My specialization in history is American and European history, but I have also had a few courses dealing with Asia, and the Middle East.

I have had classes dealing with US History, European History, the History of Mexico, History and Politics of Asia, and the War in Vietnam.

Subject: History

Question
Since the beginning of history, which one man has been responsible for more deaths than anyone?

Answer
^.^

Since there weren't that many people on the planet until about the 19th century onward, even though the scope of your question is huge, the area from which the correct answer can come from is small.

The top three, I would think would be:

1: Josef Stalin (about 30 mil)
2: Adolf Hitler (11 mill to 27 mill depending on what you blame him for)
3: Pol Pot (unknown, but not 10 mill)

I hope this helps,

John B.
