The two realms were in personal union until 1755; thereafter, Brandenburg functioned as an electorate of the Holy Roman Empire until its abolition in 1814. Line 14: == Legacy == The fall of Prussia is featured heavily in early proto-[[National republicanism\|national-republican]] rhetoric, with the Prussian nobility being ~~villainized~~ antagonized. Prussian intellectuals in Paris, such as [[Henri-Georges von Auerswald]], often repeated the idea that the fragile monarch must give up their divine right to rule and fully merge with the people's interests in order to form a republic free from corrupting influences. This was later used by 20th century national republican leaders in Russia and elsewhere to ~~further~~provide ~~justify~~a ~~the~~recent ~~abolition~~historical ofbasis ~~monarchy~~for their ideology. == List of monarchs == Line 34: \| \|- \|Charles I ~~\|[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles,_Electoral_Prince_of_Brandenburg Charles I]~~ \|1684 \|1704 Line 60: \| \|- \|Charles II ~~\|Frederick William III~~ \|1769 \|1781 Line 70: \| \|- \|Frederick William IVIII \|1802 \|1811
