In March 1848, the German population of Schleswig, Holstein, and Lauenburg rebelled, and created a provisional government and army. As Holstein and Lauenburg were member states, the German Confederation supported the rebels as a federal war (Bundeskrieg) according to its statutes.These differences led in March 1848 to an open uprising by Schleswig-Holstein's German majority in support of independence from Denmark and close association with the German Confederation. The uprising was helped by the military intervention of Prussia, whose army drove Denmark's troops from Schleswig-Holstein. THE IRON CAST MEDAL ENGRAVED BY HEINRICH LORENZ IS 41.5 MM. IN DIAMETER ( WITHOUT THE HANGING LOOP ) AND ID IN VERY FINE CONDITION AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS.
