GERMAN EMPIRE

The foundation of the German Empire 1871 in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles concluded the Franco-Prussian War just as the existence of a large number of German states. The grandchild of the Emperor Wilhelm I ran a colonization politic with the aim to made of Germany a worldwide Empire following the example of the British and French Empire. As a result, an arms race grew between the competing European's Great Powers as much as a rise of the nationalism what made a World War inevitable: the trigger of that was the assassination in Sarajewo of Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne and took an end 1918 with the abdication of Emperor Wilhelm II.
