Answer

Otto von Bismarck, the German chancellor, was a powerful figure who opposed Frederick III's efforts to liberalize the German Empire. Bismarck's conservative policies and authoritarian rule clashed with Frederick's more progressive ideas. The conflict between the two men culminated in Frederick's dismissal of Bismarck in 1890, just three months after Frederick ascended to the throne.
