Topics for AP European History Paper?

I have to write a paper on someone significant in Europe's History between the years of 1650 and 1800. I'm looking for suggestions. You know what they say, two heads are better than one :)

Thank you

Good list by the answerer above me. I would add Oliver Cromwell to the list, however.
