Detailed Solution

In Prussia, Junkers were large landowners.
In other words, the term "Junkers" refers to all members of the landed nobility who held large estates managed and farmed by peasants with limited privileges. Prussia won three wars with Denmark, Austria, and France for seven years, resulting in German unification. In addition, the monarchy repressed the liberal initiative in Prussia with the help of the military and Junkers. Thus, the Junkers were landlords and staunch supporters of the Prussian monarchy.
