King Faisal I of Iraq
King Faisal I of Iraq (1885-1933) was the first king of modern Iraq, having ascended to the throne in 1921 after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. A prominent figure in the establishment of a national identity for Iraq, Faisal aimed to unify the diverse ethnic and religious groups within the country under the banner of 'the Iraqi nation.' His reign marked significant socio-political changes, including the promotion of women's education, infrastructure development, and the creation of a modern state. Despite his progressive vision, his sudden death in 1933 left a power vacuum that led to political instability in Iraq.
Born on Sep 20, 1883 (141 years old)
