Not by speeches and votes of the majority, are the great questions of the time decided — that was the error of 1848 and 1849 — but by iron and blood.

What it means
Our interpretation.
This declares that persuasion and voting can't settle the biggest questions, insisting force alone decides them instead. It's presented as a hard-nosed political stance, one that dismisses debate as insufficient for major outcomes. The claim reflects a particular, forceful worldview rather than a proven fact.
