    1. Napoleon Bonaparte, French emperor, general. Beliefs: Catholic (nominal). Died in exile. (100%) <--I am pleased.

    2. Winston Churchill, British wartime prime minister. Died after suffering a stroke at age 90. Religion Anglican. (100%)

    3. Buddha. Gautama Buddha was a spiritual teacher from Ancient India and the founder of Buddhism. He is generally recognized by Buddhists as the Supreme Buddha (Sammâsambuddha) of our age. The time of his birth and death are uncertain: Best estimates are 400 or 500 years before Christ. Beliefs: Hinduism; Buddhism (96%)<-- just, wtf

    6. Genghis Khan, Mongol conqueror. Founder and ruler of the Mongol Empire, the largest contiguous empire in history. Beliefs: Mongolian shamanism (87%) <-- I personally liked this.

    Yours is not the worst, I am being compared to Churchill and Buddha, and I'm a catholic, I'm not complaining about Genghis though because he's awesome.
