CARL BENZ APPLIED for a patent for his “vehicle powered by a gas engine” back in 1886, and is credited with creating the first automobile. In the 131 years since then, the motor industry has produced billions of machines – it is estimated that more than 1 billion passenger cars travel the roads of the world today – in thousands of different models. Some of those models, however, have been more successful than others. Let’s take a look at the top five best selling cars of all time: 5. Volkswagen Passat 1973-present, 23 million sold Passat has been able to record the most selling model for Volkswagen, with over 23 million units so worldwide. It was launched in 1973; however it wasn’t until Ferdinand Piech, who moved from Audi to VW in 1993, got his hands on the fourth-gen Passat that sales begin to soar. This version of the Passat was lavishly engineered and had Audi underpinnings and refinement (it was based on the A4). As a result Volkswagen was seen as being more ‘upmarket’ and desirable, which helped drive sales of the car – as too did its pretty decent price. 4. Honda Civic 1972-present, 24 million sold Honda was actually considering pulling out of car production altogether to concentrate on its more popular motorcycle manufacturing but then, in 1972, the Civic launched and was such a hit that Honda changed its mind. The car has been in production ever since and entered its tenth generation in 2016. Fun fact: the Civic has been Canada’s best-selling car for 19 straight years, 1997-2016. 3. Volkswagen Golf 1974-present, 33 million sold The Golf arrived on European roads in 1974 and American highways in 1975, although it was badged the Rabbit there. Today, over 33-million units have been sold. This works out at 2,120 Golfs being produced and sold every day for four decades. The Golf is so popular because it is really good to drive, offers good value for money and has proven to be very reliable over the decades. 2. Ford F-Series 1948-present, 40 million sold The Ford F-Series of trucks is unstoppable! The F-Series has been the best selling truck in America for 40 consecutive years and America’s best selling vehicle overall for the past 35 years. (Truck yeah!). It was first introduced in 1948 and has gone on to sell 40 million units. In the 21st century, Ford sells a pickup for every single minute of the day. The first F-Series pick-up trucks were easy to fix, gained a reputation for being reliable workhorses and quickly became essential farm equipment. 1. Toyota Corolla 1966-present, 44.1 million sold Since the launch of the first-generation Corolla in 1966, more than 44 million Corollas have been sold globally. By 1974 the Corolla was already the best selling car in the world. One of the reasons it sells so well is that it is sold in over 150 countries and regions. In 2015, the Corolla set another record, becoming the first new vehicle ever to sell more than 1.3 million units worldwide in a calendar year. The love of the Corolla doesn't seem to be waning either as it is the best selling car so far this year with 297,471 already sold. Visit us for more Informations |
IbnAbdullah1:Have you heard of adoption? Jesus was the only begotten Son, however, Adoption took place. Read Galatians 4 too. Thanks. |
IbnAbdullah1:Look bro, Jesus is the only begotten son. Pls read john 1 to the end, take your time. |
IbnAbdullah1:I guess John 3:16 was talking of Adam abi? Bro, you don't really understand the bible. You just take verses and quote. I can't begin to open your eyes to Christianity on this forum because your mind is not open to something new. |
IbnAbdullah1:Mathew 3 vs 16-17 that's bible on why we call Him Son of God. With what you have said now, is He less influential to Muhammed? Your quran actually says "He is coming back to defeat the devil, right? ![]() I also noticed you place the quran higher than the bible. Because you just said " quran cleared the misconceptions about Him. So I should take the quran and neglect my own faith? We are comparing both Holy books.. What they both say about about Jesus and Muhammed. Let's see who is more influential. |
IbnAbdullah1:What did the quran say about Jesus? Pls These 6 things Muslim believe about Jesus |
IbnAbdullah1:I don't really understand what you're saying though but the list was by voting. You can take it to the street to see who is more influential. Of every list available online atleast, 70% of them put Jesus ahead, while some put Micheal Jackson ahead. Now, there are more Christains in the world than any other religion. Meaning if not all, atleast 80% of them believes in His teaching and also see Him as the only way to Heaven. To see how influential He is, He said in the bible that " He is the way, the truth and the life". Do you know what that means? Now, let's say for the sake of none Muslims and Christians, if that statement is "Correct" and you believe there's a God, and There's Heaven, then Jesus is the greatest of all. Because you need Him to make it to heaven. In His word, He said " no one can see the Father except through Him". That's according to the bible. Now, let's see what Muhammed says in the quran sir.. To show He is more influential than Jesus.. Thanks. The only thing I always say about Islam is that, if islam is the true way to heaven, then if not all, 90% of Muslims will make heaven. I can't say the same for Christian but it doesn't mean Jesus is less influential. Jesus has more followers generally, bro, that Put Him on the 1 spot. If this was based on just popularity, will even still say the same thing? |
IbnAbdullah1:Jesus!!! What's influence? Again, can you really be popular and not influence people in a way? I even agree more on being influential yet less popular. Jesus is both; influential and popular |
Anything to see my countrymen grow justseyi: |
dominique:Even me lost 30k to a so called foreign based guy, he's even my friend o. Infact na 60k but I no send 60k |

