No one rules the world. The world political power is divided among hundreds of states.

They are people running the world, mostly the people who own the big companies and are at the top of governments as they are the ones who do the decisions for everyone else. Men represents ~87% of the top 0.1% income in the world and 71% of the top 10%.

In terms of political decisions: only 25% of all the national parliamentarians are women and just 26 women serving as head of state or government in 24 countries.
