Randulo.com<p>The last empress of France, Eugénie de Montijo:<br>She ruled France when her husband could not. She made huge societal changes: schools for girls, hospitals, the fashion industry that became "Haute couture" creating jobs for thousands, and this at a time when women were 2nd class citizens at best.
