Overview[]
An academy is an organized body of scholars supported by state funding, though generally independent of direct government influence, that coordinates research, establishes standards for their respective fields, and maintain various research facilities within their jurisdiction. The amount of power and influence an academy yields varies considerable between nations. In some, the a single academy may oversee multiple, or all, scientific disciplines, while in others each discipline is guided by its own academy. While academies dedicated to the natural sciences began forming in the 1600s, they truly began to flourish in the 1700s as royalty throughout Europe followed the model set by Frederick III of Prussia when he founded the Prussian Academy of Sciences in 1700.
