The Man They Named Dracula The city learned his name the way people learn about storms-after the damage. No one could remember the first rumor clearly. Only the aftermath. A man who lost his company overnight and began speaking to walls. A politician whose career collapsed so perfectly it looked voluntary. A judge who resigned with shaking hands, refusing every interview, as if words themselves had become dangerous. People searched for blood. There was none. No corpses. No headlines clinging to scandal. Just absence. Hollow spaces where certainty used to live. Someone joked once, nervously, that the man behind it all must be Dracula. The name stuck because it explained the sensation-not death. Exsanguination. He drained people of what made them solid. I didn't believe it at first. I believed in patterns, in data, in the arrogance of men with too much power. Then I met him. He didn't arrive like a villain. No theatrics. No cruelty performed for attention. He walked into the room as if he had always belonged there. I introduced myself first. He let me. That should have warned me. "You've heard my name," he said, not a question. "Yes," I replied. "Everyone has." "Then you know the stories are exaggerated." Silence makes most men uncomfortable. It did not touch him. "They think I destroy people," he continued. "That I enjoy it." "You don't?" I asked. He tilted his head slightly, a quiet recalculation. "I enjoy precision. What people lose is incidental." That was when I understood why they called him Dracula.

This work is written by Kindeley. The text is about the devistating impacts the European colonization had on the Native Americans ,and some of the long-term effect to this day. These effects were caused by a number of factors including loss of land, diseases, attempts to force Indians to give up their religion and beliefs, and laws, which violated Native American culture. The cover of this work is not mine. It is from Pendleton Woolen Mills UK, but the work itself is mine. It is for educational purpose only and if you wish to share feel free to do so, however it will be reported if copied. I hope you learn a lot, in hope it will give you different perspective. The Native Americans are underappreciated, which deeply breaks my heart.
