One of the realms of Prussia (Brandenburg-Prussia). Prussia became a duchy in 1525, when Albert of Hohenzollern, Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights, turned Lutheran and secularised their lands. In 1618 it passed to his relatives, the electors of Brandenburg, and Frederick William the Great Elector forged their scattered territories into a disciplined state with a standing army.
