General Erich Georg Anton von Falkenhayn (11 September 1861 – 8 April 1922) was a German soldier and Chief of the General Staff during the first two years of the First World War. He became a military writer after the war. ==Early life== Falkenhayn was born in Burg Belchau near Graudenz (now Białochowo in Poland) in the province of West Prussia om 11 September 1861. Becoming a cadet at the age of eleven he joined the Army in 1880. He served as an infantry and staff officer and became a career soldier. Between 1896 and 1903 he served in Qing China, on leave for several years, and saw action during the Boxer Rebellion. He also pent time in Manchuria and Korea. Afterwards, the Army posted him to Brunswick, Metz, and Magdeburg; becoming a Major General in 1912. In 1913 he became Prussian Minister of War, in which capacity he acted as one of the key players in the genesis of World War I when the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria in Sarajevo took place. Like most German military leaders, he did not then count on an overall war, but he very soon embraced the idea and joined with others pushing for Kaiser Wilhelm II to declare war.
