## Bio

Bernhard von Bülow was born in 1849 into Danish-German aristocracy and followed his father into diplomacy after the elder Bülow became foreign secretary under Bismarck. He climbed through posts including ambassador to Rome before Wilhelm II made him foreign secretary in 1897, then chancellor in 1900. For nine years he oversaw economic growth and scientific progress at home while pushing an expansionist foreign policy that repeatedly misfired: his challenge to France in Morocco sparked the First Moroccan Crisis and tightened the Entente Cordiale instead of breaking it. In 1908 the Daily Telegraph Affair — Wilhelm's reckless published remarks — wrecked German prestige, and Bülow took the blame for letting it happen. He lost the Kaiser's confidence and the Reichstag's support, resigned in 1909, and retired to Rome. He surfaced briefly in 1914 as interim ambassador to Italy but couldn't keep Victor Emmanuel out of the Allied camp. He died in Rome in 1929.
