Is her full name still Angela Dorothea Merkel or did she remove Dorothea?
If Merkel remains as a caretaker chancellor until December 17, she will be Germany’s longest-serving chancellor since Otto von Bismarck, ahead of Helmut Kohl, whose tenure lasted more than 16 years.
Here’s the entire list (Merkel’s time isn’t fully updated in the link):
What’s with the deification of her coming from this sub?
I don’t remember, was there the obnoxious self congratulatory circlejerk about her being the FIRST FEMALE CHANCELLOR OMG. Not from her in particular, but in general.
16 years lost.
Lets be honest overall she was absolute trash she was environment minister in the 90s and as chancellor we lost the leading role in photovoltaik and in general a great slow down in more ecologic energy etc
under her leadership a rightwing nationalist party became strong enought to sit in the parliament
her party with a leading role in the european parliament are responsible for the worst new laws of the century like article 13 copyright law that leads to uploadfilters
under her leadership also happend a lot of corruption cases but only a tiny amount got punished nearly zero and laws where adjusted to protect support such political corruption and the worst part the one to overview and may use punitive actions in case of corruption in the parliament is Wolfgang Schäuble a guy involved in a few corruptionscandals like with weapondealers and more and he even steped back at some point because of this but came back like nothing ever happend a few years later
i think the only real positive thing one could say about her if you sum up all her fails and archivements her biggest ded was not to start ww3 on a whim
​
… btw i dont give her points for how she handled the refugee crisis to help people in need is nothing good or special its something you just should do as a human with ethics
In about 5 years we will scroll upon an article about her being in Gazprom director board or running some big russian funded company that doesnt have a defined purpose.
Imagine if she left just before she opened Germany’s doors to Migrants.
She would have been considered the greatest leader of all time.

I was 1 when that happened she literally stayed with me my whole life
Meh.
Stability over vision.
Stagnation over progress.
“Steering the ship through the storms” over “actually goin somewhere”.
She was competent and did well, but without a real goal excepting trucking on.
*Merkel been in power for 16 years* Reddit: 🎉🎉🎉
*Putin been in power for 17 years* Reddit: DICTATOR!
What is up with all these Angela Merkel posts lately ?
Can you please stop, and let her slip into the anonymity/unimportance she truly deserves ?
Thanks.
Putin,
Erdogan,
Merkel.
There can only be one.
do you think its healthy to have the same leader for 16 years ?
16 years and i now find out she has a middle name
Merkel has two Greek names ? Damn tragic irony I guess
*cracks nuckles*
*sort by controversial*
That’s when the EU really started going down hill, with the power this new fuhrer got.
I know nothing about her, but let me guess; she is a politician who promised fruitful things her entire life and maybe pulled through with two of them. Just so you guys know; it’s the same over here…
And she is the chancellor 4 years longer than Hitler was.
Post-WW2 Germany: Let’s repair the mistakes of the past
Merkel: Let’s bring in millions of people who are homophobic, anti-Semitic, and against women’s rights
Good riddance
I was 3 years old
16 years and the country is basically stagnating … We needed a switch like 8 years ago.
And now we have either scholz or laschet … oh boy.
What a shame that was. And lasted way too long
She plundered poor countries for cheap labour (millions of them) – thank God she’s gone!
Chancellor of Procrastination
4 years ago, on June 30, 2017, Angela Dorothea Merkel voted against gay marriage in Germany
Don’t deify this woman
If the new government isn’t formed within the next 26 days she will overtake her former mentor Helmut Kohl as the longest serving chancellor of the Federal German Republic. (2nd longest if we go back all the way and count Bismarck)
Is this photo from then or from now?
10 years later she made the infamous “Wir schaffen das” speech and caused a migration crisis which led to eurosceptic and nationalistic parties gaining power, Germany’s migration policy also directly contributed to BREXIT.
And did a goddam good job of it, too.
Reminds me how much we have to learn here in the USA
What a force. Great woman. Love how she makes Putin look like a troglodytes fool!!!!
And she has been a disaster for Europe. 2015 was a catastrophe. And the reason we have increased violence and insecurity in Europe. Colone in Germany they tried to cover up.
Thank god this has an End. Im from Germany and she wasnt good for this country.
