1,3,4,5,7,8,10. Real human born after 1644 AD, but before 1901 AD, in a part of Eurasia that is currently within France or India
2,6,9. Male; primarily famous for something(s) to do with politics, government, royalty, or nobility, but NOT science, technology, invention, or mathematics
11. Not born in India after 1749

I think Wattsthematter's question still counts as scratched, but feel free to disagree.

Since it added no useful information, it can stay scratched.

1,3,4,5,7,8,10,11,13. Real human born after 1749 AD, but before 1851 AD, in a part of Eurasia that is currently within France*
2,6,9. Male; primarily famous for something(s) to do with politics, government, royalty, or nobility, but NOT science, technology, invention, or mathematics
12. Not a French member of the nobility
14. Not in a position of power during the French Revolution

*In theory he could have been born in a place that is now part of India, but was not considered part of India when he was born. But in practice I don't think such a place exists, because "India" referred to a broad region that included all of modern-day India.
