The Caprivi Cabinet formed the Prussian State Ministry appointed by William II, King of Prussia and German Emperor, from March 20, 1890, to March 23, 1892.[1]
History[edit]
The inauguration of the new cabinet after Otto von Bismarck's long reign was accompanied by a liberal-conservative domestic policy reorientation, the "New Course", which was intended to integrate the population groups that had been excluded by Bismarck's policies, Catholics and Social Democrats, into the German Empire. Due to the conservatives' opposition to many of the reform plans, they could only be implemented in a limited manner and Leo von Caprivi was replaced as Minister President after just two years by the conservative Botho zu Eulenburg. The leading head of the cabinet was the national liberal Finance Minister Johannes Miquel.[1]
