Merkel’s rise to prominence can be attributed to her pragmatic and steady leadership style. She became the first female Chancellor of Germany in 2005, a position she held until 2021. During her tenure, Merkel navigated Germany through several crises, including the global financial crisis, the European debt crisis, and the migrant crisis. Her leadership helped solidify Germany’s position as a leading global economic power and a key player in the European Union.
