See the 10 youngest leaders in the world

4. Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, 37, Emir of QATAR

Born on the 3^rd of June 1980, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani is the 8^th and current Emir of Qatar. He is the fourth son of the previous Emir, and became crown prince after his elder brother renounced his claim in 2003. Following his ascension, he held various positions within the government and also founded various organizations, including Oryx Qatar Sports Investments, which owns Paris Saint-Germain F.C. among other investments.

He became the Emir of Qatar on the 25^th of June 2013 following his father’s abdication and is now the youngest reigning monarch among Gulf Cooperation Council countries.

3. Kim Jong-un, 34, Supreme Leader of NORTH KOREA

Kim Jong-un (born 8 January 1982–84 or 5 July 1984) is the Chairman of the Workers’ Party of Korea (WPK) and supreme leader of North Korea. He is the second child of Kim Jong-il (1941–2011) and is one of the most secretive rulers on earth. His life and background are shrouded in so much secrecy that even his authentic birth date is unknown. He is also one of the weirdest rulers this generation has witnessed and his nuclear ambitions and hostile attitude may plunge the world into a 3^rd global war.

While we love it when young people lead nations, he is one of the bad examples of giving a ‘child’ plenty power.
