  The real Vlad is so much more interesting than the fictional character.

  I absolutely died when I realised you&apos;d used Sebastian Stan as Radu in his portrait.

  I like how foreigners go:<br>&quot;Vlad was so evil to his people!&quot;<br><br>While Romanians( all of them, not just Wallachians)go: &quot; love the guy, that&apos;s ma boi!&quot;

  Vlad calling for a duel is a badass decision. No way to demonstrate leadership than to do the deed oneself.

  As a Romanian, born in the same city as Vlad, I can honestly say Dan knows way more about this than I do.

  Wallachia is on the wrong side of the Carpathians. <br><br>As a small Christian buffer state facing the superpower of the age, Vlad had to play a very careful game. <br><br>He did so brilliantly by getting inside the ottoman minds and destroying their will to fight.

  Unrelated: &nbsp;about 20 years ago my mom was trying to push a chicken onto a skewer and impaled her hand, straight through. Miraculously, she somehow missed all the veins, tendons, nerves, everything. A couple of hours at the hospital and she was fine, other than the nifty scars she still has.<br><br>And that&apos;s the story of how I learned who Vlad the Impaler was when I was a teenager, and why we still call my mom &quot;Vlad&quot; when she&apos;s cooking.

  Vlad is considered a great former leader, and a hero in Romania. His fight against the thieves and the Ottomans is legendary. As well as being known as a vampire. A defender of Christianity and eastern Europe.

  The history of Vlad the Impaler is perhaps one of the most fascinating stories in Medieval History. &nbsp;Vlad and Elizabeth Bathory are two of my favorites.
