HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO VLAD THE IMPALER'S DAD!
>Vlad II (born 30 August 1400), known as Vlad Dracul (English: Vlad the Dragon), was a voivode (English: duke) of Wallachia. He reigned from 1436 to 1442, and again from 1443 to 1447. He was the father of Mircea II, Vlad Călugărul (English: Vlad the Monk), Vlad III Dracula/ Vlad Tepes, who became posthumously known by the epithet Țepeș (English: the Impaler), and Radu III the Beautiful.

>Vlad II received the surname Dracul in 1431, after being inducted into the Order of the Dragon, founded in 1408 by the King Sigismund of Hungary (the later Holy Roman Emperor), as part of a design to gain political favor from the Catholic Church and to aid in protecting Wallachia against the Ottoman Empire.
