Cosimo de medici impacted the world by creating the first bank (medici bank) first cashed checks. He created first public library( San Marco) which studied classics. created the treaty of lodi which brought an end to all fighting between the city states. founder of college at Pisa, which focused on the study of Greek. he was a patron to famous artists like Leonardo da vinci, donatello, michelangelo, Brunelieschis, etc. His family were leaders of FFlorence for 100 years, making FFlorence extremely rich in both art, and money. may monumets such were created because of him, example Palazzo medici a mansion in honour of CCosimo. other designers used these classic designs for private mansions. Without Cosimo De medic we wouldn't have art by famous artists, we wouldn't have public libraries, and we wouldn't have banking (capitalism)

Christopher Columbus impact today can be seen through the various continents. He is the one who is credited with the discovery of the New World.
Built the largest unsupported dome in the world (at the time) with the help of the architect Brunelleschi. Was the official bank of the Pope, John the 14th I believe, check that. Was a patron to many artists, including sculptor Donatello. That's all I got. Technically he was the "ruler" in all aspects but the title or name of "ruler".
So much has changed that the only impact today is that it provides an interesting topic for Ancient History classes and study.

Michelangelo was raised in the de' Medici household, virtually adopted by Lorenzo de' Medici (aka Lorenzo the Magnificant), and raised alongside his own sons, Giovanni and Guilio. Both Giovanni and Guilio entered the church (as a cardinal and a priest, respectively). Both would later become Popes (Leo X and Clement VII). The de' Medici family had a love-hate relationship with Florence, sometimes banished, sometimes hunted and sometimes worshiped. Michelangelo's David was in fact made by Michelangelo to depict Florence as David to the Goliath of the de' Medici family. The hand was shattered into seven pieces when a bench was thrown out a window during a riot in 1527 which resulted in the de' Medicis once again being expelled from the city. This is generally considered somewhat ironic, as the statue, originally crafted as a protest against the de' Medici's, was damaged in another protest against the de' Medici family. None other than Vasari came to David's rescue, gathering the scattered pieces and placing them in safe keeping for later repair. Vasari had studied with Michelangelo, and he kept the pieces hidden until the de' Medicis were safely returned to power in Florence. He struck up an alliance with the new Duke, Cosimo de' Medici. Michelangelo, for his part, refused to accept Cosimo's control over Florence. He remained in Rome until his death in 1564. The Florentine government stole his body and removed it from Rome. They held a huge service in his honour, in spite of thirty years of enmity with Florence and the de' Medici family. Vasari went on to write the world's first work of art history, which glorified the de' Medici family's role in the rebirth of Art. It was dedicated to Cosimo, and was the first to use the term Renaissance to refer to this period.
