Friedrich von Müller

Biography

He was born at Kunreuth, Bavaria, studied law at Erlangen and Göttingen, and in 1801 entered the administrative employ of Weimar. His greatest political achievement was his inducing Napoleon to keep Weimar independent (1806–07). For this he was rewarded by being ennobled and raised to the post of privy councilor. Müller became chancellor in 1815, and from 1835 to 1848 was deputy.

Notes

    gollark: Node is a big thing to have to ship, thus no.
    gollark: Anyway, no use using this old program when it would be something like 10 lines of python to do yourself.
    gollark: Ah, so this is not actually particularly SSH.
    gollark: It would be much easier to implement a trivial websocket interface which just lets you run shell commands synchronously.
    gollark: Again, we need something usable by CC here.
