Full name: Wilhelm Friedrich Ludwig, Emperor of Germany (1871-88) and King of
Prussia (1861-88). Upon the accession of his childless brother, Frederick
William IV in 1840, William became heir presumptive to the Prussian throne. In
1858, after the king was declared insane, William became regent, and three
years later he succeeded to the throne. A firm believer in the divine right of
kings, he declared at his coronation that he "ruled by favor of God, and of no
one else." In 1862 William appointed the Prussian statesman Otto von Bismarck
his chief minister. Subsequently they embarked upon a program of unifying the
German states under Prussian leadership. William was proclaimed German emperor
in the palace at Versailles on Jan. 18, 1871, while his troops were laying
siege to the city of Paris. During his reign William firmly supported the
militarism espoused by Bismarck as well as the latter's antidemocratic and
anti-Catholic policies. Two attempts to assassinate the emperor were made in
1878; on the second occasion he was seriously wounded.

Full name: Friedrich Wilhelm Viktor Albert, Emperor of Germany and King of
Prussia. (1888-1918). His policies helped bring about World War I. William's
first major action as emperor was his dismissal in 1890 of the aged chancellor
Prince Otto von Bismarck, who had been largely responsible for the growth of
the German Empire under the emperor's grandfather, William I. The emperor
believed that he ruled by divine right; foreign affairs interested him, but his
policies were contradictory and confused. He professed deep friendship for
Great Britain but drove that country into an alliance with France and Russia by
his aggressive program of colonial commercial and naval expansion. He was
buried with military honors by order of Adolf Hitler.
