Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, who passed away at 100, leaves behind a remarkable legacy marked by dedication to peace, human rights, and global service. Serving as the 39th president from 1977 to 1981, Carter led the country through a tumultuous time, including the Iranian hostage crisis and energy crises. His post-presidency life was equally impactful, founding the Carter Center to tackle global health issues and promote democratic elections. Carter’s tireless work earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002, cementing his place as a statesman of enduring influence.
