Aristotle was a Macedonian. Calvin was Swiss. Marx was Rheinisch/Jewish. The Kaiser or Nietzsche, however, assume the gravity and responsibility for a whole civilization and don't even attempt the hubris of proposing one single policy for all diverse particular polities.

Is the Kaiser not higher than the petty duke? Is the imperial framework not higher than provincial policies? The duke can fumble his way through policies until he is either successful or bankrupt, because it ultimately does not matter for Germania...

In the context of the Holy Roman Empire, Nietzsche's thought made sense, and was an evolution in thought; he proposed the validity in the proposal for an active evolutionary choice in itself, in opposition to the Christian framework of relinquishing that agency to God...

“This, incidentally, is almost the whole weakness of Nietzsche, whom some are representing as a bold and strong thinker. No one will deny that he was a poetical and suggestive thinker; but he was quite the reverse of strong. He was not at all bold. He never put his own meaning before himself in bald abstract words: as did Aristotle and Calvin, and even Karl Marx, the hard, fearless men of thought. Nietzsche always escaped a question by a physical metaphor, like a cheery minor poet. He said, ‘beyond good and evil,’ because he had not the courage to say, ‘more good than good and evil,’ or, ‘more evil than good and evil.’ Had he faced his thought without metaphors, he would have seen that it was nonsense. So, when he describes his hero, he does not dare to say, ‘the purer man,’ or ‘the happier man,’ or ‘the sadder man,’for all these are ideas; and ideas are alarming. He says ‘the upper man,’ or ‘over man,’ a physical metaphor from acrobats or alpine climbers. Nietzsche is truly a very timid thinker. He does not really know in the least what sort of man he wants evolution to produce. And if he does not know, certainly the ordinary evolutionists, who talk about things being ‘higher,’ do not know either. Then again, some people fall back on sheer submission and sitting still. Nature is going to do something some day; nobody knows what, and nobody knows when. We have no reason for acting, and no reason for not acting. If anything happens it is right: if anything is prevented it was wrong. Again, some people try to anticipate nature by doing something, by doing anything. Because we may possibly grow wings they cut off their legs. Yet nature may be trying to make them centipedes for all they know.” G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy (1908).
