Vlad: bine! ;D (ok , that is.) Returning to a behaviour more proper for adults and out of respect for the good intentions of this thread, I add another three personalities.The first for being an example of altruism (no religious implying from me, I just admired the self sacrifice she made for helping others and being genuine in that). The second as I have a series of medical personalities I admire,and this one is a national example..unfortunately, not very known to people. And the third..comes from a series of ''outlaws'' I will always be fond of. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_Teresa en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolae_Paulescu en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Roy_MacGregor

Ah, those vampires. It's better to have the vampires like Dracula, than those gay-looking guys from those modern movies, kunt remember their name... A vampire should be about blood, guts and castles, not about love and gayness.
And about Peter the Great, though there are absolutely different opinions [like, for example, Heroes of Might and Magic III - everyone loves them or hates, but I don't know anyone who doesn't care] - he finally turned Russia back to be an European country.

digs some garlic from the garden I'm afraid nowadays garlic is totally useless. It is not the garlic from the old days - killing vampires only by thinking of it. Once I was walking on a market place and saw garlic, but it was enormous, like the big brother of the ordinary garlic we have in my youth. Nothing happened - I didn't die, didn't melt, not even sneezed. So I went to the old woman selling the garlic and bought a little. Again nothing happened to me by touching it. I gave the strange garlic to the alchemists in my castle and they found in it this list. Ah, those vampires. It's better to have the vampires like Dracula, than those gay-looking guys from those modern movies, kunt remember their name... A vampire should be about blood, guts and castles, not about love and gayness. The same as the garlic. These new generations are lazy, badly educated, unskilled and incapable. They have forgotten their roots, the old vampire values and are kind and metro-sexual. I'm not going to be surprised if they from blood drinkers become blood donors.

Hey Vlad (or Alucard )!!! Alucard is a damned renegade, signing globalization treaties for a walk through city sties - another example of decadence of the old virtues. Where are you brave voivods from the past, to awake and erase all the renegade shame from the vampires' image! Have you impaled any mouse when you were in dungeon ;D ? In the dungeon was my real university! There I met a wise men, who some evil tongues had claimed as a schismatic and even black adept. He revealed me all his knowledge and of course there were some practical part. The mice were very suitable and they have nothing against to participate as objects in our scientific work. Some gossips told about other creatures, meaning 1-2 men, but I'm sure they were forerunners of the bad habits of the future generations.

My favorate Historical figurese are: 1. Tzar Simeon I the Great Simeon (also Symeon) I the Great (Bulgarian: Ñèìåîí I Âåëèêè, transliterated Simeon I Veliki) ruled over Bulgaria from 893 to 927,during the First Bulgarian Empire. Simeon's successful campaigns against the Byzantines, Magyars and Serbs led Bulgaria to its greatest territorial expansion ever,making it the most powerful state in contemporary Eastern Europe.His reign was also a period of unmatched cultural prosperity and enlightenment later deemed the Golden Age of Bulgarian culture. During Simeon's rule, Bulgaria spread over a territory between the Aegean, the Adriatic and the Black Sea,and the new Bulgarian capital Preslav was said to rival Constantinople.The newly-independent Bulgarian Orthodox Church became the first new patriarchate besides the Pentarchy, and Bulgarian Glagolitic translations of Christian texts spread all over the Slavic world of the time.Halfway through his reign, Simeon assumed the title of Emperor (Tsar),having prior to that been styled Prince (Knyaz). On 27 May 927, Simeon died of heart failure in his palace in Preslav.He was succeeded by his son Peter I, with George Sursuvul, the new emperor's maternal uncle, initially acting as a regent.As part of the peace treaty which Bulgaria and Byzantium signed in October 927 and Peter's marriage to Maria (Eirene), Emperor Romanos' granddaughter, the existing borders were confirmed, as were the Bulgarian ruler's imperial dignity and the head of the Bulgarian Church's patriarchal status. 2. Emperor Napoleon Napoleon was born in Corsica to parents of minor noble Italian ancestry and trained as an artillery officer in mainland France. Bonaparte rose to prominence under the French First Republic and led successful campaigns against the First and Second Coalitions arrayed against France. In 1799, he staged a coup d'état and installed himself as First Consul; five years later the French Senate proclaimed him Emperor of the French. Napoleon spent the last six years of his life in confinement by the British on the island of Saint Helena. An autopsy concluded he died of stomach cancer, though Sten Forshufvud and other scientists have since conjectured he was poisoned with arsenic. Napoleon said: "My true glory is not to have won 40 battles...Waterloo will erase the memory of so many victories. ... But...what will live forever, is my Civil Code." He is remembered for the establishment of the Napoleonic code, which laid the administrative and judicial foundations for much of Western Europe.
