What was your countrys most based leader in history?

...or Manuel Estrada Cabrera. Not actually soooo good but definitely some of the best we've had. They do get their fair share of shit because of the tyrannical dictator meme

Napoleon might not have been good at things that weren't war and made dumb mistakes but he's the best we had

Hail to the Emperor

Trajan

Borat

This. You can tell a lot about a man by his enemies, and the most annoying faggots on the internet despise him. He's the architect of the American empire and the captain of the ship through trying economic times and the largest war in history. Not even close.

Augustus.

You better not be talking about William Lyon "I call my dead mother from a ouija board because she makes better political decisions than me" Mackenzie King

>this triggers the Irishman

Dusan the Mighty

We really do have the pick of the litter don't we. Probably Wellington or King George III

He tried.

Goerge washington can compete.

USA

McKinley
Teddy Roosevelt
George Washington

I do believe he would turn Russia into some kind of effective Prussian-style constitutional monarchy if not for these fucking socialists.

Barek Obamer

Wellington was a fucking hack, only won because of the Prussians

Best post-CW president, you literally could not create a more based man if you tried. That he managed to be so based despite coming from the worst part of the country is just amazing.

>"My forebears were Confederates ... but my very stomach turned over when I had learned that Negro soldiers, just back from overseas, were being dumped out of Army trucks in Mississippi and beaten."

>Greenland
>Danish flag

wew lad

Truman was weak against Russia and is responsible for the fact that Stalin got the bomb.

Cold War entirely his fault.

>Texas
>American flag
Same shit. Greenland is Danish territory.

No others need apply

This is bait, right?

texas is a state in the US

greenland is not the same sort of entity

...

a pity about his nation

Britain was never more powerful and exciting than when it was challenging the established order as a republic

Willy Brandt

I know theodor is the reddit answer but I'd say he's more "based"
FDR was cool, so was Washington

>triggers /pol/ and lefty/pol/
lefties and righties both like Turman wtf

Wikipedia historians would name Dom Pedro II, because he had the charm of being a monarch and was featured in some video game, but the real answer is Getúlio Vargas. He build modern Brazil as an industrialized country with a strong central government. Every failure that came afterwards came as a result of politicians abandoning his legacy and trying to turn us again to a plantation economy (like we were under the Empire).

But, user, that's not how you spell "Abe"

Alfred the Great? Penda, Offa, Emperor Coenwulf? The Black Prince? James I was remarkably competent, if I remember correctly.

Wait, fuck, is this guy in 100 Years of Solitude? I swear I've seen the name before.

Sadly, many of your great leaders were French or German

Makes you think.

I'm not British, but if I was, I would name Clement Attlee.

Teddy Roosevelt, I guess?

"Vargas" is a steretypical Latin American surname, but no, as a Brazilian President, he couldn't be featured as a character in a novel about a fictional Colombian city.

he's up there, no doubt

Justin
Weedman
Trudeau

...

>Republic
>Pic related

He was a psychotic puritanical bastard who completely betrayed the ideals of the cause that he fought for, and turned England in to his own personal dictatorship.

Can you really call a society that bans pretty much all forms of entertainment and art "exciting".

Why was the monarchy immediately reestablished after he died, if he was such a great leader?

[note that I am not Irish]

>"""ended""" WW2

Wish it didn't come at the expense of the Byzantine empire desu senpai.

Benjamin Disraeli.

Isn't he, at least in part, responsible for the Napoleonic Code, and the economic reforms that finally fixed the entire reason the Revolution was started in the first place?

God damn, look at Byzantine. It's so small and... flaccid.

No president will ever have the balls to call out the Military Industrial Complex.

Tito?...Maybe Emperor Dushan?...Maybe Karadjoredjevic dynasty?...Obrenovic dynasty?

Général Charles de Gaulle.

Cold war saw a few million deaths but was definitly not the worst possible outcome.

Jinnah.

Kek

Eleftherios Venizelos

based Whitlam

Mindaugas

is Weedman really his middle name?

The catholic kings.

I think Lincoln still beats him out.

The Civil War is the only time in history when the US itself has been legitimately threatened.

Not the hero we deserve

Tony Abbott

>le nationalise everything man
Maybe if you're 12 and have never picked up an econ textbook in your life

Jackson*

the cockroaches do not deserve this guy

yes

Haakon Haakonson

>causes a constitutional crisis over fucking nothing and gets BRITISH'D by the attorney general
No. Maybe you misspelled and meant to put Menzies?

"I am a country member"
"I remember"

kek

france

In no particular order

Charlemagne (if you do consider him French), Philippe le Bel, Louis XIV, Napoleon, de Gaulle

If he didn't bend over backwards for the elites I would unironically agree.

Louis Bonaparte.
Napoleon made him a puppet king, but he managed to win the hearts of his subjects by taking on their language and culture.
Also called "The bunny of Holland" (De Konijn Van Holland) because he famously mispronounced the Dutch word for king (koning).

His laws were pretty good for medieval ones.
However i'd say that Milan Obrenovic and/or Petar Karadjordjevic were far more interesting and achieved more with what little they had, which is a bigger achievement. However both of their sons were autistic faggots who can go fuck themselves and deserved what they got.

I mean Milan achieved internationally recognized independence, and after a few fuck ups retired, took half the treasury and spent it on black jack and hookers.

We should have destroyed the Russians while we had the chance. A drive into Russia would have knocked them out and we could have placed all of Europe under our dominion, dismantling the old empires and imposing a United States of Europe which we would never again have to worry about being drawn into for another of their damn world conflicts. Now the sham that is the EU is creating nationalist unrest across the European continent and a resurgent Russia is meddling in our affairs and challenging us once again, with many sympathizers creating another scare, but reactionary this time instead of red.

Don't make me get my gun.
Also, not saying based Jelacic is a sin to your country.

The first four were Anglo-Saxon, James was Scottish, and the Black Prince was born in England and grew up there. People who insist that England was ruled by foreigners for almost all of it's history don't understand how nationality works.

only during this fucker's rule did we actually resemble a functional nation, a pretty decent one at that.

before his rule we were just poor banana states, and after his death.. well, look for yourself

That's not Tito, dummy. THIS is Tito.

I don't know which one to shoot!

Posts like these are why americans are considered stupid.

Russophile detected.

No, it really is statistically impossible. You could not have won that war.

I'm Australian and I'm neutral about this, you statistically could NOT have won that war.

Indira gandhi

Literally perfect!

I don't know for Canada so...

> statistically impossible
>I'm Australian and I'm neutral about this, you statistically could NOT have won that war.

HAHAHA. wew fucking hoo, lad. You really think that it was statistically impossible? I don't think you know the first thing about statistics, considering that the Red Army by the time of the second world war's end had loses nearing 10 million, were starting to use women because of loss of manpower, were overextended by the time they reached berlin and were low on supplies and their supply lines were not effectively secured for a sudden American push against them. The nations occupied by the soviets were not particularly overjoyed to be in Soviet hands either. Also take into account air superiority for long and short range bombings and naval superiority being able to secure troop landing in the mediterranean, black, baltic sea. The end of lend -lease would would also drastically affect the soviet supply.

Step aside cucks, nobody can compete with this man

Washington and Eisenhower were both way up there in my opinion

Pearson

truly GOAT head of state

Mackenzie King,
only PM smart enough to use necromancy.

americans can't be that retarded
