        Well there was some embellishment, naturally.
        Historically, when Draco died his bones actually remained behind and they were used later in the 19th century to construct a massive hydraulic spider that was used to attack president Ulysses S. Grant during the union of the Transcontinental railroad.

          I can't stop laughing at this.

            really? i heard Draco turned feral before he died and was found sleeping under ground in London. He almost brought the worlds population to extinction. It took a bald Matthew McConaughey and a half starved Christian Bale to take him out McConaughey was his last meal shame

              This was quite obviously a documentary.

                  I heard they found Draco's DNA in a fossilized mosquito and are using it to genetically engineer him on some remote island in the Pacific Ocean

                            See I thought Draco's bones were put in the Smithsonian next to T-Rex.

                              Didnt you know? Braveheart fashioned Draco's shinbone into a hilt for his sword? The very same which he used to fight Wellington at the Battle of Waterloo?

                                I believe that once he "died" Draco can back in human form and became known as James Bond

                                  Yes it's based on a event that happened in the 1930's but they decided to move the story to medieval times instead.

                                      I think the OP meant like true events as in a legend like King Arthur?

                                        No. I'm fairly certain there is no historical value of any kind in this story. The castle and surrounding kingdom might as well have been Generia, Vaguengland.

                                          From what I recollect, Draco was later reincarnated as the Malfoy's son in Harry Potter.
