Paul von Hindenburg once said: "Prosperity can come through peace alone. I have seen three wars. A man who has seen three wars never will wish another war. He must be a friend of peace."
He probably did want prosperity and peace for his German nation, albeit achieved through militarism and extreme nationalism. During his youth, he fought in the Austro-German and Franco-German wars. After a successful, but not exceptional military career, he returned from his retirement to lead the German army to victories at the Eastern front when World War One broke out, among which the famed Battle of Tannenberg and Battle of the Masurian Lakes, only to install a quasi-military dictatorship with Erich Ludendorff, as the war progressed. He died in harness, after serving as the president of the Weimar Republic for nine years but not before appointing Adolf Hitler as German Chancellor.
