Childhood and youth
Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck was born on April 1, 1815, in a place called Schoenhausen in Brandenburg. In those years, the city belonged to the state of Saxony in Prussia. The boy belongs to an ancient aristocratic family whose ancestors were famous political figures. Otto loves his father very much. His father was a retired cavalry captain after serving in the military. The mother spends all her time raising her children, but her son does not think of her tenderness.
The boy grew up with his brothers and sisters. There are 6 children in the family. Three brothers and sisters died in childhood. Otto is the fourth child. When he was one year old, the family moved to Pomerania and then to Konarzhevo, where the childhood of future politicians passed. The father inherited the property from his cousin. Here, the boy has a brother and sister Bernard and Malvina.
When Otto was 7 years old, he was sent to an elite boarding school in Berlin. Then he became a gym student at Graue Kloster. In 1832, the young man entered the University in Hanover, chose to study law and returned to Berlin one year later. While receiving education, Feng Bismai is also engaged in diplomatic work.

As a student, he often participates in a duel and rarely loses to his opponent.

Over the years, revolutions are taking place in Europe, where liberals and socialist associations struggle for the rights and freedoms outlined in the Constitution.
