Who was the greatest leader of the 20th century?

Answer 1

It is impossible to answer this question, because the world has hundreds of political leaders, some of whom are called presidents and others of whom are called prime ministers; there is no one objective standard to decide who is "the best." If you are asking about the United States, among the most popular presidents were George Washington, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan. But "popular" doesn't necessarily mean the best-- many presidents had wonderful personalities and the public loved them at the time, but their policies later turned out to be wrong for the country. Also, some presidents were not popular (or were controversial) in their time, but are today considered great-- Abraham Lincoln is a good example.

Answer 2

The greatest leader for the twentieth century would be a matter of opinion. In my opinion I would choose Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.; my second choice would be the Mahatma Gandhi. I choose them because I believe that the time has come to settle disputes without violence. I won't live to see this come to pass, but I hope succeeding generations come to learn the lesson of non violence.

Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

Answer 3

We do not have recorded history of the World's first leader or the leader of the first group formation. Records were not recorded on paper long ago. The Egyptians and other nations did keep records on carved or rather engraved stone. Abraham was the first leader of the Hebrew people. There were many leaders of other nations and people groups in ancient history. As far as being world leaders Britain, Spain, Italy, Greece, the Asian nations, Turks and Persians all had significant leaders who ruled large amounts of lands and people during recorded history. Use the word's "Ancient History Rulers" in your search engine or answer com or WikiAnswers com if you need more information.
