5. Mao Zedong
We are continuing our list of most evil people in history with Mao Zedong who will be remembered as one of the cruelest dictators in the world, and probably the worst thing that could happen in the history of China. He remained in that position for more than 30 years and basically did not do even the simplest thing to make life in China better. Due to his merciless reign and horrible treatment of the people, around 30 million of them died. Some of them committed suicide, some of them died due to famine, while some of them were simply killed.
