There has been more then one answer to this question because there are many stories about Vlad and his brother, but the one i have heard the most from my grandfather who infact lives in Romania is that Radu and Vlad were fighting over the roomers that had been going around that Radu was going to get the thrown and get rid of Vlad, which drove Vlad to throw his brother out of the Royal line to the thrown all together, then Radu was murdered that night Vlad had thrown him out, which Drove Vlad into an anger most vilent, and he lived most of the remainder of his life in depression. that might be more of an answer you were looking for (sorry)
Radu cel Frumos (= the handsome) was the brother of Vlad III. He was in slavery with his brother and eventually became the slave/lover of Vlads enemy, Sultan Mehmet II from the Ottoman Empire. He died a slow and painful death after contracting what is described as a sexually transmitted disease.

No
yes, they did live in teepee's and also lodges were a home of theirs.
Cneajna of Moldavia was the mother of Vlad Tepes.
Vlad Tepes (Cepeš)
It's the surname of Vlad Tepes, often called Vlad Dracul, the Prince of Wallachia in the 15th century and the man who lent his name to Dracula the Vampire. "Tepes" is Romanian for "Impaler"; "Vlad Tepes" means "Vlad the Impaler".
He had two older half-brothers, Mircea II and Vlad Calugarul, and a younger brother, Radu cel Frumos.
The movie Vlad Tepes was released in 1971. It was directed by Doru Nastase, and tells the story of Vlad Tepes, perhaps better known as Vlad the Impaler.
It means "one who impales"
It is not said in the novel, but according to the fact that Count Dracula is Vlad III Tepes (at least, he is in the book), he has two brothers: Mircea II and Radu cel Frumos (=the good-looking).
Radu cel Frumos (= the handsome) was the brother of Vlad III. He was in slavery with his brother and eventually became the slave/lover of Vlads enemy, Sultan Mehmet II from the Ottoman Empire. He died a slow and painful death after contracting what is described as a sexually transmitted disease.
one of them was Poienari Castle
Yes he was a real person
Vlad Tepes, like Dracula from the book, is said that his second wife did infact kill herself from jumping from the tower at Rasnoph (not sure if i spelt that right) because she was depressed over Vlads death, but he wasnt infact dead only held captive by the Turks
No, Vlad Dracul was his father. "Dracul" means "the Devil" in Romanian; he got his nickname after returning from the German wars with his battle flag which had a dragon painted on. The peasants thought it showed the Devil, hence the name. Tepes got his name from his rather cruel form of punishment ("Tepes" = approximately "The Impaler").
ANSWER: Vlad "The IMPALER" or better known as DRACULA
