Madeleine Albright
Moving into the political theatre, the controversial politician Madeleine Albright passed away this year at the age of 84. Originally born in what was then Czechoslovakia, she would make her way to the United States of America where she would pursue her political career, climbing the ladder all the way to Secretary of State.
A dark shadow surrounded her career and she would be accused of many terrible things, such as her push for sanctions on Iraq which led to the deaths of thousands of innocent people. Included in this are her ruthless bombing campaign against Serbia and her allegations of war profiteering and corruption after the conflict was over.
