It was once said that 'Where some states have an army, the Prussian Army has a state'. Did Prussia's 18th-century militarism have any origin in its history as the Teutonic state, a polity that was, very literally, an army with a state?

曾有人说,"在一些国家有军队的地方,普鲁士军队有国家"。普鲁士18世纪的军国主义是否起源于其作为日耳曼国家的历史,这个政体,从字面上看,是一个拥有国家的军队?
