Eva Peron was born into a working class family and died as Evita, the beloved mother to Argentina. Her life went from a dusty and rural Pueblo to a stage in front of a million-strong crowd. She was both loved and loathed, admired and feared - she had a lot of power and influence, but she also worked exceptionally hard to try and improve the lives of the Argentine people. Perhaps one thing everyone can agree on is that she was a polarising and interesting figure who achieved a lot in a very short life.
