Holy Roman Empire; December 25, 800-August 1806; The Empire was
formally dissolved on 6
August
1806 when the last Holy Roman Emperor Francis II (from 1804, Emperor
Francis I of Austria)
abdicated,
following a military defeat by the French under Napoleon at
Austerlitz (see Treaty of Pressburg) The non-Holy non-Roman
non-Empire was really just a “collection of countries whose
populations consist of stinky German barbarians, who got jealous of
the mighty Roman empire and decided to call their country with a
similar name” lol “Holy Roman Empire was like the children of
alcoholics who rebeled, and got purity rings and got into Christian
Rock.” ~Colin Quinn; Khan's Academy says that the Holy Roman Empire
fell after Napoleon defeated the 3rd Coalition.

A69:
The struggle is real, and we shouldn't make it harder on others. We
should either liberate them
from
the struggle, or work to ease the burden of the struggle for others,
or we should do no harm to
others
whatsoever, for any reason.

6 (Six). At 12 years of age, we are stretching our imaginations a
bit, unless the Black forests of
Germany
were as Grimm as the Brothers tell us, to think that William
Gripshöver would be forced at
gunpoint
into the military; although it's possible. Besides him, however, from
Henry Gripshöver, at 15
years
of age all of the way up to 58 year old father Johann, all could have
be conscripted, which makes
for
a total of 6. If we subtract the women, then there's 4 conscriptable
men in the Gripshöver
household.
If we subtract the women and the old man, then there's 3: Johann the
Younger, Henry, and
William.
Still, looking at losing 3 of your healthiest grown men to the Otto
Von Bismarck machine
probably
didn't sit well with them.
Here's
the ages and names of the pioneering Gripshövers: Johann “Barney”
Gripshöver the
Elder
(58), Catherine “Kate” Gripshöver the Elder (45), Catherine Kate
Gripshöver the Younger (20),
Johann
“Barney” Gripshöver the Younger (18), Henry Gripshöver (15),
William Gripshöver (12), …
Theodore
Gripshöver (9)? That's it. Ferdinand was 7 years old, and Josef was
3.
A71:
Nobody knows why. Not specifically. We can only speculate.
A72:
5 (Five). On Q70, we learned that probably 6 could have been
conscripted in 1869, but in 1866,
William
would have been 9 years old, much too young, a mere child, to be
sending to the frontlines, but
Henry
would be 12, which we already determined was a.... maybe... okay.
Yeah. They're barbaric.
Destroyed
the Roman Empire. Then took it over. Then lost it. Then gained it
back. Lost it again. But
are
gaining it back ever so Merkelily. So that leaves 5 still able to be
conscripted in 1866. Minus the
women,
that's 3, and minus the old man, that's 2. So at the very most,
Johann the Elder (55), Catherine
the
Elder (42), Catherine the Younger (16), Johann the Younger (15), and
12 year old Henry could have
fought
in the 1866 Austro-Prussian War. Most likely, however, 15 year old
Johann the Younger fought
in
the war, and quite possibly, 12 year old Henry. Johann the Younger
may have also fought in the
Schleswig-Holstein-Denmark
War of 1864, when Prussia and Austria were once allies, in their
military
dual
occupation over the Schleswig-Holstein lands, of which Denmark had
once occupied, but he
would
have been 13 years old, so the likelihood of him participating in
that 1864 war is just a flip of a
coin.
Johann the Elder would have been 53 years old, which is an able
bodied man, but it's an old able
bodied
man, plus the old able bodied man has a wife, and 7 kids, so let's
let him continue to raise more
workers
and soldiers for the nation-state war machine.
The1866
7 Weeks War was a war with basically just Prussia on one side versus
Austria,
Bavaria,Baden,
Wuerttemburg, Saxony, Hanover, and other minor German nations on the
other side.
The
actual pretext of the war was the control over Schleswig and
Holstein, over which both
Austria
and Prussia, jointly, as allies, had scored a military victory taking
that territory from Denmark
in
1864. Prussia sent troops into Holstein, and Austria's parliament
declared war.
By
August 23, the 7 weeks war was over with the signing of Treaty of
Prague, which gave
Schleswig
and Holstein to Prussia, as well as Hanover, Mecklenburg, Grand Duchy
of Oldenburg,
Hesse-Kassel,
Nassau, Hamburg, Lubeck, Bremen, and Frankfurt outright, which
combined the
disunited
Eastern and Western portions of Prussia to a make a connected
northern German nation.
Prussia's
military victory guaranteed a larger geographic area, and therefore,
more soldiers and workerslaves.
Hell.
It could have been a family affair. They all could have been fighting
in the German wars.
Johann
would have been in his late 30s when the 1848 German Revolutions
happened.

