They certainly do after Fritz takes over. :) Mind you, in the later 19th century there‘s also a weird masochistic „it was all for the best in the end, because only under the glorious House of Hohenzollern could Germany be unified, and we needed the discipline after our spendthrift days“ Saxon fannishness. Of course, NOW Saxony is, alas, one of the centres for right wing extremism, and there‘s vilifying of Berlin for entirely different reasons. :(

Yikes. All I remembered was that in the later 19th century is when the Saxons finally got around to defending themselves against Fritz's charge that they were totally part of the alliance to dismember Prussia and thus that invading them in 1756 was justified, and thus that the glorious House of Hohenzollern should *not* be unifying Germany. Until then, they had not bothered to counter his PR move.
