Vlad III the Impaler. Vlad is best known for the legends of the exceedingly cruel punishments he imposed during his reign, and consequently serving as the inspiration for the vampire main character in Bram Stoker's popular Dracula novel.
The name Dracula is derived from his father's title Dracul and means "Son of the Dragon".
He was the Prince of Wallachia, a former polity which is now part of Romania, Vlad was referred to as Dracula in a number of documents of his times, mainly the Transylvanian Saxon pamphlets and The Annals of Jan Długosz.

if you`re referring to Prince Vlad the Impaler then he lived in Transylvania( it`s a part of Romania). But if your referring to the vampire someone else said it Dracula is a fictional character so he lived in a book.
