Anti-German sentiment largely developed in response to the mid-19th-century unification of Germany, which made the new nation a rival of the great powers of Europe on economic, cultural, geopolitical, and military grounds. However, atrocity propaganda during World War I and Nazi war crimes during World War II have greatly strengthened anti-German sentiment.
