Yeah, Bismarck. Surely it is Bismarck for Germany. Yeah, exactly.
And not the slightest idea who is that cartoon personage. Very famous, I suppose.

Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence
A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.
Here we toast:
πͺπΊ The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
π§ The freest of health care
π· The finest of foods
π³οΈβπ The liberalest of liberties
π The proud non-members and honorary cousins
πΆ And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.
Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream βonly in YUROP.β
Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.

Is this (whatever this is) known outside France? I understand "most famous" as "most famous outside their respective countries"...
It's also known in Germany. This map is a joke for some reasons enjoy it, or let it be, thank you.
Yeah this map would be a bit less interesting if most of the map would be just Stalin and Hitler
Well depends on how you protray it.
Hitler for example never was specifically an Austrian leader. And with Stalin it really depends on how you want to show it. He was Georgian, but leader of the USSR. De facto Russia was the dominant republic, but de jure the SSRs were equal and the position of leadership above all of them.
Weeeeeeelll, technically he should be on Austria, and Stalin for Georgia.
They have never been leaders of Austria and Georgia :)
Can't be a leader of Austria if you make sure there is no longer an Austria.. /s
Looks nervous for Germany phew
They went for the PC solution.
Asterisk should be the one for France. I guess you could make and argument for Napoleon, though.

Psi!
I'm a little late with this comment. But besides the meme I think the other countries are not really true? I think more people know of Queen Elizabeth than queen Victoria. And how is that guy who started the second world war not on the map? And I would say thet the current leaders of Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Turkey and Poland are also more wildly known than the depicted ones.
As if Lenin and evil Stalin weren't mostly known in the world?
