The Legend of Dracula 💀☠️☠️☠️

-



Published in 1897, Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula" was able to create a new literary taste for vampires among fans and a subsequent wave of films. Because of this, the name "Dracula" was immortalized among vampire characters who used supernatural powers to hunt people and drink their blood. To create Bram Stoker's Dracula, he no doubt drew on folklore about the "undead" popular in medieval Europe. However, did you know that the character "Dracula" was inspired by historical accounts of the 15th century Romanian prince Vlad Tepes? Prince Vlad Tepes, born in Transylvania as the second son of a nobleman named Vlad Dracul II, received the name Dracula, meaning "son of Dracula". That's when he joined a secret organization of Christian knights known as the Order of the Dragon (Dracula means "dragon" in Romanian).


As the ruler of Wallachia, now part of Romania, Prince Vlad Tepes was notorious for a variety of brutal punishment tactics, including the brutal torture, mutilation, and mass murder of his enemies. He never hesitated to mutilate, decapitate, steam or skin his enemies while they were still alive. However, his favorite method of punishment was to drive a wooden spike through the bodies of his enemies and watch them die.


During his war against the Ottoman invaders in 1462, Prince Vlad Tepes is said to have slaughtered 20,000 people with wooden spikes on the banks of the Danube River. He was later captured and imprisoned by Hungarian forces. Finally, he was able to regain power in 1476, but was killed in battle that same year. According to some reports, Vlad used the bodies of those killed with wooden spikes as his own food. It is no secret that this terrifying tale of Vlad Tepes, the name "Dracula" and his birthplace, Transylvania, formed the basis for Bram Stoker's famous vampire fiction.

Do you know about mercury?

  Mercury is a metal found in the Earth's crust. It is one of the rarest metals in the world. Because of its rarity, it is very expensive. Usually 1 kilo is around 50 US Dollars. Mercury is very dense and heavy at 13.5 g/mL (usually something like a heavy iron plow floats when placed in a container filled with mercury). There is 1Kg of mercury in this small kippi below. Mercury begins to be absorbed into the skin within moments of contact with human skin. In that way, mercury enters the human brain and other systems (this event is called mercury poisoning). If mercury fumes enter the lungs, the condition is even worse. In case of mercury poisoning, first there is a headache with dizziness. With continued exposure to more mercury, ingestion of mercury particles can cause long-term speech and expression difficulties. Also, long-term inhalation of mercury fumes can cause death.

 White Sand National Park  The blue sky is surrounded by  clouds above the wonderful white sand horizon that stretches to infinity. It is a majestic mountain range that stretches across the horizon where the white land meets the blue sky. Exposed to the intense sun, the shining Valuka plateau is undulating and devoid of vegetation. No living being can be seen. If the blue sky is not mentioned, it can be doubted whether the above is a description of the surface of the moon. No, this is the Maheshakya Shweta Valuka desert found on the earth we live on. It was the place where the world's first atomic weapon was used to destroy the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. This magnificent plot of land is located in the Tularowsa Basin in the state of New Mexico, United States of America. Although the sand in other deserts is made up of silica, the sand in the White Waluka desert is made up of a mineral called gypsum (Calcium sulfate). Chalk sticks that you and I know well a...
