The Kaiser had autocratic control over diplomatic policy and this meant he could even dismiss his own chancellor. Basically he could control the entire political system of Germany as he could select people who agreed with his policies. He also made a rule that in order to rule the Kaiser must be a Prussian, ensuring his control over the German people. His rule also meant he could change the constitution so that these rules had to stay in place. The control of these factors played a big role in keeping his position a stable one.…
He had the power to do anything he wanted to. He keep on growing in the Nazi party. The more he went up in the party more people believed he could do what he wanted to do. When they went into battle he had people surrounded him to he could not die. When he was trying to be the leader of Germany he took out opponents so they had no chance a winning.…
During this time, Bismarck manipulated the Kaiser. He was not only the Chancellor, but the Prussian prime minister and the foreign minister too. In fact, in terms of policies, he was not even required to take account the views of the Reichstag. He had traditional conservative views, as he represented the Junker class. They were wealthy landowners and were economically very powerful before agriculture started to decline and peasants began to move to the city.…

With, Otto von Bismarck, Germany grew from a fragile union of states to a dominant empire. For the 19th century, Bismarck's policies limited the destinies of most of the countries of Europe. Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck-Schonhausen was born on April 1, 1815, at Schonhausen. Otto decided to learn law at universities in Berlin, and then entered the Prussian civil service. He then left the service and went back to his family but then entered politics in 1847. At the time the German states were not well organized and could never form tight bonds. Bismarck was determined to free the states from Austrian domination and to unite them under Prussian rule. Otto served as a delegate at the congregation of the German union and as representative to Russia and France. In 1862 he was appointed minister-president of Prussia.…

The reason for military action by both Napoleon and Bismarck was coherently to unify their countries. Bismarck however was trying to bring Prussia and the German states together as a whole. France was already one nation. Napoleon found that by military success through victories against Austria, Prussia, Russia, and Spain he strengthened France as a nation, which was not the case during the French Revolutions. Napoleon Bonaparte "was one of the greatest military commanders in history" (see http://www.lucidcafe.com/library/95aug/napoleon.html). Bismarck may have not been a commander but he was very skillful when it came to military conquest. He also succeeded in strengthening his country through the military successes in Schleswig, Austria, and France. Military success led way to the dominance of France, during Napoleons reign, and Germany, during Bismarck 's reign, in all of Europe. Another factor which both men compare to is, that both were very ruthless in the advancement of their countries interests.…
One reason is all of the things he did to unite Germany and turn it into a world power. In 1862, Bismarck was appointed minister-president of Prussia. When awarded the title, he made his famous speech that said, “The great questions of the day will not be settled by speeches and majority decisions but by blood and iron.” Bismarck then knew that he wanted Prussian influence to be the leading power in northern and western Germany (“Otto von Bismark”). Bismarck begin his quest for german unification first by engineering a dispute over subsequent administration of Schleswig and Holstein and instigating a war against Denmark.…
France was bitter due to the recent loss in battle, and Bismarck who was a Prussian Prime minister and the first German Chancellor was committed to keeping the peace in Europe. A rising France with a powerful European ally scared Bismarck, so his foreign policy of peace was mainly to isolate France. To achieve this he had to keep in good…
He used his charm and intellect to brainwash people into believing murdering innocent human beings was going to change Germany’s economic downfall, and bring a great new beginning. Many people went through the days knowing what was going on just outside their homes and down the street, but did nothing either because they condoned it, or because they were too fearful for their own life. But there were some who were brave and selfless, people who had the courage to risk their life to stand up against Hitler and the Nazi’s. They believed that the Jews and other minorities in those camps were humans just like themselves, and didn’t deserve the treatment they received. Because these people put their lives on the line daily, they will forever be…
