Prince Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck-Schönhausen Duke of Lauenburg was a very well known aristocrat and statesman. He was mainly responsible for unifying the many independent German countries and founding the German Empire in 1871. He became the firstchancellor of the new Empire.
Bismarck was very conservative and he was strongly connected to the monarchy. He was not a big supporter of democracy. His most important goal was to make Prussia stronger and he achieved that through the unification of Germany. Bismarck tried to stop the socialist movement and to reduce the power of the Catholic Church. One way to stop socialism was to make the working class happy. He did that by introducing many social reforms like public health and accident insurance, as well as pensions for old people.
