Answer 1

It would be very interesting if you would cover Adolph Hitler. There are some interesting facts about him like:

Adolph Hitler had a half brother named Alois Hitler, he owned a bar in Germany that was frequented by prominent Nazi officials. Alois would never share his opinion on Adolph because he was afraid Adolph would revoke his liquor license!

•
Adolf Hitler had some Jewish heritage in him. His great great grandmother was Jewish who was a maid.

•
Hitler ordered tanks to be made in Michigan and told the company to not worry about sending them to Germany, he'd 'pick them up on his way through Detroit.

•
"Quisling," which is used to describe a traitor, was the name of Vidkun Quisling, a Norwegian fascist and supporter of Adolf Hitler, who was appointed Führer of Norway in World War II. Arrested in 1945, Quisling was so despised, Norway broke with their centuries-old policy against capital punishment and executed him.

•
Hitler's 3rd grade report from his teacher remarked that Hitler was...'bad tempered and fancied himself as a leader.'

•
Adolf Hitler was fascinated by hands. In his library there was a well-thumbed book containing pictures and drawings of hands belonging to famous people throughout history. He liked particularly to show his guests how closely his own hands resembled those of Frederick the Great, one of his heroes.

•
The NY phone book had 22 Hitlers before WWII. The NY phone book had 0 Hitlers after WWII.

•
Hitler was voted Time Magazines man of the year in 1938

•


Adolph Hitler kept a framed photograph of Henry Ford on his desk and Ford kept one of Hitler on his desk in Dearborn, Michigan. Hitler had used in 'Mein Kampf' some of Fords anti-semitic views, and he always welcomed Ford's contributions to the Nazi movement.

and some claims he only has one testicle! his life is soooo fruitful, he'd be very good report

Answer 2

that's a pity you reported "non-non secular figures purely" because truthfully Jesus Christ (even if you opt for to be counted on him) has had the finest result on the international. the finest artwork, structure and far of the international's most proper literature and music has been committed to Him or has been produced accordingly of his impression. except for Jesus Christ, there have been lots of those who made an result on the international although that's tricky to settle on everyone individual, considering the fact that many tremendous adult males and females people have equipped upon the principles of others. What this proves is that at the same time we are more beneficial than we are in my opinion (that's a Christian preparation!) Gutenberg's press really inspired the dissemination of thoughts, yet he himself become no longer an outstanding logician or logician. this is the blend of thoughts, their dissemination, medical advances and social reform that has produced present day civilization. the way you pose your question means that you're not to any extent further a student of heritage and imagine of events as occurring in a vacuum, while truly each and everything that occurs is the outcome of many stuff that went earlier.

Answer 3

the Most Important in Western Civilization would be Jesus, Those in the far East would be Budda and the Middle East Mohamed.
However as all 3 of these people have been subject to a lot of propaganda and changes in their teachings no doubt over the centuries it would be hard to treat them in the context of real History.
For that you would have to look at some of the more popular figures throughout the worlds history and choose.
The trouble is you have set yourself a very large task as so many fall into the most important person, as the diversity is so great, you should choose a more precise question, like sciences, politics, war leader, religion, etc.
Good luck with the essay, quite frankly at the moment your question is unanswerable.

Answer 4

It really does not matter who you pick, you have to show a structured and reasoned argument for them and why you discounted other choices.

For the sake of having to choose I'd go for Churchill as without him Britain would have probably lost the war against Hitler who would have extended his Third Reich across Europe defeated Stalin as he did not have to fight ion two fronts and then taken over America and we would all be citizens of an Orwellian Third Reich

Good luck with the essay

Answer 5

Like JC said: Gutenburg.

Most historians will agree that the invention of the printing press was the most important event EVER. It was the first step towards Man's enlightenment.

So, naturally, the guy who invented it should be considered the most important person ever in history.

Answer 6

I might go with Johannes Gutenberg; his printing press helped make reading more available to the masses, which causes a dramatic increase in intelligence all over the world. This allowed for ideas and improvement to spread more quickly.

Answer 7

Johannes Gutenberg. By man is considered the best man in the history of the world. Creating the printing press, you allowed the creation of newspaper, media, and basically intellectual culture.

Answer 8

Jesus doesn't count, he was the son of God. He was supposed to be important. I would say the most important person is the one who left an impact on every single person on earth. I'd say Alberto Einstein. He changed the way we think about reality, especially time and even left us to work on something else that's too complicated to finish it. I don't think we will though, until I get my Ph D in Physics of course.

Thank you.
