Silesian Wars[edit]

The Silesian Wars (German: Schlesische Kriege) were a series of three wars fought in the mid-18th century between Prussia (under King Frederick the Great) and Austria (under Archduchess Maria Theresa) for control of the Central European region of Silesia. All three wars are generally considered to have ended in Prussian victory, and their territorial result was Austria's cession of the majority of Silesia to Prussia. The conflict over Silesia foreshadowed a wider Austro-Prussian struggle for hegemony over the German-speaking peoples that would later culminate in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866.

  • Support I've reviewed all of these articles, and believe the three articles cover the wars comprehensively, and the Silesian Wars article is a good summary. I cannot think of any articles that need to be added. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 05:21, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
