AnswerKaiser Wilhelm had no part in World War 2. He abdicated the throne of Germany after World War 1 and lived in Denmark. He died in 1942, less than 3 years after Nazi Germany started the Second World War.
The Nuremberg Trials between 1945 and 1949 were military tribunals called to try Nazi Germany's leaders after the war. The result was the incarceration and sentencing of many of Germany's perpetrators of crimes against humanity including acts associated with the holocaust. There were life imprisonments, 10 hangings but two escaped justice buy committing suicide.
