Place in the sun

Place in the sun

"A place in the sun" was a phrase coined by William II, German Emperor on June 18, 1901, to refer to Germany's colonial empire. [Hart (1920), p.95]

It became more widely used to refer to the German desire, as a new nation, to be treated with respect by other European powers.
