GERMAN CHANCELLORS SURVIVOR- winner: Willy BRANDT, over Adenauer !

[big bad fab]

IT'S OVER !

And, after a very competitive final round, with our biggest turnout, Willy Brandt eventually prevailed over Konrad Adenauer !



Not a big surprise, but it was a fine Survivor, I think,
with some early oustings: Bismarck, Brüning, Kohl,...
and some late ones: Kiesinger, Fehrenbach,...

And don't forget fine Survivors are "on": World Leaders, French 20th century, US governors
And more other Survivors will also come soon !

I let this topic open for any comment....

Nope, it's 10-8, including OWL's vote, of course.
