"A continuation of the war by other means."
―Brockdorff-Rantzau on the Treaty of Versailles[src]

Ulrich von Brockdorff-Rantzau was leader of the German delegation at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference following the Great War.

Biography[]

Outraged at the terms laid out for an Allied peace in the Treaty of Versailles, which included the admission that Germany was solely responsible for the Great War, Brockdorff-Rantzau refused to sign the document and, as the nation has no choice but to agree, the role went to someone else.[1]

Behind the scenes[]

Brockdorff-Rantzau was played by Dutch actor Jeroen Krabbe in "Paris, May 1919".
