He was heir to the Grand Duchy of Baden and in October and November 1918 briefly served as Chancellor of the German Empire. He sued for peace on Germany’s behalf at the end of World War I based on U.S. President Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points, which included immediately transforming the government into a parliamentary system and proclaiming the abdication of Emperor Wilhelm II.

He was appointed Hulme Professor of Greek at Manchester between 1908 and 1913 and during this time travelled widely in Lycaonia, Phrygia and Galatia, collecting epigraphic and topographical material and developing his special interests in the Phrygian language and in the problems of the early spread of Christianity. After WWI, which he spent at the Admiralty, and the subsequent Greco-Turkish War, Calder set out on two archaeological expeditions, details of which appeared in a series of articles in 1924 and a book, Monumenta Asiae Minoris Antiqua, in 1925.view less
