I had no idea Vlad was such a capable administrator. It's a bit overshadowed by his love of pointy sticks. Great video!

[Zellig]

Vlad: "I sent you a man's head plz reply"

[fulminatus]

I'm so glad you picked Vlad. More Eastern European middle ages please.

[vicentlazar]

Damn, what he did to Dan III was utter humiliation and must have been really satisfying for Vlad. Having the murderer of your father and brother defeated in a duel, then having him dig his own grave in front of his men before cutting his head and impaling them all. That was some "Count of Monte Cristo level" revenge.

[SarisChannel]

So the real Vlad the Impaler is more interesting than the vampire stories he influenced.

[Knowledgia]

I love that you are creating videos about important battles of Romanian People. Thank you so much for that sir!

"When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show them!"
-Vlad Tepes

[mate]

i really like the fact that you tried to say the romanian names corectly. keep it up

[tyrannicfool]

When you are so OP you act as your own personal champion, administrator, and spy.

[danila]

That pronunciation of targoviste was spot on, especially for a non native, well done

[claudiuvasilescu]

This was just marvelous. You have no idea, dear sir, how much i wanted to see more videos with romanian history . But putting this aside, your point of view and how you explain everything in every video that you posed by now, is just beautiful. Thank you for your hard work.

[HistoryTime]

Vlad the Impaler... Well, this is going to be brutal... *gets popcorn*

[mrbananman]

I'm Romanian and i think this presentation is awesome !
I thank you personally for finding out time, and energy to teach everybody who wants to know more about our history !
And also, the narrator is great and the animations are extraordinary !

[MoonlightEmbrace]

Humiliating your father's killer by forcing him to dig his own grave in front of his men,
Sneaking into an Ottoman fortress, assassinating the guards and eliminating the garrison...
Man this deserves to be turned into a movie series - its literally the Romanian version of Game of Thrones.

[CrimsonGuard]

The real life Vlad is far more terrifying than any vampire adaptation I've seen.

[Duras]

Vlad Tepes was a real badass and had balls of steal to enter personally in the enemies city or camp.

[badwolf]

I live in Targoviste and it's so cool to walk around the city, looking at castle ruins and think: "Damn these have been here for hundreds of years. This is where Vlad lived"

[anthonyvaleriuskevin]

Ivan the Terrible : I am the cruelest person alive.
Vlad the Impaler : Hold my beer.

[andreizzota]

I rarely find videos about Romanian history that stick to the actual facts so nicely. What a great job, thanks a lot for your effort! Keep it up, sir!

[HellStr]

a king who fights his own battles... that says a lot about the man
