Former Kaiser Wilhelm II Dies at Doorn Estate
The former German emperor Kaiser Wilhelm II has died at his Doorn estate in exile. Historians note his damaged left arm and vanity fueled his desire for power and a Napoleonian ambition. He is cited as shaping idiosyncratic wartime stance and reactions from 1914 Sarajevo to the end of World War I.
