In fact, the evaluation of Bismarck has always been a bit extreme in later generations, most of which are worship, while some of them are blindly belittling. Bismarck in real history is actually more diverse, not so flat, but a living person.

I love food, wine and beautiful women, so I suffer from obesity and various chronic diseases after middle age. His voice is small and sharp, his expression is pretentious, and he has a strong desire for expression. He is extremely sensitive inside, unwilling to reveal his true thoughts to others, and is used to formulating major policies in meditation rather than discussion. These psychological states actually make him more human. It is said that many colleagues at that time did not like him very much, especially his moody temper and unpredictable mind.

However, the character's own personality defects do not prevent him from becoming an indispensable figure in history. In particular, his grasp of the spirit of the times and prudent and restrained politician virtue are the main reasons for his great achievements. Many biographers will write about Bismarck, that is, Bismarck may have made many mistakes because of some things, but he is very good at reflection and observation, so he often seizes opportunities and changes the situation at some subtle opportunities. But this is far better than ordinary people.

he was absolutely loyal to Prussia. He improved the existing political system and power structure in Prussia and maximized its effectiveness, rather than through a revolution. Even when he was in power, he used his famous "iron-blooded policy" to get rid of economic difficulties and develop into a leading economic and political force while Germany remained unified, and at the same time, he used his excellent diplomatic skills to make alliances among European powers. In all fairness, it also benefited from the trust of Kaiser William I.

In fact, at that time, many foreign affairs were conceived by him. Therefore, over time, the German diplomatic and administrative departments were gradually occupied by a group of dutiful and capable bureaucrats who lacked judgment, and they became more and more dependent on the only "master brain". After Bismarck left office in 189, the successor Caprivi and others could not continue his complicated policy of "playing with seven crystal balls at the same time".
