Truculence. The blank is referring to something that makes the Prussians feared, and something that has led to internal fighting. Truculence—aggression or belligerence— is the best fit here. Neither ennui (listlessness arising from boredom) nor covetousness (envious desire to possess something) are indicated by any clues in the sentence, and neither would really inspire fear. Extravagance and opulence (both mean lavishness aren't especially threatening.
