He frequently made impulsive and unpredictable decisions, such as creating conflicts with other European powers. He loved attention. He was vain and sometimes changed his costume several times a day. After he had fled to the Netherlands after World War I, he often went chopping wood and cut down about half the forest around his manor. Ti - He was interested in the strategic aspects of warfare and military technology and he made important strategic choices with his Ti, although sometimes impulsive. He used Ti for what he thought was beneficial, for example the construction of an enlarged navy as a way to influence the balance of power with the British Empire. The fact that he fired Otto von Bismarck is also an example of Ti, his independent thinking. Fe - He was sensitive to the opinions of others, especially when it came to maintaining influence.

He often tried to impress his subjects and world leaders. Ni - His idea of 'Weltpolitik' was Ni, but it was not always well thought out. Shortly after the outbreak of World War I, he began to feel some form of regret and concern about the consequences of the war, so in a way he correctly foresaw it might end badly – although it was too little, too late – which was also an inferior Ni moment. His decisions were often driven by short-term thinking and a lack of preparation for broader long-term consequences, which he frequently ignored, highlighting his inferior Ni.
