Somebody asked me the other day who I thought was the most influential world leader is. I really had to think about it. In terms of current foreign policy, I would say Obama, strictly because he's working to unify the superpowers and has really embraced the Asian markets--who I feel are the actual superpowers. Sorry USA.
But I would say that historically, I think it would be Queen Victoria or maybe Henry VIII. Because they ruled so many territories in their day it was ridiculous. When you think about the stuff that was under English rule (India, Australia, various strategically placed island nations) it's pretty inspiring.
