We all love the Germans. They used to start wars every Thursday. Now they make cars and innovative electronic music about motorways. But before germany became one giant world war making country. It was made up of many different kingdoms/electorates/free states. Which are your favorites. Few rules 1 holy roman empire doesn't count 2 neither does Austria propper. 3. No ancient germania either. We are taking late medieval and newer. The obvious one is prussia! But I'll say Saxony |

Hesse, because of the neat flags and hats they gave us at Trenton. |

Not aware of two many of them, so will have to go with Bavaria. |

Bavaria and Brunswick. My German heritage comes from Bavaria, and the Black Brunswickers are just so darn cool! |

Bavaria for all the good beer and Mad King Ludwig. |

I will go with Bayern. And not just because I love cornflower blue. |

Bavaria, good brew & a guy that couldn't stop adding rooms to his castle! What's not to like! |

Hanover. There were other choices?? |

As a Prussian aficionado I have always liked to see Pomerania though its now part of Poland, Been to Munich and the former American areas. |
Major Mike | 31 Aug 2016 4:17 p.m. PST |
Franconia, which is in Bavaria, as it gave rise to the Great Robber Baron Eppelein von Gailingen. |
Buckeye AKA Darryl | 31 Aug 2016 4:21 p.m. PST |
Oh yes, I forgot Hanover! KGL, 1866, and all that. |

My grandfather was born in Württemberg and I still have relatives there, so I guess I will have to go with Württemberg. |

Pfalz, because I was born there. My family's time in Germany was pretty brief after my birth: my parents brought me home to the U.S. when I was three months old. |

Saxony for no particular reason. Just sounds cool and when we used to play Empires in Arms, I always tried to get them as a free state when playing Austria or Prussia. |

Bavaria. Everyones favourite minor ally. |

Bavaria – if you can't have a good time in Bavaria, you must be dead. If we can stretch things, how about the Tyrol? |
