He ruled: Son of Mircea cel Batran,[1] he was probably the last voievod of Wallachia to assert control of Banat and southern Basarabia.

His short intervals of rulership were marked by frequent and violent clashes with his rival and cousin, Dan II, for the throne of the principality.

His nickname, as appears in Slavonic writings (Praznaglava), could also be translated as "simple-minded", but the more likely meaning is ”void of hair (bald)”.

[2] He is considered an obscure ruler, which placed Wallachia under Ottoman suzerainty.
