The HORRIFIC Death Of Kaiser Wilhelm II - The Last Emperor Of Germany

In June 1941, after spending decades of his life in isolation Kaiser Wilhelm II, a man who is considered the main warmonger who brought the First World War to Europe died in The Netherlands. He was a man who had animosity for many countries across Europe, and he also would live to see the Second World War break out across the continent, however the Nazis who were now in control of Germany would consider what to do with the body of the former emperor. But Kaiser Wilhelm II was the last emperor of Germany, and he was a man who built Germany up to become a great power which resulted in the First World War, but he was a man who was the eldest grandchild of Queen Victoria the British Queen. He would call the shots following the death of Victoria, and dictated for a death mask to be cast of his grandmother’s face against her will. But as mentioned following the First World War he would flee Germany and he lived out the rest of his life in exile. But what is the story of his death?

My German language teacher was a child in the Netherlands in the town where the Kaiser lived. As a child, my teacher visited the Kaiser on many occasions. He describe him as a kind man.

[@jackyanderson9330]

He was a real hero. He was defending his land and his people. There is an old adage that whom much is given, much is expected. He was an Emperor and he never wanted his country or his people to be subject to any foreign rule. No head of a family will want any member of his to be subject to another person or people outside the family anyway. He never wanted that war with Great Britain to the best of my knowledge. Afterrall he has British blood. But much was given to him to be the defender of his land and his people. So he wasn't a Dictator. He was the father of the land and no father will want /like you to come and mistreat his children for any reason. The difference between him and his cousin the King of Great Britain was a family feud which he never wanted because he has deep love and respect for his Grandmother Queen Victoria and his maternal land Great Britain. We who are living in this modern generation should not forget that the Anglo Saxon relationship is one of the oldest in the history of man both in language and culture. Let's eschew our differences in the past and work for a better tomorrow. I love that.

[@takashitamagawa5881]

I wouldn't say that he was a warmonger, he certainly wasn't solely responsible for all the death and horror of WWI. Austria-Hungary and Russia bore more direct responsibility for what happened in the summer of 1914. But Germany and Prussia in particular were in the strongest position to stop the war from breaking out and widening. Tragic that his father Frederick III had only a few months on the throne, it seems likely that he would have resisted the more militant elements within the government rather than have Germany embark on an arms buildup and ultimately sign off on the Schlieffen plan to invade France through Belgium. A wiser ruler could have recognized Germany's position in Europe as one of being potentially surrounded by enemies. While Bismarck did recognize that sobering reality of Germany's situation and who as Chancellor sought out alliances his foreign policy had the flaw of leaving France totally out in the cold.

[@scottabc72]

France literally had a policy of 'revenge' (revanche) with the stated goal or retaking Alsace-Lorraine and it was on this basis they secured an alliance with Russia decades before WW1. Britain joined the alliance simply because Germany was building a fleet that approached the size of the British Navy. There was plenty of blame to go around for WW1

[@takashitamagawa5881]

@@scottabc72 The relative roles of Germany and France in the outbreak of war in 1914 can certainly be debated. It should be noted that there were those in the Prussian leadership in 1870-1871 who had misgivings about taking Alsace-Lorraine knowing what it could mean for the future. Going back to Kaiser Wilhelm II the point I wanted to make is that he can't be held responsible for the outbreak of WWI in the same way that Hitler is held responsible for the outbreak of WWII a quarter century later. The situation in 1914 was far murkier.

[@scottabc72]

[@ISIO-George]

Not going to write a long post about every country's role. Just going to say there is plenty of blame to go around, and none of the major powers were sinless in trying to prevent the war. One part of events, that is usually not mentioned in the march to war, is that literally at the 11th hour, when it finally sunk in for Germany that Britain would enter the war, Germany desperately tried to get AH to call off it's invasion of Serbia, which was about to begin. It was to no avail.

I’ve always thought that Bismarck was the real power in Germany up to the 1880’s. Bismarck used force to unite Germany but a also introduced much social reform. Perhaps, they wouldn’t have had WW1 if Wilhelm had listened to Bismarck. To start a war was not declared illegal until the founding of the League of Nations so no matter how bitter everyone was, the Kaiser and his generals could not have been declared criminals for starting a war. How do you think the English Empire was founded? Even though starting a war is now illegal, instigators of war are rarely punished.

The whole narrative that the Kaiser was responsible for World War I is pure and utter bullshit.

