YES I used DUDES a lot of times because unfortunately history remembers them with pompous names and dedicate whole chapters of history books so I kinda felt like diminishing their importance at least for once. Very few talk about WHO indirectly allowed Europe to become what it today is. Very few realize that had it not been for "blood thirsty tyrants" like Vlad (among others) Europeans could easily be speaking Turkish now. Think about it ;) odd… while western Europe was dealing with renaissance, science, discovering the world was a sphere (more or less) and some bigots were burning people for ***whatever-futile-reason-here***, some OTHER dudes were fighting the Turks and tartars holding them at bay so that the the aforementioned DUDES could discover and paint and burn people alive.

I would have been more than proud to have served in Vlad's army and assisted him in cleansing the country of parasitic Saxons, Turks and traitorous Boyars.Was Vlad a brutal warlord? Yes. But what Vlad knew of torture and brutality he learned from the Turks while imprisoned and simply fought fire with fire. And impalement was a favored execution method of the Turks because of the terror it instilled in the enemy.And one must remember that a great many of the tales of Vlad's brutality against the people are concoctions of the German press and should be considered no more valid than the tabloid press of today. It is doubtful that tales such as the 'lazy housewife' ever actually took place. Unless you believe that Bill Clinton groped a female extraterrestrial ambassador from planet X then you should take the German oral traditions with a grain of salt.It was also Vlad's view that the nobles had a sacred duty to serve their monarch, protect their lands and their people with their lives if necessary. This was the origin of something akin to a constitutional monarchy. A rather advanced concept in the age of absolute monarchy.They never mention that what the sultan wanted in annual tribute was a massive amount of gold and silver and a thousand young boys. Some of the boys would be used as sex objects for the degenerate Muslim nobles but most would be inducted into the Janissary corps, converted to Islam and serve the Sultan for life as warriors.Another thing the uninformed tend to forget is that without the resistance of the warrior princes and kings like Vlad in the east Europe would be a Muslim shithole today.

He and s lot of the Merchants, who where not of walachian origin, made this stories about prince Vlad to discredit him. He was never able to impale so many people... because he had not enaugh people (soldiers) for doing that!Official evidence there was in his reign three impalements. About the cruelty of King Matthias Corvinus today no one speaks anymore: he had the soldiers he could no longer pay after the war drowned all! This same Matthew was jealous of the fame of the Prince Vlad, who was revered for its diplomatic and military skills against the Ottoman Empire in Europe ... and would have been appointed as elector! Had not Matthew and his enemies destroyed his reputation, he might now as famous European emperors in our memories ... and not as "Impaler" It is a pity, that money and the bigger interest in horrible stories avoid that the truth about this high educated, intelligent man will be spread. He was absolutely unusual for the european world because of his high education... nine languages, he spoke fluently, because he was a hostage in ottoman country he was high educated in science, mathematics , military tactics and so on. He was one of the rare persons in the christian world of the 15 th century, that knew, the earth is no disc... this was the reason because a lot peple believed, he was a sorcerer. And because he learned very early in his life, that religion is only a tool in the hands of some poorly educated rich people to manipulate the more poorly or nott-educated sheep of their countries. So he was a revolutioner but no nutcher.... It is a pity… the most stories about “Impaler” are the stories, King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary ordered to print in germany.

Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain, Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth, Maximilian I of Bavaria and Gustav I of Sweden all have relatively better posthumous reputations than Vlad (possibly with the exception of Henry), and all of them were prone to cruel and unusual punishments of enemies, opponents and anyone who managed to piss them off sufficiently. My bet is that they would have behaved exactly the same as Vlad in a similar situation.Vlad's PR mistake was most likely that he went after the German settlers in Transylvania who were loyal to the (German) Holy Roman Emperor. The Germans had a well developed propaganda machine, and they used it to smear his name in order to get back at him. And boy did it work!

They remind of of the Belgians who have reinvented King Leopold of the Congo. He was mass murderer of millions of Africans (even before Hitler) and the Belgians believe he was a great man. It just comes to show how cultures are brainwashed as long as they benefit from the acts.

I mean look at the picture. So while Radu becomes Sultan's boyfriend, Vlad gets it in the back over and over again by the guards, day after day. Then things turn around, and he is in position to decide the fate of some enemy turks. What does he do? Shows mercy unheard of for that times and sets them free? Beheads them? Impales them?
