Disclaimer: While I strive to be as period as I can with my
Wallachian persona I do take liberties with the cultural
amalgamation that
was taking place in Eastern Europe during the late Medieval Period.
The following are links to Romanian
History including Walachia, Moldavia, Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire.

Illustration of John Hunyadi,
Hungarian National Hero
Born in 1387, John Hunyadi is a Hungarian national
hero because f his efforts against the Ottoman Turks. He did a great
deal to prevent Turkish rule from being extended into Europe. At the
same time, though, he also helped the Turks get as far as they did. He
sent artillery experts to help Ottoman sultan Mehmed II capture
Constantinople because he wanted to end the heresy of Eastern Orthodox
Christianity.
