Who was the world's enemy number one before Hitler? (Until 19th Century)

by n11vek

We see Hitler as the public enemy number one. Evil reincarnated. My question is who was seen like this before him? Was it unanimously Gengis Kan? Were there other people or systems that were hated by almost everyone regarding their age, race, nationality, etc?

As touched on in this older answer there wasn't really one, single, universal figure in the same way Hitler is used now.
