Albert Einstein, influential figures in world history!

Albert Einstein (14 March 1879-18 April 1955) is a theoretical physicist who is widely regarded as the greatest scientist of the 20th century. He put forward the theory of relativity and also greatly contributed to the development of quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and cosmology. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his explanation of the photoelectric effect and "for his services to Theoretical Physics".
Having formulated the theory of general relativity, Einstein became famous throughout the world, an unusual achievement for a scientist. In his old age, his fame beyond the fame of all scientists in history, and in popular culture, Einstein has become a byword for intelligence or even genius. His face is one of the most known around the world.

Albert Einstein, People of the Century.

In 1999, Einstein called the "People of the Century" by Time magazine. Its popularity also makes the name "Einstein" is used extensively in advertising and other merchandise, and finally "Albert Einstein" are registered trademarks. 
To appreciate them, a unit of the photochemical named Einstein, a chemical element named einsteinium, and a named asteroid 2001 Einstein.
Einstein's most famous formula is E = mc²

Youth and university

Einstein was born in Ulm in Württemberg, Germany, about 100 km east of Stuttgart. His father named Hermann Einstein, a salesman feather bed which then undergo an electrochemical works, and his mother was Pauline. They were married in Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt. They are descendants of Jewish families; Albert schooled in Catholic school and the mother wishes he was given violin lessons.
At age five, his father showed him a pocket compass, and Einstein realized that something in space that is "empty" acted upon the needle; he would later describe the experience as one of the most evocative moment in his life. Although he makes and models of mechanical devices as a hobby, he is considered a slow learner, possibly due to dyslexia, shyness, or because the structure of rare and unusual in his brain (examined after his death). He later credited to the theory of relativity to this slowness, saying that by pondering space and time than other children, he was able to develop a more developed intellect. Another, more recently, about the mental development is that he suffers from Asperger's Syndrome, a condition associated with autism.
Einstein began to study mathematics at the age of twelve years. There are rumors that he failed mathematics in his education, but this is not true; replacement in the assessment to be confused in the following year. Two of his uncle helped to develop interest in the intellectual world at the end of his childhood and early adolescence by providing suggestions and books on science and mathematics.
In 1894, following the failure of his father's electrochemical business, the Einsteins moved from Munich to Pavia, Italy (near Milan). Albert stayed behind to finish school, finish a semester before rejoining his family in Pavia.
Failure of the liberal arts portion of the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, in Zurich) in the following year was a step backward by his family sent him to Aarau, Switzerland, to finish high school, where he received a diploma in 1896, Einstein several times to register at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule. The following year he took off his Württemberg citizenship, and become stateless.
In 1898, Einstein met and fell in love with Mileva Maric, a Serb who is a classmate (and friend Nikola Tesla). In 1900, he was granted a teaching by the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule and was accepted as citizens of the Swiss nation bloc in 1901. During this time Einstein discussed his scientific interests with close friends, including Mileva. He and Mileva had a daughter named Lieserl, born in January 1902. Lieserl, at the time, was considered illegitimate because the parents were married.
