From Ronald Reagan to Julius Caesar, here are 11 world leaders who were left-handed
When former US President Barack Obama signed his first executive order in 2009, he said: "That's right, I'm a lefty, get used to it."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a lefty.
Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta is also one of many left-handed world leaders. Kenyatta, the son of Kenya's first ever president, has led the country since 2013.
Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, who has occupied his office since 2004, also writes with his left hand.
Prince William — seen here in 2015 — is a left-handed royal.
Former UK Prime Minister David Cameron is seen here in Jakarta signing a guest book with his left hand.
Bill Clinton was the third consecutive US president who writes with his left hand.
Here's his predecessor, George HW Bush...
... and his predecessor, Ronald Reagan.
Reagan was born left-handed, but his schoolteachers forced him to learn right-handed writing.
Many former US presidents were also lefties. They include James Garfield, Herbert Hoover, Harry Truman, and Gerald Ford.
Though there (obviously) isn't photographic evidence to prove it, multiple historical documents have recorded Roman Empire ruler Julius Caesar to be left-handed.
Statues and paintings also depict Simon Bolivar, the military leader who liberated Latin America from Spain, holding his sword or documents in his left hand.
