Prussian Navy
The
Prussian Navy
(
German
:
Preußische Marine
), was the naval force of the
Kingdom of Prussia
. It was created from the former
Brandenburg Navy
, following the elevation of the
Duke of Prussia
to
King in Prussia
in 1701. At that time, Brandenburg and Prussia formed a double state ruled in personal union by the
House of Hohenzollern
. The Prussian Navy existed, without any long interruption, until the founding of the
North German Confederation
in 1867, at which point the Prussian Navy was absorbed into the
Norddeutsche Bundesmarine
(
North German Federal Navy
).
