Catherine. From being a rich woman in Germany, moving to Russia. Suddenly gets the oppertunity to marry the leader. When he dies she takes power and does glorious things for Russia as well as terrible things.
@jasonaw2 Prussians always had German herritage, just take a look at Chancellor Otto Van Bismark, he was Prussian, yet he lead an assault on other Western countries just to unify Germany.
@Guillidan yes, well Prussia was nothing but German, the lower classes had almost always spoke german, and the upper classes began after the napoleonic wars. Only Posen, and the very tip of Selisia had any polish culture or roots. Poland got all of prussia except brandenburg and east prussia after ww1, just because modern Poland owns it, doesnt mean it had conenctions with Poland...bottom line is Poland got way to much more than just its cores. Not like you dont know this :P
My first choice ;).

Why does everyone hate her? She modernized Russia. If it wasn't for her, history would be extremely different.

@ByouDanseiKamiEnSai Oddly enough Catherine is Austrian born and became queen because she married into the Russian royal line.

You're right) Catherine had small mouth, thin lips & large sharp chin.
