Politics
Many people consider politics boring, but 2016 will be infamous for its plethora of political upheavals, ending on that startling note as the world watched the multi-billion dollar business mogul, Donald Trump, who had no previous political experience, elected as the 45th President of the United States. Didn't see that one coming.

Adding to the hype of 2016, scandal after scandal unravelled in the political world - recall Hillary Clinton’s controversial emails? Feminists worldwide gained a huge win as female leadership came to office in lands that had previously been dominated by men. Viral stories in the UK included stories about Sadiq Khan, Queen Elizabeth, Theresa May, and David Cameron. Not so boring, wouldn’t you agree?
