Look at this picture. It is a picture with 103 famous people in history who have changed the world with their actions and ways. How many people do you actually recognize? A bunch of them? Some of them? Any of them at all? In today’s world, many people only recognize 1/3 of the people in this picture. The most obvious ones are Michael Jordan, Bruce lee, Gandhi, Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Albert Einstein, Bill Gates, Napoleon, Confucius, Pele, Shirley Temple and some others. Many school children probably don’t even recognize all but a few, and that’s a sad thing really. These people of the (comprising mainly of the 19th and 20th century, not all) revolutionized the world with their ways and actions and shaped today’s society. It’s sad because they will never truly know what these people did unless they take it upon themselves to research about them, since they have become engaged in just doing other things such as playing videogames or meaningless activities.
Each and every one of these people and the buildings in the background shaped this world and are rightfully deserved of their spot. The pyramids made many people think of how they were made. The Stonehenge is an important monument to the world. The ships and kingdom in the background is important as well. Even George Bush is important, despite all of his misfortunes in being the President of the United States; he did shape America during his presidency. Many of the other famous people were the revolutionaries of the 20th century, they were Che Guevara, Lenin, Stalin, Fidel Castro are included in this amazing pictures. Celebrities are included also such as Shirley Temple, Mike Tyson, Charlie Chaplin, and Elvis Presley. Even Winston Churchill and Franklin Delano Roosevelt are in this because of their leadership during WWII. This picture is truly amazing and everyone should see it.
