I need to choose three people (non-American) who are influential and most succesful in what they did. For ex- Ghandi, and two other people (all helped in some kind of independence movement)
It can be anybody, but they have to be non-American.
-writers
-generals
-kings/queens
-religious leaders
-politicians
-artists
-greatest man ( ex: Caesar, Alexander the Great, Cromwell)
i want to stay towards the Global Studies topic....which three people should I write on?

the 3 people need to be within the same theme
ex: 3 writers--- not 1 writer, 1 artist, and 1 general

OK, do women of power: Elizabeth the First of England, Catherine de Mendici, and Elenore of Aquitaine. These women have a lot in common, in that they ruled their provences/countries at a time when women were seen as unfit to rule, and they swayed men to their side with a combination of personality, charm and ruthlessness. Also, Elenore was basically in power (through her son, Richard the Lionheart) at the end of the Middle Ages, Elizabeth ruled during a time of political and social expansion, and Catherine lived during the Renisaince.

If you are interested in History and influential people:
Maréchal Ney, Maréchal Murat, Maréchal Kellermann
These were some of Napoleon's best Marshals on the field of honor.
Good Luck and God Bless.

How about Stalin , Mau tse tung and Nelson Mandela . They all were successful in affecting great change in the politics of their perspective countries and you should be able to find a boat load of info on each of them. Could be really interesting they all did write and Stalin was the antitheses of Mandela. You may really get into it. I hope this helped, Good luck. TC messtograves.

Louis XIV of France, Peter the Great of Russia, Otto van Bismarck of Germany <-- all changed the courses of their countries, but Bismarck wasn't royalty while the other two were I'm not sure if that counts for you...
OR
Montesquieu, Rousseau, Voltaire ( I would substitute John Locke for him) All famous philosophers with great ideas!
