* The region of Transylvania was once under Ottoman control, a fact that the historical basis of [[Dracula]] famously resented, which led him to stir a revolt against his former masters, during which he gained his nickname by impaling thousands of Ottoman troops on trees to terrify them into ceasing their attempts to stop him.

* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Many of it's contemporaries throughout much of it's history regarded them as such.
