and took part in the first partition of Poland (1772). Frederick II (1712-1786) was the greatest king of Prussia. A friend of Voltaire, he wrote in French and was the model of the Enlightened Despot of the second half of the eighteenth century. He succeeded his father Frederick William, the Soldier King, and made Berlin a true capital and Sanssouci Palace at Potsdam a small Versailles. Thanks to a bellicose policy, he made Prussia the most powerful state in Eastern Europe and counterbalanced the influence of Austria and Russia. He died at Sans-Souci Palace (Potsdam) on August 17, 1786.
