Prussia defeated Austria and its allies much quicker, and they were certainly no pushovers. But yes, France being defeated so handily was a quite a surprise, though no one was willing to come to France's aid. Bismarck is to thank for that, as well as all the trouble that Prussia got up to during this period. Seriously, I still cannot fathom how he was able to get Prussia into a position where it fought most of its neighbors and annexed enormous amounts of land leading to the creation of Germany and not get dogpiled in the process.
It's kind of hard to stop a voluntary union of countries, no?
