Why did the revolutions of 1848 achieve so little in Germany?

The German Revolutions where sparked off by the overthrowing of the French King Louis-Philippe. The news spread and sparked off revolutions in many small southwestern German states that gradually spread northwards. These revolutions received help with information from Vienna that Metternich was no longer in power. Peasants stormed castles, attacked their lords. Artisans destroyed machinery that was destroying their livelihood. Radical republicans attempted an armed uprising in Baden but this attracted little to no public …

…Germanic peoples had always been lead by one single person a king or a Prince. They therefore did not have much faith in democracy and also one person would be able to pass laws without opposition whereas the parliament couldn't. The Germanic people needed strong leadership like that of Hitler or Fredrick Barbarossa. That is why I think the 1848 revolution achieved so little; it was the mentality of the Germanic people that failed the liberals.
