Angela Merkel, Chancellor  of Germany<img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iTGXYFIkfkA/TO0cqTqbxfI/AAAAAAAAdp0/PMYgSvNrbQg/s1600/10+Angela-Merkel.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The most influential female politician in the world, Merkel earned a  doctorate in physics in East Germany before turning her eye to politics.  She won a seat in the Bundestag during the first post-reunification  general election, in December 1990, and Chancellor Helmut Kohl appointed  her as a Cabinet minister just one year later. Childless and twice  married, the chairwoman of the Christian Democratic Union often comes  off as reserved and self-effacing. But as she told TIME in a 2010  interview, she has plenty of confidence: “You could certainly say that  I’ve never underestimated myself. There’s nothing wrong with being  ambitious.”</blockquote>
