FWIW, I'm from Canada and am familiar with Robert the Bruce, so that answer would not bother me.

I'm familiar with him only because of Civilization VI, which seems oblique enough that'd I'd not expect most people to know him.

Subjective if he's 'best' known for USA activities, but a considerable enough portion.

Did he die in the 20th century?

1. Male
2. Not fictional
3. Not a professional athlete
4. Some previous government affiliation or employment.
5. Not primarily known for work in entertainment
6. Not currently alive
7. Has killed someone, directly or indirectly
8. Is known for how they make their living
9. Not a national leader in time of war
10. Status as an outlaw or connected with organized crime
11. Not member of military, but in a way known for ‘ military-related achievements, feats, whatever’
12. Not responsible for killing anyone between 1850-1870
13. Significantly (not best) known for activities that took place in the USA.

Lot of great clues here. No guesses?

Wrong Guesses:

"Military-related" achievements/feats may be misleading. Military 'type' achievements/feats is probably more accurate.

Born in USA?
