Radu Bădica
Radu Bădica
(? – 19 January 1524) was the son of Radu IV the Great and Prince of Wallachia from November 1523 until January 1524.
Vlad Călugărul
Vlad IV Călugărul ("Vlad IV the Monk";
prior to 1425 – September 1495) was the Prince of Wallachia in 1481 and then from 1482 to 1495.
His father Vlad Dracul had previously held the throne, as had his brothers Mircea II and Radu the Handsome, and lastly Vlad III Dracula.
The 15th century was a very volatile time in Wallachia, with the throne passing first from one then to another of the many princes that desired it.
Both of his younger brothers, Vlad III and Radu, had been hostages for a number of years to the Ottoman Sultan, having been offered up to the Ottoman court by their own father, Vlad Dracul, in exchange for the Ottoman's support of Vlad Dracul regaining his throne.
His father had first gained the throne following the death of Vlad the Monk's uncle.
Both his brothers Mircea II and Vlad III were able military commanders in the field, and both saw success in battle against the Ottomans.
In 1447, his brother Mircea II and his father were both captured and brutally killed.
Following this, Vlad III was placed on the throne by the Ottomans, but was forced off shortly thereafter by forces supported by John Hunyadi.
This would begin a long quest by Vlad III to gain the throne, which he would do two more times.
His longest time on the throne would be from 1456 to 1462, this being his reign of terror for which he would become best known, and which would lead to him being the inspiration for the novel "Dracula", by Bram Stoker.
His brother Radu gained the throne due to the fact that he was the second in the line of succession, losing it several times to Basarab Laiotă cel Bătrân.
Radu died in January 1475, as the result of a long bout with syphilis, at which time Basarab naturally took the throne yet again, only to be forced off shortly thereafter in 1476 by Vlad III.
Vlad III was killed in battle during December 1476, after which Basarab Laiotă cel Bătrân was restored to the throne, only to be pushed off by Basarab Țepeluș cel Tânăr in November 1477.
Vlad the Monk was a contender to his brother's throne as ruler of the principality of Wallachia for many years, but he took no active part in fighting for the throne until near the end of Vlad III's lifetime.
In 1481, the same year Mehmed II died, conflict between his two surviving sons, Bayezid II and Cem, erupted into open conflict.
Vlad was now placed on the throne by Ștefan III of Moldavia, who had invaded Wallachia that June and routed Basarab IV at Râmnicu Vâlcea.
Soon enough Basarab IV was again Voivode of Wallachia, with Ottoman support.
Ștefan made a last attempt to secure his influence in Wallachia, and within the year Basarab lost the throne again, after which he would reign until 1495.
Although Vlad IV was restored, he was soon forced to accept the Sultan's suzerainty.
In 1495, he helped build St. Nicholas Church, in Brașov, Transylvania.
There is nothing historically that suggests his death that same year was anything other than natural.
His fairly long reign by comparison to those before him was due in part to his having the support of Ștefan III of Moldavia.
He was succeeded by his son, Radu cel Mare, who would reign until 1508, when he was ousted by his first cousin Mihnea cel Rău, son of Vlad the Impaler.

He was against the idea.

" Brothers!
We have heard the talk of our great father; it is very kind, he says he loves his red children.
Brothers!
I have listened to many talks from our great father.
When he first came over the wide waters, he was but a little man, and wore a red coat.
Our chiefs met him on the banks of the river Savannah, and smoked with him the pipe of peace.
His legs were cramped by sitting long in his big boat, and he begged for a little land to light his fire on.
He said he had come over the wide waters to teach Indians new things, and to make them happy.
He said he loved his red brothers, which is very kind.
The Muscogees gave the white man land, and kindled him a fire, that he might warm himself; and when his enemies, the pale faces of the south, made war on him, their young men drew the tomahawk, and protected his head from the scalping knife."
" But when the white man had warmed himself before the Indian's fire, and filled himself with their hominy, he became very large.
With a step he bestrode the mountains, and his feet covered the plains and the valleys.
His hands grasped the eastern and western sea, and his head rested on the moon.
Then he became our Great Father.
He loved his red children, and he said," Get a little further, lest I tread on thee."
With one foot he pushed the red man over the Oconee, and with the other he trampled down the graves of his fathers and the forests where he had so long hunted the deer.
But our great father still loved his red children, and he soon made them another talk.
He said," Get a little further; you are too near me."
But there were some bad men among the Muscogees then, as there are now.
They lingered around the graves of their ancestors, till they were crushed beneath the heavy tread of our great father.
Their teeth pierced his feet, and made him angry.
Yet, he continued to love his red children; and when he found them too slow in moving, he sent his great guns before him to sweep his path."
" Brothers!
I have listened to a great many talks from our great father.
But they always begin and ended in this-" Get a little further, you are too near me."
Brothers!
Our great father says that" where we are now, our white brothers have always claimed the land."
He speaks with a straight tongue, and can not lie.
But when he first came over the wide waters, while he was yet small, and stood before the great chief at the council on Yamacraw Bluff, he said" Give me a little land, which you can spare, and I shall pay you for it."
Brothers!
When our great father made us a talk, on a former occasion, and said," Get a little further, go beyond the Oconee, the Ocmulgee; there is a pleasant country," he also said" It shall be yours forever."
" I have listened to his present talk.
He says that the land where you now live is not yours.
Go beyond the Mississippi; there is game; and you may remain" while the grass grows or the water runs."
Brothers!
Will not our great father come there also?
He loves his red children.
He speaks with a strait tongue, and will not lie.
Brothers!
Our great father says that our bad men have made his heart bleed, for the murder of one of his white children.
Yet where are the red children which he loves, once as numerous as the leaves of the forest?
How many have been murdered by his warriors?
How many have been crushed beneath his own footsteps?
Brothers!
Our great father says we must go beyond the Mississippi.
We shall be there under his care, and experience his kindness.
He is very good!
We have felt it all before.
Brothers!
I have done."
