Historical People Get Imported to Mount and Blade: Renown Level

[Shaxx]

Based on the renown level of the Kings and Lords in the game, how do you think historical characters from our own history would line up?

A few random examples in no particular order:

Napoleon Bonaparte - 3,500?
Genghis Khan - 3,000?
Alexander the Great - 4,000?
Julius Caesar - 4,000?
Hannibal Barca - 3,000?
Charlemagne - 2,000?
Alfred the Great - 500?
Timur the Lame - 1,000?
Charles Martel - 0, definitely zero, no one remembers this guy or his accomplishments and their impact on the western world.
Edward Teach AKA Blackbeard - 2,500?
Captain Kidd - 750?

And so on and so forth, post your thoughts and ideas.

I should point out that renown does not necessarily mean skill or success, just by how well they are known.

Wouldn't Charles Martel be known a lot more during the time he lived? I assume the renown is based off of how well he was known back in his day.

That is a good point.

Charles Martel sort of rescued the whole of christian Europe of the massive muslim army, nothing big though, just rescuing a whole civilisation from another mad angry civilisation.
0 renown right? Even a mercenary would have more, hell even a peasant, right?
