# Aristide Briand

> He served as France's Prime Minister eleven times but spent his political capital chasing a harder prize: making former enemies promise not to fight again. Briand won a Nobel for getting France and Germany to shake hands, then tried to bind the whole continent into a union decades before anyone else thought it possible.

## Bio

Aristide Pierre Henri Briand was born on 28 March 1862 and rose through the ranks of French Third Republic politics to hold the premiership eleven separate times. His attention fixed on what happened between nations rather than within them, especially after the Great War left Europe studded with graves. In 1926 he shared the Nobel Peace Prize with German Foreign Minister Gustav Stresemann for the Locarno Treaties, an attempt at Franco-German reconciliation when the trenches were barely cold. Two years later he helped forge the Kellogg–Briand Pact, an agreement meant to outlaw war itself, and by 1929 he was pushing for a "European Union" before the phrase had a real referent. The Great Depression unleashed the opposite forces — nationalism, revanchism, Nazism, fascism — and his architecture of reconciliation couldn't hold. He died on 7 March 1932, just as the ideas he'd spent a career trying to bury came back louder.
