German monarchy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The German Monarchy existed formally from 1871 to 1918. The Holy Roman Empire is not considered truly German, since it contained many different peoples and languages. The idea of Monarchy in Germany today is rather mixed, as few remember the German Empire. Although the Government was in appearance federal, democratic, and monarchic, in practice it was actually quite authoritative. The Chancellor was chosen by the Emperor and was responsible only to him.

The German Empire was the most powerful country on mainland Europe for most of its existence, arguably being the most powerful country in the world. The Empire's greatest rivals were the French and Russian Empires, however the Empire that Germany most aspired to rival was that of the British despite the fact that both powers had maintained a close and healthy relationship for most of their existence.
