What most people don't know about Vlad the Impaler is that he and other in Eastern Europe and the Baltics were the last line of defense against the Ottoman Turks, who had been trying to invade and conquer Europe for decades but had been repelled without notable gains of territory except for some regions in the Baltics. Vlad's favored method of displaying the bodies of those his armies slaughtered was to impale their entire body from ass to head and stand them upright for any new invading armies to see. This was a demoralization tactic.

No one mentions that he wasn't doing this to his own people, but to the filthy invading Islamic Ottomans. Europe owes him an everlasting debt of gratitude.
