      abstract = {The Franco-Prussian War of 1980-71 was the first "modern"  war in Europe. It was the largest military conflict fought  on European soil since the end of the Napoleonic Wars. The  end of the war marked the ascendancy of imperial Germany as  the preeminent military power on the continent and laid the  foundation for the eventual Anglo-French rapprochement that  would signal the end of two centuries of bitter rivalry.  The war would be the first of the three Franco-German wars  that would rend Europe asunder for the next 75 years and  would play a pivotal role in shaping the history of the  20th century. The war took place at the dawn of a new era  of "industrial warfare" marked by huge advances in the  destructive power of infantry and artillery weapons. It was  a forerunner of the devastation that modern weaponry would  unleash in the First World War. This program features  dramatized reenactment, expert analysis, and in-depth  commentary into the causes and consequences of the  Franco-Prussian War.},
