Nobody has said Indira Ghandi or Mother Theresa yet. Anybody care to choose one as the most influential and argue the case?

How about the Statue of Liberty?

Agrippina. I suppose Margaret d'Anjou could count as a royal, but I don't think Agrippina does. Dolley Madison definitely wasn't a royal. Eleanor Roosevelt was another very influential woman.

I'm embarrassed that anyone could even begin to include Jackie Kennedy in such a list. Except for fashion and glamor, she was one of the most nothing First Ladies in US history. I could name twenty-five who were more significant, albeit less photogenic.

Also, we never knew their real names, but the Pythiai of Delphi had a lot of impact on history.

Dona Marina was a vital aid in Cortes's conquest of the Mexica, arguably the most important event in the history of the hemisphere.

The Romans of her time didn't really have "royals" but Agrippina (the Elder) was certainly of exalted and imperial family, being the grand daughter of Augustus. And her daughter Agrippina the Younger was married to the emperor Claudius and mother of Nero. So she was certainly imperial.
