In Pics, Videos: World's Top 5 Iron Ladies

As we celebrate the Month of Woman, March, 'SEE' spots the light on Iron ladies in modern history. British late Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was the first to be called an iron lady.

The nickname itself was coined by a Soviet journalist, stemming from Thatcher 's fierce determination and unyielding will. It also found its roots from what is arguably one of Thatcher’s most defining moments — fighting Argentina in the Falklands war in 1982.

Thatcher, died from a stroke on Monday at the age of 87. She was known for a long list of successes. However, her uncompromising style and strong-headed nature have fueled her legacy more than anything else.
