1862 - Otto von Bismarck
Becomes the prime minister of Prussia
He always stayed loyal to the monarch
Friedrich Wilhelm IV, his successors
Wilhelm I, Frederick I, and the
Military Kaiser Wilhelm II
Otto united Germany. Austria
Would never be as glorious again
Few imperial ambitions, so Britain
Was not rivalled or threatened, but he looked
For some African lands like all others
He retired after Wilhelm II
Made clear their differences. Otto saw dark
Shadows ahead, great European war
