I just want to see how many historians are here and who would they chose…
My #1 Choice… 
Otto Von Bismark… understood European politics like no one else… creator of Realpolitk and united germany, making everyone crap their pants…
2nd Choice 
Cardinal Richeleu, he was able to make france Europs strongest nation, and in the meantime kept germany devided and at war…for 30 years.
3rd Choice 
Henry Kissinger, ruthless, sometimes evil statsman, but equaly as brilliant and could force the future better than any gypsy.
