You assumed wrong, the correct answer is that chick from Tangled. Or maybe one of the two chicks from Frozen, but there's so much singing in the movie that it's hard to truly judge their historical impact.

I considered this one too.

Thatcher was significant, but I don't think she had as much of an affect on humanity as did Joan or Marie Curie.

Honorable mention to Annie Taylor, the mother of all daredevil badasses. She was 61 when she did that. Holy shite.

You're thinking with your dick, but hey, if we can't trust our best friend's judgment, just who can we trust? Guilty here.

Sounds legit...

Mother Teresa

Eleanor Roosevelt

Florence Nightingale

Marie Currie

I submit two Catherines for consideration:

1. St. Catherine of Siena. Literary giant and inspiration for the Pope returning the Papacy to Rome. Hugely brilliant and influential during an interesting time in European history.

2. Catherine the Great of Russia. She was both enlightened and tyrannical and helped move Russia into modernization and political dynamism. She greatly changed the course of European history by establishing Russia as an international player.

She didn't do shite in the movie or in history

She was a great woman.
