Who or what is kaiser?
The Kaiser was the Emperor of Germany. During WWI he was Wilhelm II, who inherited his job when the first Kaiser, his father, died in the late 1880s. These were the only two Kaisers of Imperial Germany, because Germany was not united into the single nation of Germany until 1871. They were of the House of Hohenzollern, who before German unification were the Kings of Prussia. "Kaiser", like "Tsar" or "Czar" (who was the Emperor of Russia) are titles derived from the ancient Ceasar of Imperial Rome two thousand years ago. Wilhelm II was an unpleasant, vain, pompous man whose wild and reckless enthusiasms helped destabilize Europe in the decades before WWI. He lived on in exile in the Netherlands until 1940, long enough to see the Nazis come to power in Germany. They would have welcomed him back home for the legitimacy he would have given the Nazi regime in the eyes of many Germans, but Wilhelm despised the Nazis. Imagine, a corporal running his country! There are still Hohenzollern descendants rattling around Europe, waiting for the world to come to its senses and restore them to their rightful place lording it over everybody else.
How were the foreign policy goals and achievements of Metternich and Bismarck similar and different?
Metternich and Bismarck wanted different things with Europe. Metternich was an advocate of Balance of Power and fought for this at the Congress of Vienna. Bismarck, on the other hand, wanted to create a super powerful Germany through the unification of German states. Bismarck believed in Realpolitik, a machiavellian theory that states that the power of a nation should be placed above any ideological or moral standard.
Why did Otto Von Bismarck also known as the architect of German unification seek to preserve peace in Europe after 1871?
Bismarck was a dipolmat. It was his job to talk and not fight. Not to mention that war is never a good thing for a new nation and if there was a war in Europe, there would most likely be fighting on two of Germany's border, maybe three, which is not a good situation to be in.
Why is otto von Bismarck famous?
