Question

Bismarck miscalculating the opposition and lighting a fuse that would explode a mere 48 years later in the same place it began, the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles, in 1919.

Answer 1

You could be speaking of Prince Otto von Bismarck's primary objectives were to create and ensure the supremacy of the Prussian state within Central Europe, and of the aristocracy within the state itself.

His most significant achievement was the creation of the modern German state, with Prussia at its core, through a series of wars and political maneuvering in the 1860s. The final act, the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–1871, saw Prussia break France's power on the European continent.
