Otto Von Bismarck was a leader that influenced the unification of Germany. He was the prime minister of Prussia at this time. In his early years Bismarck worked as a civil servent, but he thought that was boring. He found it more interesting to be in command of other people instead of obeying them. That was the beginning of his role as a leader. He became the chancellor of the German confederation and he also designed the German empire. Napoleon was an emperor before Bismarck was even a teenager. He took over and organized some of the German states so that they were ruled by France. He encouraged freeing the serfs, made trade easier, and abolished laws against Jews. Napoleon was eventually defeated because the German people wanted s unified Germany not under French rule.
