The King of Prussia, Charles Frederick II (1712–1786), known in history as Frederick the Great, was the King of Prussia from 1740 until the end of his days. The people affectionately nicknamed this outstanding representative of the House of Hohenzollern...
Old Fritz. This nickname reflects both the Germans' affection for their king and recognition of his state wisdom. One of Frederick the Great's most brilliant works is the political treatise "Anti-Machiavelli," written in 1739–1740, when the king was only 28 years old. In it, he polemizes with Niccolò Machiavelli and his famous book "The Prince." The treatise became one of the most read works in enlightened Europe, where it was said that the main goal of a monarch is to maintain the well-being and prosperity of his subjects. It has not lost its relevance to this day; rather, it has become extremely sought after as the only correct way to govern a state. The publication also includes Frederick the Great's work "Instruction on Military Art for His Generals"—a treatise dedicated to the tactics and strategies of warfare.
