Invention Guides

Ideas on who I can make a biography of?

Guidelines are: Research and Explore the life of a historical figure from the past 200 years of world history Historically Significant and made a lasting impact on our world. American Inventors, figures, etc aren't allowed because it's world history, not US history. So, can you please list names on these kinds of people? I know that my friends already picked Leonardo Da Vinci, and those other famous painters, so try to list a name thats not popular, but he still was significant in our world. My report would have to be 6-10 pages long ofcourse double spaced, so I also need a person who has made a big difference, but with enough infromation so that I can fit those into my 6 pages.

1. On your gandparents. They will always have stories to tell you about.
2. Some less popular names: Eamon de Valera - Irish politician who schemed and got Ireland free (partly) - also became wildly popular there Lise Meitner - started the road to atom bombs
3. So America is not a part of the world and Leonardo Do Vinci lived less than 200 years ago. The things you learn... Alfred Nobel - dynamite Adolph von Baeyer - Nobel Prize winning Chemist Pierre and Marie Curie - too many things to name, multiple Nobel Prizes Sir Frank Whittle - turbojet engine Cecil Rhodes - Businessman, newsman, founder of the Rhodes Scholarships, used to have a country name for him. Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin - Airships Alexander Graham Bell - the telephone was only a part of what he did and was actually an offshoot of his work with the hearing-impaired.
4. Charles Darwin
