The '''House of Hohenzollern''' is an [[German nobility|aristocratic family]] and royal dynasty of Electors, Kings, and Emperors, ruling over [[Brandenburg]], [[Prussia]], [[Germany]], and [[Romania]].

==History==
The family originated in the area around the town of [[Hechingen]] in [[Swabia]], [[Württemberg]] during the 11th century. They took their name from their ancestral home, the Burg Hohenzollern castle nearby.

The family uses the motto ''Nihil Sine Deo'' (English: Nothing Without God). The family coat of arms, first adopted in 1192, began as a simple shield quarterly sable and argent.

The head and shoulders of a hound were added in 1317 by [[Frederick IV]]. Later quartering incorporated other branches of the family.

The family later split into two branches, the [[Catholic]] [[Swabian]] branch and [[Protestant]] [[Franconian]] branch.

The Swabian branch ruled the area of Hechingen until their eventual extinction in 1869. The Franconian branch was comparatively more successful. Cadets within the Franconian branch ascended to the [[Margravate of Brandenburg]] in 1415 and to the [[Duchy of Prussia]] in 1525.

The union of Brandenburg and Prussia in 1618 created the [[Kingdom of Prussia]] in 1701, the state which led the eventual unification of [[Germany]] and the creation of the [[German Empire]] in 1871.

===World War I===
Social unrest at the end of [[World War I]] led to the [[German Revolution]] of 1918, with the subsequent formation of the [[Weimar Republic]] forcing the Hohenzollerns to abdicate, thus bringing an end to the modern German monarchy. The [[Treaty of Versailles]] in 1919 set the final terms for the dismantling of the German Empire.
