Everything about Georg Von Hertling totally explained
Georg Friedrich Graf von Hertling (
August 31,
1843 –
January 4,
1919) was a
Bavarian
politician who served as
Prime Minister of Bavaria 1912–
1917 and as
Chancellor of the German Empire from 1917 to
1918.
As leader of the largest party in the Bavarian
Landtag Hertling was appointed Bavarian Prime Minister in 1912 by
Luitpold, Prince Regent of Bavaria. Following the outbreak of
World War I Hertling supported the policy of Chancellor
Theobald von Bethmann Hollweg but declined to become his successor. Hertling became German Chancellor and Prime Minister of Prussia only after the fall of
Georg Michaelis in 1917 but was incapable of meeting the crisis during the final stage of the war. Due to his age and conservatism he was unable to overcome the power of the military high command, led by
Paul von Hindenburg and
Erich Ludendorff, despite having been a deputy to the
Reichstag and a leader of the
Centre Party. He was required to resign his seat when he took office under the Kaiser.
In civil life he was a professor of philosophy.
He founded the important German catholic fraternity
Askania-Burgundia and was a member of
K.St.V. Arminia at Bonn.
His great-granddaughter is actress
Gila von Weitershausen.