These are the most influential people of all of human history. This means that the individuals on this list have had a significant effect on how regular people live their lives today and have had a large impact on how modern society works. The names on this list include religious figures, scientists and inventors, and some of the most important leaders in world history. What makes an individual worthy of a spot on a list of the most influential people ever? Certainly, some of the greatest minds of all time deserve to be ranked highly. Examples include Leonardo da Vinci, Sir Isaac Newton, and certainly Albert Einstein. Each one of these incredible people used the power of their minds to change the world. Not surprisingly, several names on this list are also among the most famous role models we'd like to meet in person. Can anyone argue that Dangote, Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg aren't among the most influential people? 10. Plato was a philosopher, as well as mathematician, in Classical Greece. He is considered an essential figure in the development of philosophy, especially the Western tradition, and he founded the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. Along with his teacher Socrates and his most famous student, Aristotle, Plato laid the foundations of Western philosophy and science. Alfred North White head once noted: "the safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato." Plato's dialogues have been used to teach a range of subjects, including philosophy, logic, ethics, rhet 9. Alexander the Great Alexander III of Macedon, commonly known as Alexander the Great, was a King of the Ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon and a member of the Argead dynasty. Born in Pella in 356 BC, Alexander succeeded his father, Philip II, to the throne at the age of twenty. He spent most of his ruling years on an unprecedented military campaign through Asia and north-east Africa, until by the age of thirty he had created one of the largest empires of the ancient world, stretching from Greece to Egypt and into Northwest India. He was undefeated in battle and is considered one of history's most successful military commanders. During his youth, Alexander was tutored by the philosopher Aristotle until the age. 8. Charles Darwin Charles Robert Darwin, FRS was an English naturalist and geologist, best known for his contributions to evolutionary theory. He established that all species of life have descended over time from common ancestors, and in a joint publication with Alfred Russel Wallace introduced his scientific theory that this branching pattern of evolution resulted from a process that he called natural selection, in which the struggle for existence has a similar effect to the artificial selection involved in selective breeding. Darwin published his theory of evolution with compelling evidence in his 1859 book On the Origin of Species, overcoming scientific rejection of earlier concepts of transmutation. 7. Galileo Galilei Galileo Galilei, often known mononymously as Galileo, was an Italian physicist, mathematician, engineer, astronomer, and philosopher who played a major role in the scientific revolution during the Renaissance. His achievements include improvements to the telescope and consequent astronomical observations and support for Copernicanism. Galileo has been called the "father of modern observational astronomy", the "father of modern physics", the "father of science", and "the father of modern science". His contributions to observational astronomy include the telescopic confirmation of the phases of Venus, the discovery of the four largest satellites 6. Muhammad Muhammad, full name Abū al-Qāsim Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib ibn Hāshim, from Mecca, unified Arabia into a single religious polity under Islam. Believed by Muslims and Bahá'ís to be a prophet and messenger of God, Muhammad is almost universally considered by Muslims as the last prophet sent by God to mankind. While non-Muslims generally regard Muhammad as the founder of Islam, Muslims consider him to have restored the unaltered original monotheistic faith of Adam, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other prophets in Islam. Born approximately in 570 CE in the Arabian city of Mecca. 5. Aristotle Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and scientist born in the Macedonian city of Stagira, Chalkidice, on the northern periphery of Classical Greece. His father, Nicomachus, died when Aristotle was a child, whereafter Proxenus of Atarneus became his guardian. At eighteen, he joined Plato's Academy in Athens and remained there until the age of thirty-seven. His writings cover many subjects – including physics, biology, zoology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, poetry, theater, music, rhetoric, linguistics, politics and government – and constitute the first comprehensive system of Western philosophy. 4. Leonardo da Vinci Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci was an Italian polymath, painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. His genius, perhaps more than that of any other figure, epitomized the Renaissance humanist ideal. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the Renaissance Man, a man of "unquenchable curiosity" and "feverishly inventive imagination". 3. Isaac Newton Sir Isaac Newton PRS MP was an English physicist and mathematician who is widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and as a key figure in the scientific revolution. His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, first published in 1687, laid the foundations for classical mechanics. Newton made seminal contributions to optics, and he shares credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of calculus. Newton's Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which dominated scientists' view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. 2. Albert Einstein Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist. Einstein's work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He developed the general theory of relativity, one of the two pillars of modern physics. Einstein is best known in popular culture for his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc². He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his "services to theoretical physics", in particular his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect, a pivotal step in the evolution of quantum theory. Near the beginning of his career, Einstein thought that Newtonian mechanics was no longer enough to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. 1. Jesus Christ Jesus, also referred to as Jesus of Nazareth, is the central figure of Christianity, whom the teachings of most Christian denominations hold to be the Son of God. Christianity regards Jesus as the awaited Messiah of the Old Testament and refers to him as Jesus Christ, a name that is also used in non-Christian contexts. Virtually all modern scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed historically, although the quest for the historical Jesus has produced little agreement on the historical reliability of the Gospels and on how closely the biblical Jesus reflects the historical Jesus. Most scholars agree that Jesus was a Jewish rabbi from Galilee who preached his message orally. Check us for more gist Allroundgist |

