I’d like to use this article to clarify my previous nine entries. Over the course of a few weeks, I have written nine semi-biographies of several individuals from human history. Why have I done this? Boredom mostly, but it goes a little deeper than that.
Although I spoke of him before. Fighting Jack Churchill deserves his own separate entry in this list. Unlike the others, Jack is neither famous nowadays nor was he a great conqueror of old. This doesn’t take away any of his awesomeness though.
Approaching the end of our merry band of jolly men we have Napoleon Bonaparte. No insane insylum is complete without one. And with good reason, Napoleon’s impact on the modern world was enormous, not to mention that he too is credited as being one of history’s most gifted generals.
Arguably the most promiscuous man in history (save for Rasputin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rasputin)), Genghis Khan was ruler and founder of the largest land-based empire in history.
Here is a name that should sound familiar to almost everyone as he is easily the most famous individual of ancient Rome. Besides that, he was also the single most central character more or less personally responsible for the transformation of the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire.
Leaving one military genius for another, our epic review comes to Hannibal. No, not the crazy serial killer from silence of the lambs, but the awesome ‘father of strategy’ of actual history.
Do you ever have days in which the universe just seems slightly of course? In which a number of low-probability (unlikely) events just seem to follow up on one another in the most absurd way possible? I don’t, I have weeks of the stuff.
Now I’m not going to lie to anyone. While Leonidas was awesome, nothing beats Alexander the Great. And I mean that literally, he is one of the few military commanders who was never defeated in battle. Ever. Think about that for a second.
