Erzberger: Negotiating the Armistice for Germany

...was congratulated by General Hindenburg and his second in command, Wilhelm Groener.2 Groener’s ‘keenest expectations’ had been surpassed, while Hindenburg thanked him for his ‘extremely valuable service’ for the Fatherland.

The repute and reality of being a Roman emperor

...2). It is also worth remembering that many emperors had family connections with certain provinces and cities. The family of Trajan, for example, was from Spain and the emperor Septimius Severus came from north Africa.
