List of Vice Presidents of the Prussian State Ministry

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

List of Prussian Vice-Presidents of the State Ministry (Deputy Prime Ministers).

The associated category is State Minister (Prussia) .

This position was introduced by Bismarck so that he would be exonerated because the Prussian Prime Minister was also Chancellor of the Reich and this remained so until 1918 (with a brief exception in 1892/94).

The vice-president had an important position in the day-to-day duties in the management of Prussia's government affairs. Half of the incumbents were also vice chancellors , i.e. also the deputy prime minister at the national level.

Remarks

  • Different times are sometimes mentioned in the literature. This is because they refer to provisional assumption of office, appointment by the king and prime minister, formal inauguration; the same applies to a request for dismissal, approval of farewell and transfer of office / appointment of a successor. This can lead to gaps or overlaps, especially in turbulent times and if the predecessor is ill.
  • Other first names were sometimes used during his lifetime, as it later became naturalized in literature. Therefore the full name is given.
