When was caprivi chancellor

The Treaty signed with Great Britain was followed by a series of trade agreements with Austria, Italy, Romania, Serbia and Russia, which substantially lowered German customs tariffs in order to encourage the industrial and commercial expansion of the country.

The kaiser Guillermo II, in appreciation of the economic work, conferred the title of count.
