Last Kaiser of Germany

November 9, 1918: Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany abdicated after the German Revolution. He consented to the abdication only after he was informed that the officers and men of the army would march back in good order under Paul von Hindenburg’s command but would certainly not fight for Wilhelm’s throne on the home front.
