Notable People
This planet has given us some marvellous people who lived not only for them selves but also for others. Can we imagine where we are today? What we use and how our daily activities have been changed because of some notable people? For example can we imagine the p-resent world without an aeroplane, an electricity, cars machines and communication equipments? Can we also imagine how social changes and attitudes of most of us have been improved with the help and understanding of some humanists? Of course all notable people may not be acceptable or appreciated by most of us. But directly or indirectly they contribute to positive changes and thinking in society. This is to imply that there are for sure things that we can learn and use for the benefit of mankind and our environment. We in Iwooket think that there are so many thousands of notable people on our planet and we have included very few of them. We will try to add more notable people from around the world. If you really think that we need to ad someone in this list please do not hesitate to contact us. The only thing you may need is some information with facts/evidence. Enjoy it. Abrham Lincoln

Haile Selassie I was Ethiopia's 225th and last emperor, serving from 1930 until his overthrow by the Marxist dictator Mengistu Haile Mariam in 1974. The longtime ruler traced his line back to Menelik I, who was credited with being the child of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Reports initially circulated claiming that he had died of natural causes, but later evidence revealed that he had probably been strangled to death on the orders of the new government.

Lincoln was the sixteenth President of the United States who led the country to
victory during the American Civil War and contributed profoundly towards ending
the widespread slavery in America. 
Ariel Sharon is
the former Prime Minister of Israel and a military leader. He is ranked among
the most powerful leaders in the history of Israel, who succeeded in removing
the Israeli soldiers from Gaza thus ending the long time tension between the
two countries. He abandoned in the wake of the impeachments of war crimes
following the Sabra and Shatila Massacre. He was the first Prime Minister who
did not belong to either of the two political parties 'Labor' or 'Likud' that
were dominating the Israeli politics for years. After falling out with his
party members, Sharon founded and led a party 'Kadima' which is now a majority
and the senior coalition partner in the Israeli Government. However, health
problems have kept him out of politics in recent years particularly after he
went into comma in 2006. 
Joseph Stalin
was one of the greatest leaders of the former Soviet Union and General
Secretary of the Communist party of the Soviet Union serving from 1922 until
his death in 1953. While in power, Joseph crushed his contemporary prominent
party leaders and opponents he gained popularity among the low-working class
people for his socialist-economic policies. He introduced the concept of
"Five-Year-Plan" in Soviet Union seeking a rapid industrialization
and economic collectivization. Under his leadership, the country joined the
ally forces against the Nazi Germany and played a decisive role that resulted
in the defeat of Germany and a huge death toll in the Soviet Union. 
Margaret Thatcher was the first
female prime minister of England, elected in 1979. She led England out of a
recession, led a war in defense of the British Falkland Islands, and confronted
unions and the influence of the then-Soviet Union, which earned her the
nickname of "Iron Lady." Her stance on the European Union led to her
eventual lack of party support and her resignation as prime minister in 1990.
