=== Politics === Without a westward shift in the boundary, the new empire's frontier with France would have been largely divided between the states of [[Baden]] and [[Kingdom of Bavaria|Bavaria]] whose governments were less than enthusiastic with the prospect of having a vengeful France on their doorstep. It also would have necessitated the stationing of substantial imperial forces within these states' borders, possibly compromising their ability to exercise the considerable autonomy that the southern states were able to maintain in the [[Constitution of the German Empire|unification treaty]]. A shift in the frontier alleviated these issues.
