Another, even less liked one would be Enver Paşa, a prominent Turkist, although not the best military leader, who has fought and died for the freedom of Turks in Turkestan.

Well, both lost the war, to be honest.
There surely is no way of losing a war without dying.

That center mounted potato gun combined with the 109's ability to climb in the vert was hell on spitfires...for a time.

Julian gets my vote.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

In no particular order...

Sun Tzu

Tokugawa Ieyasu
Founder of the Tokugawa shogunate which ruled from the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 until the Meiji Restoration in 1868.


[Image: 160px-Milkau_Oberer_Teil_der_Stele_mit_d..._369-2.png]

Hammurabi
Sixth king of Babylon (that is, of the First Babylonian Dynasty) from 1792 BC to 1750 BC middle chronology. He became the first king of the Babylonian Empire following the abdication of his father, Sin-Muballit, extending Babylon's control over Mesopotamia by winning a series of wars against neighboring kingdoms.


[Image: ashoka.jpg]

Ashoka
Indian emperor of the Maurya Dynasty who ruled almost all of the Indian subcontinent from ca. 269 BC to 232 BC. One of India's greatest emperors, Ashoka reigned over most of present-day India after a number of military conquests. His empire stretched from present-day Pakistan and Afghanistan in the west, to the present-day Bangladesh and the Indian state of Assam in the east, and as far south as northern Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.


[Image: constantine1.jpg]

Constantine The Great
Key figure in the establishment of Christianity as a major world religion. Played the Roman Tetrarchy like a fine instrument. Well known for being the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity, Constantine and co-Emperor Licinius issued the Edict of Milan in 313, which proclaimed religious tolerance of all religions throughout the empire. The foremost general of his time, Constantine defeated the emperors Maxentius and Licinius during civil wars. He also fought successfully against the Franks, Alamanni, Visigoths, and Sarmatians during his reign—even resettling parts of Dacia which had been abandoned during the previous century. Constantine built a new imperial residence in place of Byzantium, naming it New Rome.


[Image: Alexander.the.Great.jpg]

Alexander The Great
Alexander was tutored by Aristotle until the age of 16. By the age of thirty, he had created one of the largest empires of the ancient world, stretching from the Ionian Sea to the Himalayas. He was undefeated in battle and is considered one of history's most successful commanders.


[Image: maozedong.jpg]

Mao Zedong
Mao rose to power by commanding the Long March, forming a Second United Front with Nationalists (Kuomingtang) during the Second Sino-Japanese War to repel a Japanese invasion, and leading the Communist Party of China (CPC) to victory against Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang (KMT) in the Chinese Civil War.


[Image: darius.jpg]

Darius The Great
Third king of the Achaemenid Empire. He held the empire at its peak, when it included much of West Asia, the Caucasus, Central Asia, parts of the Balkans (Bulgaria-Romania-Panonia), portions of north and northeast Africa including Egypt (Mudrâya), eastern Libya, coastal Sudan, Eritrea), as well as most of Pakistan, the Aegean Islands and northern Greece/Thrace-Macedonia. Darius ascended the throne by overthrowing the alleged magus usurper of Bardiya with the assistance of six other Persian noble families; Darius was crowned the following morning. The new king met with rebellions throughout his kingdom and quelled them each time.

Xerxes I of Persia




[Image: 220px-Abraham_Lincoln_November_1863.jpg]

Abraham Lincoln
He successfully led his country through a great constitutional, military and moral crisis – the American Civil War – preserving the Union, while ending slavery, and promoting economic and financial modernization.


[Image: 220px-FDR_in_1933.jpg]

Franklin Delano Roosevelt
FDR was the 32nd President of the United States (1933–1945) and a central figure in world events during the mid-20th century, leading the United States during a time of worldwide economic crisis and world war. The only American president elected to more than two terms, he facilitated a durable coalition that realigned American politics for decades.


More, too numerous to mention.

A respectable dictator must not have facial hair that resemble the consequence of a runny nose, nor wear uniform the color of shit stain.
