List of Famous people named Charles

Charles Percier was a neoclassical French architect, interior decorator and designer, who worked in a close partnership with Pierre François Léonard Fontaine, originally his friend from student days. For work undertaken from 1794 onward, trying to ascribe conceptions or details to one or other of them is fruitless; it is impossible to disentangle their cooperative efforts in this fashion. Together, Percier and Fontaine were inventors and major proponents of the rich, grand, consciously-archaeological versions of neoclassicism we recognise as Directoire style and Empire style.

Charles Assalé was a Cameroonian politician of the Union of the Peoples of Cameroon. He served as Minister of Finance of French Cameroon from 1958 to 1959, and was the first Prime Minister of the federated state of East Cameroon from 15 May 1960 to 19 June 1965.
