- Concerning the German imperial question, it is important, in my opinion, that their suggestion should not proceed from any other side, such as Your Majesty, and especially from popular representation. The position would be falsified if it did not derive its origin from the free and well-to-do initiative of the mightiest of princes who joined the alliance. I have allowed Holnstein to surrender, at his request, the draft of a declaration to my most gracious King, and with the necessary changes of the version to the other allies. (en)
- After the acceptance of Southern Germany to the German Constitutional Alliance, Your Majesty will extend presidential rights across the German states. I have agreed, in their conviction, that this would satisfy the interests of the German fatherland and its allied princes, but at the same time, trust that the rights conferred on the Federal Presidium by the restoration of a German Empire and of the German Emperor's dignity as rights which Your Majesty may exercise in the name of the entire German fatherland, on account of the unification of its princes. I have, therefore, appealed to the German princes, with the suggestion that they should bring with me to Your Majesty the suggestion that the exercise of the presidential rights of the Confederation be connected with the title of German Emperor.

- Top Secret. The King of Bavaria has been greatly pressed for money by buildings and theatres. Six million guilders would be very agreeable to him, provided the ministers did not know. For this sum, he would also make up his mind on the Imperial Proclamation and voyage to Versailles. The purpose of Count Holnstein's journey is to speak with Your Excellency. (en)

| - Kaiserbrief nennt man ein Schreiben aus dem Jahr 1870. Darin boten die Fürsten in Deutschland dem preußischen König und Inhaber des norddeutschen Bundespräsidiums, Wilhelm I., die Krone eines Deutschen Kaisers an. Anlass war der bevorstehende Beitritt der süddeutschen Staaten zum Norddeutschen Bund. Das Schreiben wurde vom norddeutschen Bundeskanzler Otto von Bismarck am 27. November 1870 aufgesetzt und durch Ludwig II. (geb. 1845, reg. 1864–1886) am 30. November 1870 unterzeichnet. Ludwig war als bayerischer König der ranghöchste deutsche Monarch nach dem preußischen König selbst. Den Kaiserbrief übergab Ludwigs Onkel, Prinz Luitpold von Bayern, der spätere Prinzregent (1886–1912), dem preußischen König am 3. Dezember 1870 persönlich. Der Brief sollte dabei helfen, den zögerlichen Wilhelm zur Annahme des Titels zu bewegen und dem Titel höhere Legitimation verleihen. Verfassungsrechtlich bedeutsam war jedoch nur ein Beschluss von Reichstag und Bundesrat des Norddeutschen Bundes. Der Beschluss vom 9. bzw. 10. Dezember gab dem preußischen König den Kaisertitel und dem gemeinsamen Bundesstaat den Namen Deutsches Reich. Nach dem Beschluss reiste eine Kaiserdeputation nach Versailles, also eine Gruppe von Reichstagsabgeordneten. Am 18. Dezember akzeptierte Wilhelm die ihm von beiden Seiten angetragene Würde. Die Verfassungsänderung trat am 1. Januar in Kraft, am 18. Januar wurde Wilhelm im Spiegelsaal von Versailles in das Amt eingeführt (noch während des Deutsch-Französischen Krieges). (de)

Ludwig II gave the impetus to the emperor's proclamation of William I in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles with this letter, which the Prussian King William I proposed to the imperial dignity of the newly founded German Empire, where, during the Siege of Paris during the Franco-Prussian War, representatives of the free cities congregated on 18 January 1871.
