There is 1 missing from the list: Which is the Cruciferi Sancti Stephani Regis (Order of Hospitaller Canons Regular of St Stephen) or Stephanites being named after the 1st king of Hungary St. Stephen,it was a religious institution set up by King Géza II of Hungary (1141-1162). The order was organized around a hospital that the king had earlier established in Esztergom (at that time an important station on the inland pilgrim route to the Holy Land) in honor of King St Stephen I of Hungary. They also administered a hospital at Budafelhévíz. They even did take part in the 5th Crusade led by their King, András II of Hungary, members of the Order also took part in the Battle of Muhi in 1241 just as the Teutons did.

[@DAlienzombie]

@@Thomas_the_Noble Yes, sure, but the polish King Arian II was the last one to let his people join the Ordensi about 800 or 900. Of course with the last crusade under the Teutonics against Sallahaddin II (I am not sure bout him, but distinct memory). As most of the Templars joined and united under one flag. The small Dóbrzyn Order was included too, that is why I guess they joined. The House Habsburg maybe has something in it, later centuries on.

The various militaristic orders may have earned more renown in popular imagination, but I don't think any of them can match the positive lasting achievements the Order of the Holy Ghost and other charity/medical-focused orders did in preserving and formalizing medicine as an institution across Europe. For centuries their monasteries and hospitals were the only places in Europe actively studying, cataloging, and disseminating medical literature and practice.

[@cristibrad6742]

A small mention to the missing minor germanic Order of the Dragon. They did the same as the teutonics in the north but in the east, but marauding magyars, tartars and turkic raiders proved more than the tribes of Livonia. The order was given holdings in Wallachia (southwest of the mentioned teutons in Transylvania) and most notably Vlad the Impaler's dad became an order knight. Hence why in folklore drachen -> draculea -> draculesti or simply drac is a reference to 'devil' as teutonic knights were upstanding chaps

[@TheBasedPlato]

I didn't include them because, to my knowledge, even though religion played a part in their existence, they were a chivalric order established and loyal to the Hungarian crown. There were a few more orders that were ommited in the same fashion (some in Iberia) that I cannot remember the names of now.

Bro perfectly wrote the misinformation

Dracul means "dragon," and Dracula means "Son of the Dragon." You literally mention it's the order of the dragon, but yet wrote a fanfiction about Dracul meaning devil when the most intuitive answer is that it means dragon.

[@thewisebread3653]

⁠@@carterjohnson3879As a Romanian, I can confirm we call Satan Dracul. I actually always thought Dracula was because he was so evil they called him Satan, since Dracul is the word used for Satan. It could also come from the verse in revelations where Satan appears as a red dragon, so Satan became known as Dracul or dragon. There are other words used to describe him as well, but that is one of the main ones.

The lowercase 'catholic' in other contexts refers more broadly to the universal Church comprising many Christian denominations.
