Description
Meet history's most savage and powerful rulers
Who put the 1.6 million inhabitants of a rebellious city to the sword? Who spent a third of his nation's annual budget on his coronation? Who, after a battle, feasted among the bodies of his victims? Who kept human remains in his deep freeze? And who ordered more executions than any other single human being ever?
Learn how these savage men gained and held on to absolute power, and about the insane brutality and horrific cruelty they used to govern. Millions died at their hands; the money of entire countries was at their disposal; and more often than not, the rest of the world stood by and watched as they ran whole nations into the ground to feed their whims.
