Are there any leaders who are more meme than leader? Boudica was a massive failure, and yet she's revered by so many people for her failed rebellion. Even Vercingetorix is less of a meme than Boudica, and yet she's hailed as the greatest of the Celtic peoples.

Why is Boudica such a meme, and is there anyone who is a bigger meme than she?

People are enamored with leaders that rally revolutions within an occupied people. William Wallace and Judah Macabe are similar figures in that regard.
