He did what he did in an early display of psychological warfare, and because he knew the ways of the Turks, he used them against them.

It's interesting that in their home country some of these historical rulers are actually looked upon favorably.

[@lucaiacob6206]

[@LateNightHacker]

Indeed. I think it's quite narrow to compare things rulers did to benefit their people back when human rights weren't the same as they are today. Back when Vlad ruled, if you didn't kill everybody, the county you invaded would surely come back at you. If the ruler is bad, they will face opponents inside their own kingdom

As several others have mentioned, US rulers were conspicuously absent. So if you do make a video about them, I've compiled some ideas below. These were more than one-off assassinations of unfriendly foreigners. Each of these resulted in mass casualties: - American Civil War - Genocide of indigenous Americans - Unnecessarily atom-bombed Japan, simply to showoff one's nuclear superiority - Devastated Vietnam - Attacked Iraq using false pretenses - Ate hamburgers and fried chicken while half a million Americans died in a pandemic.

He was the illegitimate child of Mircea, and, therefore, would not have had the right to the family name and would not be the rightful heir to the throne. The rightful heir was the only legitimate child of Mircea, Mihail. All of that, of course, is irrelevant because that was his father, not Vlad the Impaler himself, whose real name was Vlad Țepeș. BTW, "dragon" would have likely been interchangeable with "serpent". After all, a dragon looks like a big snake with legs. The serpent is a symbol of Satan/the Devil because of the reference to the snake in the Garden of Eden who talked Eve into eating the apple.

Castro and Gaddafi, one of the greatest leaders we have ever seen

[@marcuspoosz2190]

Hirohito wasn't really that evil, it was more of the government, especially Tojo who stood behind the war crimes that japan comitted. While you can argue Hirohito may or may not have been involved, he certainly dosnt belong to this list.

[@nickcopeland6915]

@@marcuspoosz2190 Yeah, I did more research a while ago, and I agree Hideki Tojo was the real villain.

[@jaminbenlavandera5717]

Thank goodness for the fact that no evil lasts longer than 100 years.

Starts off good with Jim Jones. This was a good list and #1 is well deserved.

Watching this makes me miss when History Channel was actual history.

[@mustangmike8515]

This list felt short. What about Fidel Castro, Pablo Escobar, Nicolae Ceaușescu, Vladimir Putin, Pizarro & Cortez (both destroyed civilisations in Peru & Mexico), Benito Mussolini, Pinochet, the Argentina Military Junta, Jean Bedel Bokassa, Gadaffi, Papa Doc & his son Baby Doc from Haiti, the Somoza Family.....and many more from now and from the past.

[@darky1595]

How many people did gaddafi killed?

[@mustangmike8515]

@@darky1595 you must be kidding. He killed millions in his home country with public executions on stadiums. He even had this crazy fanatic girl who puled the legs of people who were hanged. Also he blew up some pan am flights on the UK. I think this guy was evil. Mojo fails including a crazy lady who killed babies vs crazy dictators as Hitler, Stalin and Idi Amin

[@dychrisshandonsmith1242]

I ❤️ this video and channel

[@andresciahooten9598]

I don’t think that this list is long enough. There are a lot more people that need to be on this list

[@Gnomelotte]

Very much so. Including people thrown in with others (like the Serbian and Bosnian Serbian leaders from the 90's) Some others have been mentioned by other commenters already so i won't repeat them, but some I am missing are Baghdadi (former leader of IS) and Commodus.

[@ArmandoRodriguezzz737]

Amon Goethe should have been on this list , he was soo cruel that the Nazis discharged & charged him for his actions. in the movie Schindler’s list the director intentionally did not show all of Goethe’s atrocities. Also vlad the impaler should have been number 1 on this list

[@andrewkind2820]

the worst "person" is the one who caused all this and every other horror and atrocity in history to happen yet instead of being hated they're loved, revered, and literally worshiped

[@realprimeart]

Who might that be? Who are you referring to?

[@PATRICKSMITH1]

Vlad Tsepes was not a bad guy. he was a hero who prevented the Ottoman invasion of Europe

[@tim.k5462]

In my opinion you could also put Putin on that list

[@MasterOfTheElements]

[@julianaadams5751]

Vlad Tsepes (pro. Seeps) was a Wallachian nobleman and hero. He very successfully routed the Turks from his section of Romania by impaling 10,000 of them on stakes around his castle. This terrified the advancing Turkish Army to the point where they immediately retreated. Vlad and his younger brother were ransomed to the Turkish emir as children, where they were sexually abused by the emir and his court, and when the time came for them to be released, his brother didn't want to go home. Vlad hated him for that. His father belonged to the Order of the Dragon, or Dracul, so Vlad was son of the dragon, or Dracula. He was tough, but he was fair and the punishments fit the crimes in the country he loved. He had a solid gold chalice placed on the village well, and the chalice was never stolen. Some emissaries from the Turkish government sat at his dinner table, and he asked them to remove their turbans. They said that it was THEIR custom to keep them on. Fine, says he and had his servants nail the turbans to their heads. He was a fierce, but fair, leader. Wallachia was grateful for him.

During Italy's colonial expansion in the 1930s, Mussolini, the Italian fascist leader, unleashed unspeakable horrors in Ethiopia. His forces employed chemical weapons, ruthlessly executed civilians, and perpetrated brutal suppression, marking a dark chapter of war crimes and atrocities.

[@rebelsons1476]

not sure if you saw it, but Pol Pot was in this list a bit towards the end, not sure what number though

Prayers to the combined millions who either died horribly or suffered against their will from these monsters. Honestly, we shouldn’t looking up to these people knowing how terribly they lived, and lesser monsters and criminals like Alex Murdaugh and Chris Watts shouldn’t be revered either. We need people like MLK Jr., Gandhi, Mandela, and Malala as guiding lights to ensure that every human being has the right to live and enjoy a good life.
