comment Scientists who became major political leaders
@FelixGoldberg Yes, I was talking more about the "civil servant" part. Although he wasn't elected as a prime minister, he was appointed in a provisional government, so probably he fails both your criteria.

comment Scientists who became major political leaders
Assembling a list of examples doesn't really work well with the Q&A format, I'm afraid I'll have to vote to close. There are quite a few scientists who turned into politics, both China's premier, Wen Jiabao, and China's president, Hu Jintao, have backgrounds in engineering, for example. Angela Merkel has a doctorate in physical chemistry, and if your question includes political scientists then the list goes on ad infinitum.

comment When was “diablo” first used to refer to the Devil?
@coleopterist The common pattern in the quotes in the answer is "διάβολος ο πλάνων", Satan will try deceive you (πλάνων == deceiver) by slandering (διάβολος == slanderer) god. And... this is all I got.
