The Rise of Nationalism in Europe
Write notes on:
Frankfurt Parliament
In the German regions a large number of political associations whose members were middle-class professionals, businessmen and prosperous artisans came together in the city of Frankfurt and decided to vote for an all-German National Assembly. On 18 May 1848, 831 elected representatives marched in a festive procession to take their places in the Frankfurt parliament convened in the church of St Paul. They drafted a constitution for a German nation to be headed by a monarchy subject to a parliament. While the opposition of the aristrocracy and military became stronger, the social basis of parliament eroded. In the end troops were called in and the assembly was forced to disband.
