Vlad's Guardian
Vlad Tepes, also known as Vlad the Impaler, was a 15th-century Romanian prince who is best known for his brutality in battle. He was said to have impaled his enemies on stakes, and his reign of terror earned him the nickname "The Impaler."
However, there is another side to Vlad Tepes' story. He was also a devout Christian, and he believed that he was doing God's work by fighting against the Turks. He saw himself as a defender of Christianity, and he was willing to do whatever it took to protect his people.
One of Vlad Tepes' most famous battles was against the Ottoman Turks at the Battle of Varna in 1444. The Turks were led by Sultan Murad II, and they were vastly outnumbered by the Romanians. However, Vlad Tepes led his men to victory, and he is credited with saving Christianity from the Turks.
After the Battle of Varna, Vlad Tepes became a national hero in Romania. He was known as a fierce warrior, but he was also a just and merciful ruler. He was loved by his people, and he is still remembered as one of Romania's greatest kings.
