What was Abdur Rahman Khan's other epithet aside from The Iron Amir?

  • The Bronze Leader

  • The Dracula Amir

  • The Magnificent

  • The Great Conqueror

Answer

The sobriquet "Dracula Amir" arose from Abdur Rahman Khan's reputation for impaling adversaries as a means of instilling fear and maintaining control during his reign as the Emir of Afghanistan from 1880 to 1901. This gruesome practice, reminiscent of the infamous Vlad the Impaler, earned him this moniker.
