Localitatea unde Radu de la Afumați a învins armata lui Suleyman Magnificul. Pașă otoman, numit domn al țării • Newsweek România
Radu de la Afumați achieved a significant victory against Suleyman the Magnificent's forces in 1522, thwarting Ottoman plans to control Wallachia. Although not as renowned as other rulers, Radu played a crucial role in defending the region from Ottoman domination. His reign, marked by continuous conflict, saw him face challenges from rival claimants and the Ottoman Empire. After several battles, including a notable one at Glubavi, Radu ultimately recognized Ottoman suzerainty but was later assassinated in a conspiracy. His legacy includes a burial site at Curtea de Argeș, where his military achievements are commemorated.
