liberals, he believed in natural rights, progress, and constitutional monarchy. But he also believed in the
practical politics of reality, which came to be called realpolitik. Thus, he did not hesitate to advance the

two wars, the first with Prussia against Denmark (1864) and the second between Austria and Prussia (Seven Weeks'
War of 1866). After winning both wars, Bismarck manipulated France into declaring war against Prussia. His armies
