Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the formation and evolution of the **German Customs Union (Zollverein)**, which began on January 1, 1834, with the participation of several German states including Prussia, Bavaria, and Saxony. Over time, more states joined, expanding the union's territory and population. The Zollverein aimed to create a unified economic area by standardizing customs regulations and tariffs. The article highlights the administrative and legislative processes involved in the union's operation, including the role of general customs conferences and the introduction of new customs laws. It also addresses the challenges faced, such as the need for unanimous decisions and the integration of new member states. The Zollverein played a crucial role in the economic unification of Germany, setting the stage for political unification. The article references various historical documents and treaties that shaped the customs union's development.
