Explanation: Australia, back in the 1930s, organized a military expedition to cull the out-of-control emu population, with rifles and machine-guns. The emus won. And without any formal officer corps, even!

(the other leaders depicted are Julius Caesar, Genghis Khan, and Napoleon, all military leaders famed for their brilliance)
