guaranda: Guaranda is the name of a canton and its capital city in the Province of Bolivar (Ecuador).
tizona: It is the name of one of the swords of the Cid Champion, according to literary tradition; although there are several weapons in different museums that in some case could be ( in whole or in part) the historical Tizona. Initially it was called Tizón, probably an allusion to the wood or burning coals of the forge where it was forged. The use as synonymous with sword is only in poetic form. See laundry ( sword ), babieca ( horse ) .
drácula: He is a fictional character, in a novel of the same name by the Irish writer Abraham "Bram" Stoker (1897), presented as a count from Transylvania who is actually a human vampire. The name is inspired by the nickname of a 15th-century historical character named Vlad III, "The Impaler", Prince of Wallachia (Romania), who while a cruel enemy of the Ottoman invaders and is said to have drunk their blood during meals, was not a vampire. The nickname "Impaler" earned it for the way he executes his prisoners; but that of "Dracula" is earlier, inherited from his father Vlad II, called Dracul (sometimes translated from Romanian as "the lucifer, the devil" ) or Draco ("dragon" in Latin, for being a prominent member of the Order of the Dragon), being then his diminutive Dracula : "the dragon" or "the son of the dragon". While Stoker's character was not the first literary vampire (see Carmilla) he became a model for other novels, films, series and video games to this day, as well as an adjective for any bloodsucker (exploiter).
