The idea here is taken from Vinization on AH.com:
Like it says on the tin. Is it as simple as just having the king of Prussia accept the Frankfurt Parliament's "crown from the gutter"? What about a quick, decisive victory at the First Schleswig War (perhaps with a victory at Dybbøl, a couple months before the armistice of Malmö in August 1848?), is it possible for the Prussians and the rebels from Schleswig-Holstein to present a fait accompli before the other Great Powers intervene on Denmark's behalf?
I assume Austria wouldn't be happy about such a development, so what would it take to distract them before they can interfere in this potential German unification? Could a longer, nastier war in Hungary and Italy suffice?
