Paul Josef Bachmeier (born 14 August 1948) is a Vierz politician who has been the Vice Chancellor of Vierzland since February 2012. He was the Mayor of Gidenburg from 1984 to 1992, and has been serving as a member of the Federal Assembly from Rastede's 4th district since 1997. He was made deputy chairman of the National Democratic Party in 2011.
Bachmeier was born in 1948 to a lower-middle class family in Belzig, Rastede. He was conscripted into the Imperial Vierz Army in 1967, briefly seeing combat in Caraq, until he was transferred to the Imperial Security Service. He left the military in 1976 and studied at the Imperial University of Gidenburg. He graduated in 1980 and attained his master's degree in economics from the Adtrus School of Economics in 1983. In 1984, at age 35, Bachmeier was elected mayor in Gidenburg, the youngest person ever elected to that position. He quickly gained national attention for his outspoken criticism of the Vierz military intervention in Luepola, drawing the ire of Kaiser Viktor IV and the military government in power. In January 1986, he was dismissed from his office by the Kaiser, sparking mass outrage that culminated in the 1986 Vierz protests demanding his reinstatement. He was reinstated as mayor in April 1986. In 1988, he was reelected mayor with a record 76.3% of the vote.
During his mayoral term, Bachmeier was elected as one of Rastede's representatives to the newly-formed National Assembly in 1990 as a member of the United Republicans. He worked closely with then-chancellor Heinrich Werner to author the new constitution, arguing strongly for republicanism and deimperialization, and identifying with the left-wing of the party. With the National Assembly's dissolving and the end of his second mayoral term in 1992, Bachmeier declined to participate in the 1992 elections. Despite this, he campaigned for various UR candidates across Rastede until his reentry into national politics in 2000. He left the UR during the Higmon Affair and joined the Democratic Labour Party.
Bachmeier swiftly became the leader of the DAP, and led the party to a landslide victory in the 2000 elections, securing a supermajority in the Federal Assembly.
