How should William I's role at the proclamation of the German Empire be understood?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: He was the king of Prussia who became emperor of the new German Empire
The governing concept is the completion of German unification under Prussian monarchy. William I was already the king of Prussia, the state that led the military and political unification process. At Versailles in 1871, he was proclaimed German Emperor, or Kaiser. Therefore, option A is correct; the other options confuse his identity with Italian or French figures.
