Powerful women have shaped our world. Women like Mary [mother of Jesus], Lilith [Adam's first wife], Semiramis [who started the Easter celebration], Mother Shipton [who predicted the end of the world], Cleopatra VII [who stole the heart of Ceasar], Poppaea [who changed Nero's life]. On and on we must go as we find out how women around the world made our world what it is today.
