    great doesn't have to mean this person was a nice guy. One can do terrible things and still be "great".

    Some of the people that come to mind are:

    Julius Ceasar
    Hannibal
    Napoleon
    Genghis Khan
    Atilla
    Alexander
    David


    Plenty of others, tell us who you think and why.

    it is, but its hard to imagine an answer for the question. Those Persian dynasties where some of the greatest.
