Detailed Solution

The Zollverein was formed to abolish tariff barriers.
Most German states joined the Zollverein, or Customs Union, established in 1834 at Prussia's urging. The trade alliance eliminated tax hurdles and reduced the number of currencies from over thirty to two. Furthermore, the formation of railroad routes tied financial incentives to national unification while stimulating mobility. In addition, the rise in economic patriotism strengthened the universal patriotism that previously existed. The goal of the Zollverein was to unite Germans as a country on the economic front by abolishing tariff barriers. Thus it helped to establish a free trade area throughout much of Germany.
