Potsdam is the capital city of the state of Brandenburg in
Germany.
As of
2007,
Potsdam had an estimated population of 148,691.
Although Berlin was the official capital of Prussia and later
the German Empire, the Prussian kings (later German Kaisers) used Potsdam as the
location for their court, until the last Kaiser, Kaiser Wilhelm II abdicated in
1918.
However, the city is most famous for being the location that the victorious allied
leaders
(Harry S. Truman, Josef Stalin and Winston Churchill, then
Clement Attlee) held a series of conferences on the future of
Europe in
1945.
