No ancestor in the US at this time, but I would have some very distant cousins in the US apparently from a certainly high number of degrees.

Wasn't Caesar already included? However voted for him and Marx. Without Karl Marx, historical changes are pretty big, even for WW2 because Russia's future is definitively changed without Marx's theory.

Only voted Gutenberg this time He legitimately helped the Renaissance to start and the consequences of printing is equivalent to the invention of internet. It probably contributed to religious wars and to the spread of innovations compared to past years where monks had to copy everything.

I am happy to be in line with most of the votes Here is how I justify my 3 votes Jesus : Arguably top 10 most influencal persons on the world history. The faith he delivered is still the first religion of the world if we pack catholics protestants and orthodoxs. Of course Pierre and Constantine also played an important role but without him christianity would probably not exist, and the impact would have been incredibly high on history considering that paganism and variants of hellenism would have probably remained in europe. Rousseau : Influenced Robespierre, Danton, the question is if he also influenced Marx and Lénine. According to me yes undirectly. When you read Lenine and Marx, you see a lot of inspiration from Rousseau, so he ended up being in my votes. He also theorized the modern direct democracy ideals, a lot of direct democracy pledges are inherited from him. Nehru : I voted for him with caution because I did not vote for a lot of others great leaders, but I do believe that he set the base of modern India and considering how hundreds of millions of individuals are living on his political legacy since 1948 that probably qualifies him.

I love how Hestia and Prongle are the most "main party aligned" so far @Pringles time to subscribe to the Wire.

My societal view is pretty easy to sum-up.

.....

May i ask you if it swayed your views on abortion / same sex marriage or others societal debates such as drugs or euthanasia? Note : I got my answer for same sex marriage, I was wondering for the 3 others too

Voted Homer and Hippocrates. Homer has paved the way for the antic era and its mythology for a thousand years, just imagine that Alexander and Hephaistion were paying tribute to Achille and Patrocle, it says about the cultural influence of Homer's writings over a thousand years. He is the first best seller author of history much probably. Still today, we learn in most of language's schools (I personnaly did in medium school) writings of a dude who passed away 2800 years ago. Hippocrates codified a lot of fundamental principles of medicine which still are codified or reinterpretated in several state healthcare's laws, just imagine how crazy it is.

.....

I voted for FDR and Euclid FDR decision to bring the US into war probably changed the result of WW2. Because, the USSR was also heavy supplied by the US from the moment that they were into war. Also FDR with his social policies has popularized Keynesianism the first before that Beveridge comes up with the wealthfare state, an economic policy which still been copied and used for about 40 to 50 years. I of course voted Euclid thanks to every consequences of his inventions including on architecture.

I just think that it is important to recall that it's worldwide and all-time top 100.

Confucius and Constantin the Great for their influence have my vote. Their legacy still exists today for both. Cicero was a close call but not only him inspired the Renaissance, also i find it amusing that the english translation of the word is actually still the french word.

But your list of options was seriously competitive 😄

Arguably the most difficult poll to me. Vcczar has put a lot of competition into this one.

I only voted for Caesar

Overall I quite agree with the order of votes.

According to me Aristotle and Atilla Aristotle definitively, Atilla more "likely" but it's like Bell in last polls, if he gets the top 100 it's barely but there are more reasons for him in my mind. Aristotle is the father of phylosophy, without him there's certainly no Kant, no Marx, no Voltaire, no Diderot no Rousseau no Montesquieu no Hegel. He definitively contributed to change the world even 2000 years after his death Atilla it's more on the consequence of his life and conquests than what he actually did. He provoked the barbarian migrations which reshaped Europe and the ultimate downfall of the Roman empire.

You do bring an interesting point !