The most expensive homes around the world are for the super wealthy. I mean, even if Davido is truly worth N30Billion Naira, the smallest home here swallows all his fat account. In fact, if these houses were put together, they may just be worth more than the entire Nigerian Entertainment industry. Actually, these homes are worth more. 10. Rybolovlev Estate – $95 Million This house is the most expensive single family home in the country and, since it was owned by Donald Trump, it’s obviously the most expensive home ever fought over in a divorce case. The 33,000 square foot ocean-front mansion has become a key part of the proceedings since Trump’s ex-wife Elena Rybolovlev demanded jurisdiction due to infidelity. This home has 18 bedrooms, 22 bathrooms, and retails for $95 million, making it the most expensive single-family house in the nation…weird, we’re pretty sure we found nine more for this list. Unless we’re suddenly on Allroundgist Originally on sale for $125 million, it ended up being haggled down to a mere 95. We guess the economy is hurting everyone these days. 9. Silicon Valley Mansion — $100 Million As the most expensive single-family home in the US, this house… wait, didn’t we just say that the Rybolovlev Estate was the most expensive single-family house ever? Well, okay, this one went for 100 million so I guess it wins. With 5 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, and an indoor and outdoor pool (in case it rains, we guess), it’s all-in-all a pretty fancy house. 8. Fleur De Lys — 125 Million Despite being marketed as the world’s most expensive house, the Fleur De Lys somehow only falls on number 8 on our list. Wow, that’s weird, huh? It’s almost like people on the Internet are wrong. Fleur De Lys has 41,000 square feet and 15 bedrooms, but apparently no bathrooms, which we think is a huge oversight either by the architect or the person writing the articles we’re using as sources. 7. The Manor — $150 Million Here we are, finally, the most expensive residential real estate listing in the US, according to Wiki-freakin’-pedia. $150 million. Feels pretty good to put that part to rest, doesn’t it? Thanks, Aaron Spelling, for having the (7th) most expensive house in the world. This house features 56,000 square feet, 123 rooms, a bowling alley, an ice rink and allegedly an entire wing devoted to Spelling’s wife’s wardrobe. 6. The Pinnacle — $155 Million Owned by Tim Blixseth, in Montana, this house is unique for two reasons: it has a private chair lift directly from the house to a nearby ski-resort (which Blixseth owns), and is the only house on this list so far named that doesn’t claim to be the most expensive in the world. Also, we’re gonna call it right now: best back yard. Because it’s a ski resort. 5. Franchuk Villa — $161 Million This five-story, free-standing 10-bedroom Victorian Villa also features an underground indoor swimming pool, panic room, and private movie theatre. It’s also the world’s most expensive home (yeah, sure it is), at $161 million. How fancy is this place? Allegedly, during some remodelling, the noise made the Mayor of Moscow angry. The house is located in London. That’s right: the house is so fancy it doesn't make sense. 4. The Hearst Mansion — $165 Million Top Three Facts about the Fourth Most Expensive homes around the World: it was used in The Godfather, JFK spent his honeymoon there, and (holy crap, get this): it’s the most expensive home in the US! It features three swimming pools, 29 bedrooms (you have to supply your own horse heads har har har), movie theater and, for some reason, a disco. 3. Fairfield Pond — $198 Million Currently valued that way due to its property taxes, this 66,000 square-foot main house has a basketball court, bowling alley, and a $150,000 hot tub. The most valuable home in the US (again, according to Wikipedia). 2. Villa Leopolda — $736 Million Wow, that’s a big jump in price. Built by King Leopold II of Belgium in 1902 and located on the French Riviera, this home was purchased by Russian billionaire Prokhorov, who is so rich he lost billions to the latest economic collapse and still had enough fun money to buy himself a three-quarter-billion-dollar summer home. It has 27 stories, 19 bedrooms, and a rumoured 50 full-time gardeners. 1. Antilla – $1,000,000,000 This is it. The one you've been waiting for. The grand finale. Not one of the most expensive homes around the world, but the most expensive. The one billion dollar home. We give you…Antilla, the actual most expensive house in the world…finally. Located in Mumbai, Antilla challenges pretty much everything you’d expect about “what is possible in a home” and “what is possible for architecture.” The 27-story house features six floors of parking, a health level with a jacuzzi, gym, and “ice room,” a ballroom level (for dancing?) several floors of bedrooms and bathrooms and even a four-story garden — because, yeah, we guess that’s possible. The architecture is based on an Indian tradition called Vastu Shastra, which is supposed to be conducive to the movement of positive energy. In keeping with this, each floor has not only a unique design, but an entirely unique set of materials and aesthetic design — meaning each room is meant to look like it’s from a different house. Basically, this house has everything — things you can imagine, things you can’t imagine, and things you never thought to imagine but are now imagining because they sound like the greatest thing you’ve ever heard of.
