There wer many, but the two most famous would be:

  • Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington. This is the man who defeated the French in India and then the Peninsula, before he was glorified in the final defeat of the Emperor at Waterloo
  • Horatio Nelson, Admiral. Nelson was the national hero of England. People loved the Navy, and Nelson was it's darling. He was the man who destroyed the navy of France and Spain several times, before his most famous victory, Trafalgar - he also died there.
