Spartacus, although that's not his real name. I've read that it's Spártakos, but anyway. He was a Thracian soldier that was captured by Rome and sold into slavery to Lentulus Batiatus, who ran a place to train Gladiators for the entertainment of the people. He led an uprising with about 70 slaves there and escaped. From there he freed other slaves of the Roman people and gathered an army of 10,000 people to take on Rome. This was the 'Third Servile War'. Spartacus proved to be an excellent tactician, and won several battles. While he didn't win the war, he almost did. They lost the deciding battle, but I still think it's inspiring. A slave led an uprising with nothing, but eventually inspired 10,000 people to fight for freedom against the Roman's and almost won. This was when Rome was at its peak. I think that's amazing, and impressive. I know it's not simple, but I think it's inspiring. If he can do that, coming from nothing, with no resources to start, we too can also fight for what we want, or what we need.

Personally, I really strive in history, I'm a teen, and most other kids my age think it's boring, but I guess I'm just naturally drawn to it. I really admire Howard Carter, I don't care how good of a guy he was, I also think it may have been luck and not talent, but it's just amazing. It is so incredibly astounding there was a whole other world living beneath us. I can't even explain. It's just FABULOUS. I love the ancient times ALMOST as I love vintage Hollywood. *sigh* Heaven.🥰 Have good day!

Amelia Earhart because she always went for what she wanted. She lived her life as it suited her - not society's expectations. She tried her hand at many careers: nursing, social work, author, college advisor, designer, etc.

Amelia was brave, exciting, and a role model. Her story is fascinating. Her words are still impactful.

“Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace, the soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things.”

“…now, and then, women should do for themselves what men have already done—occasionally what men have not done—thereby establishing themselves as persons, and perhaps encouraging other women toward greater independence of thought and action. Some such consideration was a contributing reason for my wanting to do what I so much wanted to do.”

One person in history? Hard to say really. There are too many interesting ones. How about the first person who started talking. The inventor(s) of language. Now that was an innovation

President Theodore Roosevelt was quite a man. He used to wrestle (physically) foreign dignitaries in the White House. But when presented with a young bear on a game hunt, he refused to shoot. That's where the "Teddy Bear" came from.

I don't believe in idolizing people but I do look up to some people as inspirations on who I want to be.
Floor Jansen.
She's an operatic/metal powerhouse, a 3rd vocalist in the band Nightwish.
I know people compare her to Annette and Tarja, who were the previous vocalists, and even compared to Ariana Grande. She doesn't deserve this, though. Floor is such a professional and so gracious. She's done duets with Tarja and has no ill-thoughts towards any fellow singers, that I know of.
During the pandemic Floor made vocal lesson videos, for free, on Youtube.

From musical history, my “guitar hero” is Jerry Garcia.
A Grateful Dead concert features songs with amazing 3+ minute long guitar solos, and songs stretching to 10-20 minutes in length.
There are two drummers, keyboards, bass guitar, and a rhythm guitar player laying down a perfectly good song, and then Jerry plays an amazing, meandering lead guitar on the top of it.
Imagine a Michelangelo sculpture, and then letting Monet or Cezanne use it as a painting canvas. I think that’s what Jerry Garcia’s guitar sounds like playing over a Grateful Dead song. Nothing else like it