Miami and Erie Canal used to flow underneath where Central Avenue is
built today, and the Miami and Erie Canal was dubbed “the Rhine”
because it was located next to a Little Germany that was formed in
the same place. The Rhine River is a River in Germany, so “Rhine”
was associated with the new German immigrants. The
first portion of the Miami and Erie Canal completed in 1827, and the
canal flowed between downtown and Over-the-Rhine, which reminded
German immigrants of the Rhine River. They dubbed the canal (now
Central Parkway) “the Rhine,” and from this grew the name
“Over-the-Rhine.” Music
Hall, located on Elm Street next to Washington Park. Music Hall was
originally called Saengerhalle, and was built in 1878 to give a
permanent home to musical performances and expositions. Today, Music
Hall is home to the Cincinnati Symphony and Pops Orchestras,
Cincinnati Opera, and May Festival. Little
Germany, with residents pouring in from various European German
states, starting in the 1830s and 40s. People spoke German, ate
German food, read German newspapers, and built German-style houses
and churches, although it is important to remember that there were
many different customs, habits, attitudes, dialects of the German
language, religions, and classes present. The
Miami and Erie Canal, completed in the Cincinnati area around 1827,
ran along what is now Central Parkway, separating Over-the-Rhine from
downtown. Pork-packing plants, soap and tallow factories, and various
light-industries developed along the canal.Throughout the 1830s,
first-generation German immigrants who had originally settled east of
Main Street were lured by the low cost of land and wood-frame houses
beyond the canal. The working class residents could access the
original city (downtown) only by crossing bridges, and they likened
this to crossing the Rhine River in Germany: thus the name
Over-the-Rhine. But "Over-the-Rhine" may have had a
negative connotation, too, and some sources say it originated from
the more affluent German families, who made their fortunes in OTR,
but who lived in the suburban hills of Mt. Auburn, Walnut Hills, and
Clifton.The old St. Mary's Church, with its Greek Revival and Late
Victorian architecture, was built in 1842, and is the oldest standing
church in Cincinnati. The Roman Catholic church still holds mass in
German and Latin, just as it did at its inception.The Miami
and Erie Canal was
a canal in
Ohio that ran about 274 miles (441 km)
from Toledo to Cincinnati[1] and
created a water route from Lake
Erie to
the Ohio
River.
Construction on the canal began in 1825 and was completed in 1845 at
a cost to the state government of $8,062,680.07

John Augustus Roebling; grew
up first 23 years of his life in Prussia (Muhlhausen Erfurt,
Arnsberg); 1867 when Suspension Bridge was constructed; John Augustus
Roebling was PRUSSIAN. Born in Prussia. The John
A. Roebling Suspension
Bridge spans
the Ohio
River between Cincinnati,
Ohio and Covington,
Kentucky.
When the first pedestrians crossed on December 1, 1866, it was the
longest suspension
bridge in
the world at 1,057 feet (322 m) main span.[3]Today,
many pedestrians use the bridge to get between the arenas in
Cincinnati (Paul
Brown Stadium, Great
American Ball Park,
andU.S.
Bank Arena)
and the hotels, bars, restaurants, and parking
lots in Northern
Kentucky.
The bar and restaurant district at the foot of the bridge on the
Kentucky side is known as Roebling
Point.
John Augustus
Roebling (born Johann
August Röbling,
June 12, 1806 – July 22, 1869) was a German-born American civil
engineer.
He is famous for his wire
rope suspension
bridge designs,
in particular, the design of the Brooklyn
Bridge.

Ferdinand Von Miller. Indian Mound stood where Fountain
Square is today. Dedicated in 1871. Von
Miller was born in Fürstenfeldbruck.After
a sojourn at the academy in Munich and a preliminary engagement at
the royal brass foundry, Miller traveled to Paris in
1833, where he learnt from Soyer and Blus the varied technique
necessary for bronze working. He also visited England and
the Netherlands,
and after his return to Munich worked under his teacher and uncle
Stiglmayr, whom the Crown
Prince Ludwig had
induced to devote himself to bronze foundry work and to the
establishment of the Munich foundry as a state institution. Miller
soon took his uncle's place, and upon the death of the latter was
appointed inspector of the workshop. He soon won for it a worldwide
reputation, and for himself a fortune and position of influence. 3)

Black Friday.Black Friday,
September 24, 1869 was caused by two speculators’ efforts, Jay
Gould and James
Fisk,
to corner
the gold market on
the New
York Gold Exchange.[citation
needed] It
was one of several scandals that rocked the presidency of Ulysses
S. Grant.
In
the late summer of 1869, Gould began buying large amounts of gold. He
never sold this gold. This caused prices to rise and stocks to
plummet.[citation
needed] After
Grant realized what had happened, the federal government sold $4
million in gold. On September 20, 1869, Gould and Fisk started
hoarding gold, driving the price higher. On September 24 the premium
on a gold Double
Eagle (representing
0.9675 troy ounces (30.09 g) of gold bullion at $20) was 30
percent higher than when Grant took office. But when the government
gold hit the market, the premium plummeted within minutes. Investors
scrambled to sell their holdings, and many of them, including Corbin,
were ruined. Fisk and Gould escaped significant financial harm.
1869 24 September.
Earlier in the year, Jay Gould and Jay Fisk attempted to drive up the
price of gold and corner the market. On this day, "Black
Friday," President Grant releases $4 million and drives
the price down, an action that causes a stock-market panic.
