History 

Review

There was a country in Europe called Prussia. The third king was Fredrick, Fredrick the great. Fredrick's father was the second king and he hated Fredrick because he loved poetry and music and so Fredrick couldn't take the pain that his father gave him and he ran away and he was caught and his father wanted for his punishment to be killed but it didn't happen. When Fredrick became king he wanted some land called Austria and he won in a war part of it and then the seven year war happened between Austria and Prussia. Prussia won. At the same time the English won against the French over America, and if it weren't for Fredrick winning  we Americans would be speaking French instead of English and we would be French and we wouldn't be "The Land of the Free" and "The Home of the Brave" thank you Fredrick. Now near Fredrick's Palace there was a mill a very ugly mill and so Fredrick offered the miller a lot of money for the mill so he could tear it down but the miller refused, and unlike most kings Fredrick let him be, and that very same mill still stands there today.
