Information from Wikipedia. If this is a response to my comment, my answer is that I didn't need to consult Wikipedia as I specialized in European history in my undergraduate degree in Modern History, Politics and Economics way back in the 1960s - just before I became a full time academic. See Mark Berry's interesting article on the importance of "in" versus "of": www.academia.edu/1251694/The_King_in_Prussia
