Is his the most tragic story in history?

>Ottomans help, putting his father on throne in return for political hostages
>Vlad and his brother Radu grow up in Ottoman court, learning Ottoman language, Persian literature, Quran, Sciences and Philosophy
>Radu is well behaved and learned, becomes friends with Mehmed II, future Mehmed the Conqueror
>Vlad is stubborn and disobedient, is often subject to corporal punishment for his insubordination
>Vlad and Radu both spoke Turkish as their primary language
>Ottoman Sultan tries to grow up Vlad to be a puppet prince, establishing him as King of Wallachia as a Vassal
>Vlad rebels, kills envoys Ottomans sent to collect tribute, later impales soldiers sent
>He uses his knowledge of Turkish and Ottoman traditions to infiltrate Ottoman camp at night and kills everyone there
>He manages to resist Ottomans for years, inflicting great loses on them repeatedly
>His brother, now a Muslim fights alongside with Mehmed to take control of Wallachia and they eventually manage it
>Vlad escapes to Hungary, Hungarians arrest him and deliver him to Ottomans

Just think if he had killed Mehmed during the night attack.

This desu.
They could have ruled wallachia peacefully with the backing of one of the great powers of the time.
>>1977854
>Ottoman language
No such a thing. Also Vlad is an ungrateful bastard. He is the real life Theon Greyjoy.
>>1979058
Pretty much this
Mehmed seemed like a cool guy desu Vlad was just a jealous bitch
>>1977854
>His brother, now a Muslim fights alongside with Mehmed to take control of Wallachia and they eventually manage it
>Vlad escapes to Hungary, Hungarians arrest him and deliver him to Ottomans

I am from the Balkans, and there is always a Radu among us.
>>1977854
I wonder how many Turkish men fucked both boys. Could the difference between Vlad and Radu have been nothing more than Radu liking it up the ass while Vlad hated his repeated rapes?

>Sultan prefers smashing Radu's boipussy instead of yours
>even your trademark blowjobs just don't cut it
>the seed of hate is planted
>>1977905
Fuck Radu, nothing worse than fratricide
>>1980693
Vlad the Impaler? Was he just getting his own back?
>>1980769
Not a whole lot Radu could have done. It wasn't his fault that Vlad was such a vicious pissbaby. He should have just paid tribute and be thankful the Ottomans gave the throne back to his family.
>>1980769
There was no fratricide, and besides it was Vlad being the dick and rebelling against Ottomans, which both his father and brother supported.
>>1979058
Ottoman was a dialect of Turkish, so its still accurate.
>>1981499
Ottoman refers to the House of Osman. It has nothing to do with dialect. Istanbul Turkish, which was later standardized as the Official Turkish is the only dialect you can refer related with this topic.

It is a wrong term used. Just because people are keep using it, doesn't make it less wrong. The same logic as retarded people using Scandinavian interchangebly with Nordic.
Ottoman Turkish can only refer to the language at that time, not for a dialect. And again, the differences in that high-class language from the regular language started appearing around 16th century, definetely not at the time of Vlad the Impaler.

Pottery.
Didn't Vlad III take over Wallachia one more time after his imprisonment, only for all of his allies to pussy out and leave him facing a huge Ottoman horde?
Also, while his life was rough, records suggest he was kind of a douchebag himself.
