He studied in France and Switzerland, then later eventually became prime ministers of Iran. Mossadegh was selected as Time 's magazine’s 1951 “Person of the Year” due to his nationalization of the Iranian oil. We are revisiting him today due to unknown factors at the time that article was written such as the United States involvement in the 1953 coup, the 1979 revolution, and other events that arise due to previous events. Growing up, Mossadegh was surrounded by the political world. His parents came from a privileged class with his mother being a Qajar princess and his father serving as a finance minister.

The Persian Empire was the most powerful empire of its time with two great rulers. These two rulers were Cyrus II and Darius III. Which ruled the Persian Empire with great force of action but also with the understanding of others when it was needed and there culture. Now which leads me to say that I believe the best ruler in my eyes was the founder of the Persian Empire which is Cyrus the Great because he understood his opponents.
Genghis Khan was one of the most feared historical figures in history. He was a Mongol leader ( 1162 - 1227 ), he rose from humble beginnings to establish the largest land empire in history. Genghis Khan had red hair and green eyes, and apparently, both the red hair and the green eyes were family traits that a fair number of his grandchildren had. Red hair and green eyes are both somewhat uncommon, but not unheard of among the Mongols and other steppe peoples. Even today modern genetic studies show that steppe peoples tend to have a mix of European and East Asian genetic markers.
Genghis khan was born around 1162, near the border between modern Mongolia and Siberia. As Genghis Khan was born there was a legend that stated that he had a blood clot in his right hand, which meant he’d be an amazing fighter and conqueror. Before Genghis turned ten his father had been killed, poisoned to be exact by on of his enemy clans. Genghis’s clan had then abandoned him, his mother and six of his siblings in order to avoid having to feed them. Genghis then killed his oldest half brother to become head of the poverty stricken household.

Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, full name, Ruhollah Mostafavi Musavi Khomeini was seen as one of the most influential rulers of Iran throughout his life time. Ayatollah Khomeini was born in 1902 in Khomeyn, Iran and died in 1989 in Tehran, Iran. Due to Ayatollah Khomeini’s historical background, his regime on Iran and the ways he became a, so called ‘famous’ influence on Iran we can see just how much of an impact Khomeini really did have on Iran. Through his, what he thought was, extremely religious views, and rule over Iran, Khomeini achieved his goal of returning to Iran through theocratic rule. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini as his time as the supreme religious leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran from 1979 to 1989 persuaded many people of
If it was for a mere Republic, there would be no such election... Our people were resurrected for Islam, and determined the path for Islam’s sake.” (“Khomeini on a "non-Islamic Republic" explains concept of "Freedom" in Iran”). In this quote Khomeini highlights the fact that he was brought by an election. On March 1979 there was a referendum on whether or not the Islamic Republic should be established
From a secular point of view, the Pahlavi regime’s incessant abuse of power, overarching oppression, and limitations to basic human freedoms would have naturally fostered distaste amongst a certain group of the Iranian populace: broadly that of the educated, urban class. However, it is the imposition of Western ideals and alien values upon Iranian society as a whole which created even more disgust amongst the wider, general population. The Pahlavi regime might have perhaps been able to sustain the oppression of the Iranian people if his western backed policies were effective and popular with the Iranian people, but his failures with Iranian Oil and land reforms only exacerbated the situation. It was feared by many intellectuals that the growing westernisation of Iran, and more specifically Iran’s role with the west, would threaten the core traditional Iranian (and to some extent Islamic) values in society at that time. Hence, Al-e Ahmad, as the leading literary figure at that time, saw in Islam a medium through which to reunite an entire population, and as a force great enough to overthrow the Pahlavi regime; herein lies the core moral dilemma of many secular Iranian intellectuals at the
Introduction The meteoric rise of the Ottomans began in 1300s as they expanded throughout the Muslim World. By 1520, the Ottomans had reached their peak under the rule of Sultan Suleyman. Their rise saw them become the most powerful and influential entity in Europe and the Middle East.

a punishment like me upon you” . All which to portray the fact that Genghis Khan was the most influential political and military leader, perhaps Genghis Khan was the most influencial ruler of the ancient world.

Taha Hussein is well renowned Egyptian author; he was born on Nov. 15, 1898 and died in Cairo on Oct 28, 1973. Hussein’s childhood was very harsh and unhappy as he lost his eyesight at age of three by a barber who was a local practitioner. This disability affected him as he was mistreated and bullied by his peers in school and his parents inadvertently treated him as a liability due to his illness. However, Hussein overcame his obstacles and flew to France to finish his education after he took his bachelor in University of Cairo. He was the first Egyptian to receive a PhD from Sorbonne, France.
