The individuals or group that figured out the wheel
Norman Borlaug
Zorbulon, and you’ve likely never known it.
Jesus, Mahatma Gandhi, and The Buddha all had profound impacts on the way that humans relate to each other, and the world around them. Each promoted non-violence and/or pacifism in a world ruled by ruthlessness and cruelty. I don't think we would be anywhere close to where we are now with human rights without their contributions to human understanding of empathy.
