Summary

In this second part we apply what we've learned about Bismarck and his use of psychology and information about his enemies to the international situation in summer 1870, and discover how Bismarck, only through his own sheer force of will, managed to manipulate the entire French Empire into obeying the course he desired. It was of course despicable, but there was also something incredibly fantastic about the whole ordeal, and I believe he's earned himself a miniseries through acting, so let's make it happen and bring Patreon to $1,000 a month!
