This is a history game. You give 3 clues about your identity as an historical figure. The person who answers correctly then picks another historical figure and gives 3 clues, etc. I will go first.

1. I was the governor of two southern states in the USA.
2. I was the commander of the Texas army in its revolution against Mexico.
3. I was the President of a republic.

Who am I?

I will guess that the answer is not Davy Crockett, Not L. B. Johnson (or Ladybird), not Gregg Abbott.   I will take a shot at the answer; Sam Houston.

1. A person called Leonardo of Pisa.
2. Real name Leonardo Pisano Bigolla
3. He dreamed up a system of numbers that can describe the number of petals on a flower and also identify the Golden ratio. What are his numbers   commonly called? ................Clue; Not Bigolla numbers

cheating by using google is permitted in this game I presume.

First, you were right about Sam Houston.

Second, the answer to your puzzle is Fibonacci Numbers.

I will wait for confirmation before posting again.

I was thinking of Joan of Arc, but I see that Napoleon is also correct, so you win.
