Portrait of Vlad the Impaler
Vlad III Dracula (1431 ? December 1476), has also been known as Dracula or Vlad the Impaler (Vlad Tepes). Vlad III was the voivode, or prince, of the principality of Wallachia (what is today an informal region in southern Romania). His surname 'Dracula' seems to come from his father's surname 'Dracul', due to the 'Order of the Dragon' he got from the Emperor Sigismund.
