Instead of a land ruled by a chivalric order answering to the pope, Prussia became a secular state, ruled by a protestant prince and run by a newly created class of land-owners, the famous Prussian Junkers whose impact on German history stretched well into the 20th century.\nBut the conversion of the last Grand Master and his submission to the Polish crown wasn’t the end of the order. In fact the order still exists to this day, though on a fundamentally different form, which is another fascinating history we will explore in this episode.\nEpisode webpage: Episode 137– Conversion • History of the Germans Podcast\nThe music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.\nAs always:\nHomepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.com\nFacebook: @HOTGPod \nTwitter: @germanshistory\nInstagram: history_of_the_germans\nReddit: u/historyofthegermans\nPatreon: History of the Germans Podcast | a narrative history from 919 AD to 1990 in weekly episodes | Patreon","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/sRYTbxnXcAy6rrazLV_xhCW_yD8NchNjJLkUTQ85gqU/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zNDU5/MWU3OTdmOTU5MmNk/NTY2MGZhOWJjMTdi/N2FmOC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
