Vlad II Dracul

Mircea I of Wallachia

Vlad II received the surname Dracul in 1431, after being inducted into the Order of the Dragon as part of a design to gain political favor from the Catholic Church and to aid in protecting Wallachia against the Ottoman Empire.

Radu I of Wallachia

The "bravest and ablest of the Christian princes", as he was described by German historian Leunclavius, ruled Wallachia for 32 years. Apart from his military successes Mircea was an art lover, leaving us among other monuments beautiful Cozia Monastery.

Nicholas Alexander

of Wallachia

He is identified by many historians as the legendary Radu Negru, a mythical voievode of the early medieval state Wallachia, founder of the state's institutions and ruler.

After initially resisting to pressures to become the Kingdom of Hungary's vassal, he yielded to king Louis I in 1354, and recognized the right of the Roman Catholic Church to establish missions in his principality.

Basarab I of Wallachia

In 1330 King Charles I of Hungary launched an expedition into Wallachia to restore his authority over that area. On November 12, after three days of fighting, Basarab defeated the Hungarian forces. The battle marked the end of Hungarian rule and the appearance of the first independent Romanian principality.
