In previous discussion concerning the Great War, I remember one ahistorical scholar who remarked that the absence of a German navy (due to funds being adjusted to enlarge the various German armies) would lead to a decline in nationalism.

This was very interesting to me.

Now, I do not know so much about the political system of Willhelmian Germany, but I was wondering, "What if Germany had created a single unified military prior to the Great War?"

My First Question: Would Bavaria, Saxony and Wurttemberg be willing to integrate their independent armies into a single German army?

My Second Question: Would this Germany army fair better in the Great War then OTL's German armies?

Your thoughts are welcome.
