Description: "Konrad Hermann Joseph Adenauer (German pronunciation: [kna?t hman jo?zf a?dna]; 5 January 1876 ? 19 April 1967) was a German statesman. As the first post-war Chancellor of Germany (West Germany) from 1949 to 1963, he led his country from the ruins of World War II to a powerful and prosperous nation that forged close relations with old enemies France and the United States. In his years in power Germany achieved prosperity, democracy, stability and respect."--Wikipedia.
