>>
Because Prussia and by extension Germany has a meme-tier military that collapsed when facing actual opposition
>>
The French used their oldest trick, they approached the Prussian encampment with their trademark white flag and then slaughtered everyone when they least expected it.

unlike their enemy the Prussian army didn't change since Frederick the II's times and they were a little too afraid and/or confident in that system and organization that the veteran army of France that had been modernized due to a decade of fighting simply destroyed them. Apparently the army was also full of conservative old officers who refused to modernize.

Superior tactics.
Napoleon's armies utilized maneuverability and combined arms which triumphed over the traditional Prussian doctrine on unyielding discipline and formations.

Interesting that the Americans adopted this tactic during the revolution.

Unfortunately for Prussia, Napolean was using more advanced strategy.

No one mentioned the lack of nationalist fervor among the general population. The Germans didn't care much for their Prussian masters losing the war.

Its after Napoleon do you see the Prussian state (not just the army) enact reforms and started promoting nationalism among the citizenry.

because krauts never fucking war any major war in general
>>
>>3257897
because they were inferior to Incas

Man, if my army is killed in it´s own encampment by the supposedly surrendering enemy the bunch of retards who composed my army serve me better dead than alive.
