Wu Zetian was the first and only woman emperor of China. She ruled the Tang Dynasty from 665 to 705 CE. At age 14 she became King Taizong’s concubine and later became his secretary in state affairs. Wu Zetian had a lot of ranks, but the highest one was huanghou which means ¨empress consort¨. While she was empress she reformed the government, decreased public spending, and lowered taxes on local peasants. When Wu Zetian began to rule the current religion of China was Confucianism, but this religion did not allow women to rule. So, Wu Zetian as empress changed the religion of China to Buddhism. Wu Zetian’s greatest accomplishment was to become an empress and rule the Tang Dynasty for 40 years!

Roberta Cowell was a pilot and race car driver in the 1930s, known for making a significant impact on the world of motorsports. Her most notable achievement came in 1939 when she won the Antwerp Grand Prix. During World War II, she enlisted in the Royal Air Force, further demonstrating her determination and resilience.

What stands out most about Roberta is how she defied the odds and overcame the doubts of others. One of her greatest feats was dressing up as a mechanic to pursue her dreams, showing her commitment to breaking barriers. What I admire most about her is her unwavering perseverance—despite facing skepticism and opposition, she never gave up and continued to prove people wrong.

Alice Lee was a mathematician who was the first woman to obtain a bachelor's degree in science at Bedford College for Women and the first to become a science doctor at the University of London in 1901. She developed a mathematical formula to determine the skull capacity of living individuals. However, when the social scientist E B Hobson and anatomist Sir William Turner found out about it -(He had been one of the anatomists whose head had been measured and he had one of the smaller skulls)-He should have been pleased with Lee's conclusion that skull size did not correlate with intellectual ability but instead he seemed annoyed. Lamor had said that the thesis must be mostly Pearson's work and not Lee's, although Pearson stated clearly that it was not. Although this was a setback, this did not stop Alice Lee, and in 1901, she published an article based on her studies.

Zaha Hadid was a very skilled and creative architect. She was born in Baghdad, but moved to London in 1972 to attend the Architectural Association. In 1979, she founded Zaha Hadid Architects. Each of Zaha's projects took over thirty years of exploration and research in the interrelated fields of urbanism, architecture and design. Many of her paintings were digital. For example, she created virtual reality paintings. Zaha also designed furniture, jewelry, footwear, bags, interior spaces such as restaurants, and stage sets. Without a doubt, Zaha was a very talented and creative person. What I admire most about her is creativity.

The name of the person I chose is Zheng Yi Sao.

She made her biggest impact in 1807.

She fits in the category History/Natural History

Interesting facts I learned by reading about her:

1) She took the name Zheng Yi Sao after marrying her husband.

2) She had an adopted son named Zhang Bao.

3) She became the owner of a gambling house when she surrendered and gave up being a pirate.

I feel her greatest achievement was having 24 ships and 1,433 pirates under her personal command.

I admire that she lived a peaceful life after her life of being a pirate.

One additional fact a discovered from research and found interesting is that she married her adopted son after his father died.

Bessie Coleman made history when she became the first African American woman to earn a pilot's license on June 15, 1921. She traveled all the way to France to earn it, as it proved impossible to do so in the United Sates due to intense segregation at the time. Bessie Coleman was a barnstorming pilot, which meant she would preform figure eights and loops in the air in front of crowds! People could even walk onto the wings of her plane while it was in flight! Due to her bravery to not only preform such daring stunts, but also to pursue her dreams, Bessie Coleman earned the nicknames "Queen Bess" and "Brave Bessie." She tragically died in an airplane crash on April 30, 1926, but her legacy still lives on. Bessie Coleman continues to inspire flight students.

Zheng Yi Sao was a pirate who united leaders. 

# data[].attributes.body
Zheng came from very humble beginnings. One day, her husband fell overboard and died so she quickly took over operations. Once Zheng became the leader, she built a force of around 600 ships and up to 40,000 men. I feel her greatest achievement was how she was able to take so much money, command so many people, and leave a name for herself all these years later by being a pirate.
