Vlad Dracula and Mehmed II: the Conqueror and the Impaler (SciCast #668) (2025x44)
Bemutató időpontja: 2025 Nov 31
Two men. Two empires. Two worldviews on a collision course. In this special Halloween episode, we explore the encounters and confrontations between Vlad III, the Impaler of Wallachia, and Mehmed II, the Conqueror of Constantinople. Far beyond the legend of the vampire or Eastern exoticism, we investigate how the stories of Christian resistance and Ottoman expansion intersect in the heart of the Balkans in the turbulent 15th century.
