5. Adolf Hitler
Wondering why he made the list “Top 10 Smartest People in History”?
Adolf Hitler alone is considered responsible for millions of deaths in the history of mankind. Putting down the basis of Nazism, he fooled the world into believing that what he is doing was right and this is precisely where the genius of this man lies. His famous quote, “I didn’t kill all the Jews so that people would know why I was killing them”, has intrigued many people over the years. Legend has it that he was the illegitimate son of a Jewish father who abandoned his mother and him.
A Military man he was too, at which he cleverly used the resources and the German Army as well as Police Forces of that era to shield him from opposing forces only to eventually turn Germany into a land at which would now primarily be owned, ruled, governed and taken control of by him and his Nazi Manifesto. Most definitely is one of the greatest and smartest people to have existed until being topped by Osama Bin Laden a few decades later who had similar yet more detrimental motives.
