WHO I AM ?
I AM MYEONGSEONG, THE LAST QUEEN OF KOREA
Born under the name of Min on October 19, 1851, the daughter of Min Ch'irok, a government official, I was made the royal consort in 1866 at the urging of Lady Min, consort of Hungsn Taewngun and mother of King Kojong. I became the first official wife of King Gojong.
My resentment and hatred was soon directed mostly at Taewongun, who exercised governmental powers as the regent. I concentrated on having members of the Min family appointed to key financial, personnel, and military positions of the Korean government to oppose the rule of the regent. As the many political blunders of the regent Taewngun became evident, I helped King Kojong inaugurate his personal rule. Followers of Taewngun were summarily removed from power positions
The Japanese considered me as an obstacle against its overseas expansion. Efforts to remove me from the political arena, orchestrated through failed rebellions prompted by my father-in-law Heungseon Daewongun (an influential regent working with the Japanese), compelled me to take a harsher stand against Japanese influence.
After Japan's victory in the First Sino-Japanese War, I advocated stronger ties between Korea and Russia in an attempt to block Japanese influence in Korea. Miura Goro, the Japanese Minister to Korea backed the faction headed by my father-in-law Daewongun, whom he considered to be more sympathetic to Japanese interests.
At about 5:30 of October 8, 1895, a group of Japanese military and people in Japanese attires infiltrated the Gyeongbok Palace with little difficulty because the Palace was under Japanese protection. They killed the commander of a guard unit, and his men, who blocked the entrance to the palace.
King Kojong bitterly protested the Japanese intrusion into his private quarters but he was pushed down by the Japanese. Another group of the assassins rushed to my sleeping area. I was sexually molested then killed. The assassins wrapped me in a blanket then burned my body in a nearby bush.

WHO I AM ?
I AM DIPA NUSANTARA AIDIT (1923-1965), LEADER OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDONESIA (PKI)
Im am Dipa Nusantara Aidit, born under the name of Ahmad Aidit on July 1923 on Bangka Island. I was nicknamed Bang Amat by his little brothers,
I was raised on Dutch colonial education, later coming into contact with Marxist political theory through the Indies Social Democratic Association, later the Communist Party of Indonesia. In 1945, I served as one of the brief, bloody war for independance
Though a Marxist and a member of Comintern, I submitted to Indonesian president Sukarno's Marhaenism policy and allow the party to grow without any overt intentions towards power. In return for my support of Sukarno, I rose to the position of Secretary-General of the PKI in 1951
Under my leadership, the PKI became the 3rd largest Communist party in the world, behind those of the Soviet Union and China. I set up a number of mass organizations including the Pemuda Rakyat for the youth, and Gerwani a women's league
During the 1955 general election campaign, the PKI drew a large following. In the next decade, it became a leftist rival to conservative elements among the Muslim political parties and the Army. In 1963, the PKI began a unilateral action of land reforms in which villagers seized land belonging to upper classes By 1965, the PKI had become the largest political party in Indonesia with an estimated 20 million members, and I became bolder in overtures towards power
After the attempted 30 September 1965 coup (Gestapu) later officially blamed on the PKI, I fled to Yogyakarta, where he was arrested and shot on 22 November by pro-government forces led by General Suharto

WHO I AM ?
I AM COMMANDER AHMAD SHAH MASSOUD, AFGHAN LION OF PANJSHIR (1953-2001)
Here are the explanations given by the winners
I am Ahmad Shah Massoud, born September 2nd 1953 in Jangalak, Panjshir Valley, Afghanistan.
A well educated multi-lingual man, particulary in French. I was a Kabul University engineering student turned military Tajik leader who played a leading role in driving the Soviet army out of Afghanistan, earning the nickname of "Lion of Panjshir". I was the most pro-Western and popular of the anti-Soviet resistance leaders
I became Defense Minister of Afghanistan in 1992 under President Burhanuddin Rabbani. Following the collapse of Rabbani's government and the rise of the Taliban regime, with my men, I took refuge in the northern mountains where we continue our lonely struggle against the Taliban and their extreme version of Islam. I became the military leader of the United Islamic Front for the Salvation of Afghanistan
In April 2001 I addressed the European Parliament and warned that the Taliban and Al-Qaeda were planning a major terrorist attack against the West. In the U.S, Afghanistan was long forgotten and the warning went unheeded
On September 9, 2001 I was assassinated by an alleged al-Qaeda human bomb with explosives worn in a belt. The assassin was posing as a cameraman conducting an interview with him, allegedly with the complicity of Abdul Rasul Sayyaf
The following year, I was named "National Hero" by the order of Afghanistan's President Hamid Karzai. Many Afghans affectionately call me "Amer Sahib e Shaheed" translating to " (Our) Martyred Commander." September 9th, the date of my death is observed as a national holiday, and known as Massoud Day in Afghanistan

I AM QUEEN SIRIKIT OF THAILAND
I came into this world on August 12th 1932, of noble parentage, and was named Mom Rajawongse Sirikit which means "Glory and Splendor of the Kittiyakara Family". This name was given to the baby girl by my relative H.M. King Prajadipok (Rama VII)
My father was a member of the Thai Diplomatic Corps, and was based at the Embassy in Washington D.C., so I lived with my grandparents in Bangkok, until such time my father came back. After I attended Rajini School, and, later, the St Francis Xavier Convent School until I was 13 years of age, in 1948, I followed my parents to Paris where her father was the Ambassador to the Republic of France
I met the young King Bhumibol Adulyadej when he was completing his studies Lausanne, Switzerland, and used to visit Paris. We became friends then more closed. The friendship blossomed into a committed, serious, love affair
Our engagement was officially announced on July 19, 1949. A wedding date was set for April 28, 1950. We were married with all the pomp and ceremony of Thai Royal Tradition. Few days later, on May 5, is was the Coronation of His Majesty King Bhumibol of Thailand and, on the same day, I was honored and elevated to be Her Majesty Queen Sirikit of Thailand
Since that day in 1950, I have been devoted to my husband The King and I have, likewise, given devoted service to the People of Thailand. I have lovingly perfomed my Royal responsibilities or duties and has been an inspiration to the People of the Kingdom

WHO I AM ?
I AM YUAN SHI KAI, PRESIDENT OF CHINA (1912 –1916)
Here are the explanations given by Choco
I was born on September 16, 1859, Xiangcheng, Henan province, China
Chinese army leader, I began my military career serving in Korea in the 1880s. In 1885 I was made Chinese commissioner at Seoul. My promotion of China's interests contributed to the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War (1894 – 1895) The war destroyed China's navy and army, and the task of training a new army fell to me.
When my division was the only one to survive the Boxer Rebellion (1900), my political stature increased. I played a decisive part in China's modernization and defense programs and enjoyed the support of the empress dowager Cixi.
On her death I was dismissed, only to be called back following the overthrow of the Qing dynasty in 1911 – 1912, when, in March, I became the first president of the new republic; Sun Yat-sen had previously served as the provisional president. Impatient with the new National Assembly, I ordered the assassination of Song Jiaoren, leader of the Nationalist Party in 1913.
In January 1915, the Japanese presented their infamous Twenty One Demands. If they had all been granted, China would have been transformed into a Japanese protectorate. Therefore, I submitted to all but the most radical of them.
I quelled a subsequent revolt, but my efforts to found my own dynasty (1915 – 1916) failed.
I have not been well treated by either foreign or Chinese historians, although foreign historians were not as vituperative as the Chinese. I am usually portrayed as an unscrupulous political operator, whose ethics were governed by personal ambition and political expediency.
I died on June 6, 1916, before to be proclaimed emperor
