And perhaps that he is still viilifed as the evil gluttonous ruler thirsty for world dominance are left-over sentiments she grew up hearing about (this is simply an assumption.) Remeber in England during and the build up to WWI there was severe anti-German feelings in the country which continued years after WWII.
Second, it should be known that Kaiser really wanted Germany to be a contender on the world stage, but so did Russia. Who nation didn't? It was the good for Germany at first, I believe... but it didn't turn out all that well.
I must also say that I am a Kaiser "fan" (as strange as it may sound.) He the most difficutl person to figure out. Clearly the guy had an emotional problems.. which leads me to the question: Do you think he had ADD, ADHD, or was he Bipolar? Page 11 is a good kick off regarding this issue. What was going on here?
