Vlad Tepes was a product of his time. He was as nice to his enemies as his enemies were to him. I’m sure all you great historians knew that he was taken by the Turks as a child along with his brother and culturally enriched up the butt as was tradition. Then they converted his brother to Islam like some kind of Stockholm syndrome victim so he had to end his own brother.
You get vengeful after living that kind of situation. If you raped me as a child I probably would stake you and your army up the ass too in retaliation, so you can enjoy being the catcher later in life after you were the pitcher.
Thus, if Romania would organize presidential elections next Sunday and only Romanian historical characters would run for this position, 35% of the Romanians would vote for Vlad the Impaler.
Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza, ruler of the Romanian Principalities, would come next with 21% of the votes, followed by Stephen the Great (Stefan cel Mare in Romanian) – Prince of the Principality of Moldavia with 18%, Prince Michael the Brave (Mihai Viteazul in Romanian) with 9%, and Constantin Brancoveanu - Prince of Wallachia, and Decebalus – Dacia's last king with 6% each.
The survey reveals that Vlad the Impaler also ranks first when it comes to the numbers of votes based on gender. Thus, 42% of men and 29% of women would want him as President whereas 15% of men and 25% of women would vote for Alexandru Ioan Cuza.
The situation remains the same when it comes to the voters’ ages. Some 34% of those aged between 18 and 34 would vote for Vlad the Impaler, as well as 37% of those aged 35-59, and 35% of those aged over 60. Also, 35% of those living in urban areas and 36% of those from rural areas would vote for Vlad the Impaler.

In the Afterlife!
Anyway, one thing you could say about Vlad -- he knew how to cut crime to Zero.
