Emperor Shenzong – who ruled during the China’s Song Dynasty which produced approximately 30% of the world’s output, definitely puts him in the top 3 spot.
August Ceasar – who once personally owned the entire empire of Egypt and was responsible for a sizable portion of the world’s economic output, had an estimated worth that would amount to $4.6 trillion today.
