Otto Liebe

Carl Julius Otto Liebe was Prime Minister of Denmark 30 March 1920 to 5 April 1920. Otto Liebe was appointed prime minister after King Christian X had dismissed Carl Theodor Zahle and his cabinet, because of dissatisfaction with the amount of land ceded to Denmark in the Schleswig Plebiscite. This use of power by the king, which was based in the Danish constitution, led to the Easter Crisis of 1920, and Otto Liebe was replaced by Michael Pedersen Friis after 5 days. The incident also led to a revision of the Danish constitution later in 1920.
