German words are just so meaty and rewarding to say. “Reichstag” brilliant. Even the names – Gustav Freytag, brilliant. Sounds like a super hero.
Here are the results:
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1898_German_federal_election](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1898_German_federal_election)
The diagrams below show the contributions by states to the federal government and taxes/debts. In the top right, it shows the representation by state and below shows the percentage of qualified voters (civilian men above 25 years of age not convicted of a crime) and average population by constituency. Voter turnout is right below it. Below that are the average populations of the constituency by state. Below that is the historical vote. “Stichwahl” means second-round vote, that means if no candidate got over 50% in the first round and those members are italicized. Bottom left has the figures if seats were apportioned by proportional representation.