[@Piepsiify]

Germany was united in 1871 after a war against France wich was started by France to a trick of Bismarck (Emser Depesche). Bismarck was some kind of political architect for a unitied Germany. He implemented a system of peace treaties with other countries to make a war very unlikely because that war might have escalated quickly. Later Austria-Hungary declared war against Serbia (Franz Ferdinand assasination), Russia declared war against Austria-Hungary, because of that Germany declared war against Russia and so on…

[@evancoker194]

Bismarck built modern Germany. The old Kaiser and Bismarck stood behind each other respectively. They knew what they were doing.

Recent biographers who have re-examined the life of Wilhelm II do not consider him a warmonger. That turned out to be the British propaganda at the time of WWI. In fact, Wilhelm II spent many of his summers in Great Britain and loved his grandmother, Queen Victoria and the UK. He worked very hard at diplomacy to keep WWI from starting. His generals did want the war. Also although Wilhelm II wrote diplomatic letters to Hitler who was then the leader of Germany, he was never fooled by the Nazis and always intensely disliked and mistrusted the Nazis Party.

[@rolandcharriez7631]

He had a withered arm. I think it was due to his birth when during that time.

[@sanderdeboer6034]

This video is a bit too one sided in my opinion, and while I agree that Germany played a pivotal part in the start of WW1, and the Kaiser was a war monger who didn’t want to show ‘weakness’, both Germany and the Kaiser can’t be blamed for the total outcome of WW1. Most historians agree that when taking in all the facts and circumstances all powers involved bare responsibility for the prolonged war and its many casualties. The reason why the Kaiser played the role he did, has to do with a complex of factors. Like his very HARSH upbringing and ‘treatments’ to correct his arm, which was non functioning because of a problem at birth. The fact all royals in Europe are connected to each other and basically one family, also played a part in this. Wilhelm was very fond of Queen victory and the UK as a country. Which he frequently visited, however he had a love hate relationship with England when it came to other relatives and the UK as a whole. He also grew up in a time where having a handicap was seen as a big problem, which caused him both psychical and mental suffering. Plus being a military focused person was ingrained in him from a very early age. In front of the palace he grew up in, there was a miniature fortress with actual working miniatures canons. You have to see his actions within the context of his time and circumstances, but to be fair, he was a vulnerable narcissist with annoying threats. One of the things I can still remember from visiting Huis Doorn here in the Netherlands is the eating arrangement. People could only start eating when the Kaiser started, and had to finish if he finished. Meaning that often people hardly eat at all, and were still hungry after leaving the dinner table. He also loved to chop wood, and probably chopped down most trees around Huis Doorn. But he did donate the wood to surrounding villages so people could be warn in winter. A very complex and difficult character to judge, however I do understand the hostility towards him. I am against the death penalty myself, but given the fact thousands were shot during WW1 for often not even doing anything wrong, he deserved it much more then them.

[@rog4864]

From what I have read, the Kaiser was in no way a warmonger. In fact he had come up with a plan for peace the he had submitted to his cousins King George V of Great Britain and Tsar Nicholis of Russia and from what I read , they both agreed this plan could work and keep peace. But the ministers or cabinet officials of all three Monarchs defied their orders to not mobilize and so the Kaiser was forced to mobilize his troops as well. To call this man a villain for all time is a real injustice to him and his family.

[@M-I-k-e1301]

I don’t get why people don’t hold Russia at least somewhat responsible for ww1.

Queen Victoria in the royal family in England were related to the royal family of Russia

[@kfemme68]

Queen Victoria married her children into all or most of the royal families in Europe. Some say it's the reason that the Romanov's had the downfall when they did because she also passed her hemophilia on to many of them also. Victoria passed her hemophilia to her daughter Alice who then passed it down to her daughter, Alix (who became Alexandra Feodorovna) who then passed it to her only son. Alexei (the heir to Tsar Nicholas II) was born with it and Alexandra would try anything to cure it thus how Rasputin wormed his way into the palace. He took advantage of a desperate mother who would do anything, pay anything for her son to be cured so she couldn't be blamed for having an heir that probably wouldn't survive to take his place after his father. WWI (probably had the most to do with it and that you can lay at the feet of her cousin Kaiser Wilhelm) and Alexandra's German heritage had a little more to do with their downfall than Rasputin and the hemophilia but it all played a part.

[@svenerikjohansson8130]

It is true he was considered a war monger by the western powers, but the first fighting in WW1 was, if I´m correct, between Austria and Serbia, after the assacination of the Austrian crown prince Franz Ferdinand. Austria was allied to Germany, and Serbia was allied to Russia, and Russia to France which led to a much larger war, so the situation was much more complex than it was in 1939, when first Germany, and then the Soviet Union, invaded Poland, followed after 2 days by Brittish and French declarations of war against Germany.

He wiped out untold acres of woodland, with huge piles of wood neatly stacked...sort of like bodies in piles.
