43 - Genghis Khan --
26 - Napoleon Bonaparte ++
45 - Alexander teh Great
6 - Julius Caesar
I'm baffled by the low vote Little Napoleon got. He was a brilliant commander who defeated and conquered many of the most powerful countries in the world at the time. It took a coalition of almost all the rest of Europe to defeat him. Even so his effects on societies and the legal systems of continental Europe were immense. He basicaly sparked off nationalism too.
Genghis Khan just conquered a vast sparsely inhabited region, nothing special for a a horse based warrior culture. Most of the glory of the Mongol empire came from the accomplishments of his successors.
