The Thirty Years War — Volume 01, written by Friedrich Schiller in the early 19th century, provides a detailed historical account of the devastating conflict that occurred in Europe from 1618 to 1648.

“Religious fanaticism anticipates even the remotest dangers. Enthusiasm never calculates its sacrifices.””
— Friedrich Schiller
“Mazarin shed tears over this great loss, which Conde, who had no feeling for anything but glory, disregarded. "A single night in Paris," said he, "gives birth to more men than this action has destroyed.””
— Friedrich Schiller
“Yet out of this fearful war Europe came forth free and independent. In it she first learned to recognize herself as a community of nations; and this intercommunion of states, which originated in the thirty years’ war, may alone be sufficient to reconcile the philosopher to its horrors.””
— Friedrich Schiller
