Above:Emperor Michael I Von Hohenzollern of Germany, King of Prussia
The emperor of Germany, Michael I Von Hohenzollern, died of an unknown disease last night.
The Kaiser, who ruled Germany from 1979 onward after his father, Kaiser Louis Ferdinand I was assassinated, played a crucial role in German politics and government. His reign saw the end of the
Kalterkrieg with France, the establishment of the first SAPD government, the war in Zambia, and the collapse of Südwestafrika’s racist government.
The Kaiser was born in 1940 in Berlin. He was known for his interests in history, which he studied extensively. He had a particularly close relationship with his grandfather, Kaiser Wilhelm IIi.
He married Otto I of Danubia’s daughter, Andrea, in 1976- a particularly controversial act, considering that she was Catholic unlike the Protestant royal family, and was the first Catholic to marry into the family.
He is survived by his wife, Archduchess Andrea of Danubia, and his daughters, Michaela and Nataly. Because he had no sons, the throne will be passed down to his nephew, Georg Friedrich, or Friedrich IV.
His funeral will be held tomorrow.
