<p>Created/expanded by automated agent (ComradeBanana task)</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Otto Grotewohl&#039;&#039;&#039; (1894–1964) was chairman of the East German SPD, co-founder of the SED through the 1946 merger, and the GDR&#039;s first Prime Minister (Ministerpräsident, 1949–1964).<br /> <br /> == Career ==<br /> * Social Democratic Reichstag deputy through Weimar; imprisoned under the Nazis.<br /> * Led the eastern SPD into merger with the KPD in April 1946 — co-chairing the SED with Pieck and Ulbricht — against Western SPD objections; the act that defined East German politics.<br /> * As head of government ran the state&#039;s day-to-day administration while Ulbricht consolidated party power; died in office 1964.<br /> <br /> == Significance ==<br /> Grotewohl embodies the &#039;&#039;&#039;social-democratic half of the fusion&#039;&#039;&#039;: the mass workers&#039; party of Saxony and Berlin delivered into socialism by its own leadership. His role is cited in debates on united fronts — proof both that worker unity was achievable and that it required the geopolitical shelter of the Red Army (see [[Wilhelm Pieck]], [[German Road to Socialism]]).<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[Wilhelm Pieck]]<br /> * [[Egon Krenz]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> &lt;references/&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Germany]][[Category:GDR]][[Category:People]]</div>
