Описание: In this episode of pplpod, we dive into the complex life of Frederick II, the monarch who transformed Prussia from a fragmented state into a major European military power. We explore his traumatic upbringing under his tyrannical father, Frederick William I, and the tragic "Katte affair" that forced him to watch the execution of his close friend and possible lover. Discover how this self-described "first servant of the state" balanced his aggressive military campaigns in the Silesian Wars with a devotion to the Enlightenment, composing over 100 sonatas for the flute and constructing his beloved sanctuary, Sanssouci. We also discuss his domestic legacy, from legal reforms and religious tolerance to his famous promotion of the potato to feed his people. Finally, we examine the private life of "Old Fritz," his sexuality, and his enduring reputation as a military genius who defied the odds.
