What Actually Happened To The Children Of History’s Most Evil Men?
What the descendants up to now?
History speaks of having a symphony of good and evil throughout humanity. We have been hearing about the people who were known for the good they brought to this world and those who brought only evil.
The yin-yang easily explains this terminology — it is an ancient Chinese philosophy. The concept of yin-yang describes how opposite forces (good and evil) are interconnected in the world.
What does it have to do with the descendants of the most wicked people in history? It is related — the children of these infamous men were often overshadowed by the evil left for them as their legacy.
We will try to learn more about the descendants of the world’s most evil men in the list below:
Uday Hussein, Son Of Saddam Hussein
Uday Hussein was the first son of Saddam Hussein and heir to his father’s empire. Uday was much crueler when compared to his father, Saddam.
When his father Saddam was in power, he appointed Uday as chairman of the Iraq Football Association and Iraq Olympics Committee.
Uday was constantly criticized for not being the rightful chairman because of his actions. Uday was ruthless when the national team returned defeated, and he was used to punishing the team in whatever way he wished.
Uday, the heir, had much influence on the institutions, and no justice was ever brought to him.
Uday lost his seat as heir after he killed Saddam’s personal guard at a party. The accusation was that the guard was the one who introduced his father to his stepmother or third wife, Saddam Hussein.
Uday and his younger brother Qusay were killed in Mosul during the Iraq war in 2003.
Svetlana Iosifovna Alliluyeva, Daughter Of Joseph Stalin
Svetlana Alliluyeva, the only daughter of the leader of the Soviet Union, Joseph Stalin, was the only child of Stalin’s second wife, Nadezhda Alliluyeva.
Svetlana saw trauma starting at a very young age. When she was six, her mother passed away, and due to her dad’s status, problems never stopped coming her way.
She shifted to the US in 1976 as a defector and became a naturalized citizen.
Svetlana Alliluyeva changed her name to Lana Peters and wrote four books. She entertained three marriages from which she had three children. Svetlana passed away at 85 in Wisconsin, USA.
Bettina Goering, Niece Of Hermann Goering
Sometimes it’s just hard to escape from the shadow of your infamous ancestors.
Bettina Goering, the great-niece of President of the Reichstag, Hermann Goering, was Adolf Hitler’s second in command.
Bettina Goering ran from her home at 13, joined a cult, and traveled the world before settling down in the United States.
Even after changing her name and being many miles from her home, she still felt ashamed of her heritage, and at the age of 30, she traveled to Mexico to be sterilized, she explained it’s my bloodline, and I don’t want it to continue. I don’t want any more Goering.
Bettina appeared in many documentaries, and in one, she stated that she and her brother both are sterilized.
Mutassim Gaddafi, Son of Muammer Al Gaddafi
Muammar Al Gaddafi was a revolutionist, a politician, and a de facto leader of Libya. His son Mutassim Gaddafi was his national security advisor.
Mutassim Gaddafi was known for his exuberant spending and luxury lifestyle. Mutassim’s girlfriend claims that Mutassim used to spend over 1.6 million USD per month.
Mutassim’s parties are well known, he hired artists like Mariah Carey and Beyonce to sing at his parties, and other well-known people were used to attending his parties, like Lindsey Lohan and Jay Z.
Mutassim Gaddafi was killed during the Arab spring alongside his dad Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.
Sar Patchata, Pol Pot’s Daughter
Sar Patchata, daughter of Cambodian revolutionist Pol Pot, was also the country’s prime minister for four years, from 1975 to 1979.
During Pol Pot’s reign, Cambodia faced the worst time in its history. More than a million people died due to hunger, execution, and diseases.
Other than that, the country’s economic fall didn’t help make things any better; therefore, he is considered one of the worst rulers in modern history.
Sar Patchata being the only child of Pol Pot, never had the freedom she desired. After her father died in 1998, Sar Patchata was adopted by Tep Khunnal, Khmer rouge’s ambassador to the UN.
Sar Patchata had a tough life, and she was forced to stay on the run due to the nature of her father’s crimes. She saw a lot of evil at a very early age.
After her father’s death, Pol Pot, Sar Patchata lived a normal life, achieving her master’s degree and getting married.
Jean-Claude Duvalier, Son Of François Duvalier
Jean Claude Duvalier, was the son of former President of Haiti François Duvalier.
François ruled for more than 14 years. From 1957 to 1971, the Haitians faced their worst time under his regime — from zero economies to the killing and execution of more than 50 to 60 thousand people.
Jean Claude is a true example of “like father like son.” Jean was no different from his dad. Mass killing, inflation, and hunger prevailed.
After ruling for more than 15 years, the public overthrew Jean’s government, a year longer than his dad. Jean Claude Duvalier died at the age of 63, on the 4th of October, 2014, in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Final Words
The lives of these Descendants were not easy in most cases, but still, some chose to side with good when they found out the reality, and others chose to stay on the infamous path of the one before them.
