It was much more of a banality. It was their uniforms. Black, golden buttons, red collar and butresses.
Yes, I know (as I say above) - I meant why did those uniform colors become the flag of the unified German republics, and might that have been helped by the fact that it was more than just a Prussian effort.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
