Johann history in Prussia / Germany

Classification: Query
Surnames: Johann
I have an ancestor, Julias Johann, b.~1833, we had always been told he was born somewhere in Germany, but the 1880 US Census lists his birthplace as Prussia. I was told that Prussia was a "germanic area". I'm not sure whether to be researching using Germany or using Prussia. Can anyone help me get started in the right direction? This is the first family member I've traced to outisde the US, so I'm kinda lost!

Thanks,

cherie'
