Clausewitz helped the Black Rebels in their initial successes against the French but eventually they were defeated but during the chaos Clausewitz escaped and eventually disappeared from public notice until 1832 when he resurfaced in California in an attempt to oust his long time rival Napoleon Bonaparte from power, however once more defeated Clausewitz fled once more arriving in Prussia in 1834

After gaining the support of King Fredrick William IV, Clausewitz once more took command of the Prussian Armies and lead the Nation in a second attempt to unify Germany under Prussian rule but Clausewitz was once more defeated by the Bavarian during the Saxon War of Dependence in 1838 in which saw Clausewitz once more defeated and sent to exile this time to the Austrian outpost in the West African Coast where Clausewitz would die in 1840.
