    Basarab's father, Radu Negru originally born name Tok Temür (Tochomerius) was the (illegitim) son of king Ladislaus IV. the Cuman and Édua/Aydoya, daughter of Möngke Temür khan. After the assasination of Ladislaus IV., Nicholaus Cumanus, the brother of Édua out of revenge wrote out the entire family of the king killers in 1290 AD. In that year Édua and the minor Tok Temür went to the future Wallachia, called Terra Transalpini (Havasalföld in hungarian language), and under his uncles, khan Tokta (possible identic with Nicholaus Cumanus) protection, and his mother's regency founded the new state called "Terra Transalpini", later "Ungrovlahia". So Bassarab I. was the grandson of Ladislaus IV., and after the death of king Andreas III. of Hungary had the right, as an Árpád dinasty descent to the thron of Hungary. In 1324 AD Basarab conquered the Szörényi bánság, on the 17 April 1330 Zách Felicián tried to kill king Charles of Hungary with his two sons, but the king's bodyguards cut him down. In the winter of 1330 Basarab conquered more hungarian territory, and Charles I. led an army into Havasalföld to defeat Basarab, but Basarab defeated him on the 9 th. December 1330. After that Ungrovlachia became suveran state, and Charles I. remains Hungary's king, Basarab did not succeed in obtaining the Hungarian throne

    The Corvin dynasty was important (the family name comes from the Latin "Corvus", which means "Raven" )was one of the most important in the history of Romania, Hungary and the Balkans ; Europe.
    In 1409 his family Corvin (Voicu Corvin) received from Sigismund of Luxembourg the domain and the castle of Hunedoara, as a reward for his deeds of arms in the battles with the Turks.
    Surname he was subjected to the process of making a genealogy according to the fashion of the time ( According to the custom of the time, Voicu Corvin took the name Hunyadi (from Hunedoara))
    His son, Matthew Corvinus, became king of Hungary.
    When he was reproached for having no royal origins, he referred to his Romanian origins as the only ones who stopped the Ottoman Empire from conquering Europe.

      Mathias Corvinus aka Korvin. Adopted the name Corvinus, claiming to be a direct descendent of Marcus Valerius Messalla Corvus. He wasn't, Marcus's DNA was found in 2015. Only descendents in Dacia aka Romania is the original Corvinus's and the Corvino's that carry the DNA of his.

    I don't think I saw Alexandru Ioan Cuza as a "domnitor", the one who actually was the ruler as Moldavia and Wallachia merged. He was followed by Carol I Hohenzollern.

    My mom tells me my dad is a descendent of vlad. I'm starting to believe it because my dad dug through google and found out that his family was in the house of vlad the impaler's name.

      For pretty much all of my royal family trees, I only include male relatives (unless the monarch is female or their dynasty goes through a female line). It is mostly to save space though :)

    It is generally agreed by historians that Michael the Brave falsified his genealogy in order to claimed that he was a descendent of Draculesti.He was most likely a descendent of small nobles and greek merchants

    I don't think you got this right. Radu I, had only Dan I as his biological son. Mircea was adopted. He wasn't his nephew. His wife had Mircea prior to marrying Radu I, by an Archer from Serbia. Radu I, took him in as his own. Florescu even said this and there is DNA that proves this. Technically and DNA wise...do more research.

      Really, Draclesti had no rights to the throne...just as Edward IV descendents didn't with the Tudors.
