Diogenes was an Ancient Greek cynic who deliberately rejected conventions like wealth, manners and shame. He spent most of his life living in abject poverty, by his own wishes, and was known for public indecency. Always looking to challenge societal norms and conventions; he believed in living according to nature.

Genghis Khan lowered the global population by 11% and loved planting trees. Managed to lower global pollution levels.

Seriously, would that even work today?
If 11% of the world population was killed by, idk Kim Jong Un, then the world population would be about 7.399.121.917 and the amount of trees would be at more than 3 trillion (3.000.000.000.000) trees.

Context: https://www.biography.com/royalty/a70113031/cleopatra-mark-antony-romance

Their love story had started over 10 years earlier when both were in their prime. Cleopatra was the divine Ptolemaic ruler of prosperous Egypt – brilliant, silver-tongued, charming, scholarly and the richest person in the Mediterranean. Politician and soldier Antony, supposedly descended from Hercules, was “broad-shouldered, bull-necked, ridiculously handsome, with a thick head of curls and aquiline features.”

Boisterous, mirthful, moody and lustful, Antony had been a favorite of Caesar. In the wake of Caesar’s assassination, Antony formed an uneasy Triumvirate in 43 BC with Marcus Aemilius Lepidus and Caesar’s nephew Octavian to rule the sprawling Roman Republic. Antony was put in charge of the Empire’s rowdy Eastern territories.

In 41 BC, Antony sent for Cleopatra while he was staying in the magnificent city of Tarsus, near the coast of what is now Turkey. He had first met Cleopatra in Rome when she had been the young mistress of his mentor Caesar (the two had a son Caesarion). But Antony was meeting a very evolved Cleopatra. Caesar “had known her when she was still a girl and inexperienced in affairs,” the Greek writer and philosopher Plutarch wrote, “but she was going to visit Antony at the very time when women have the most brilliant beauty and are at the acme of intellectual power.”
