Dumb logic 😂😂😂 Even if Viserys had married Rhaenys and they didn't had any sons only daughters Viserys would have married Otto Hightowers daughter and still the same dance of dragon would have happened

Eventhough they don't mention this in the show, is quite evident in the scene from the great council that when this event happened, they both were already married.

I totally forgot all about Theon’s mom

Respectfully, you forgot a third solution in the question of who might be the ruling party. Rhaenys and Viserys could be co-rulers, sharing in authority equally. Given Viserys's personality, however, it's likely that even if she was a mere queen consort, Rhaenys would have been the real power behind the throne anyway.

Something tells me Boros isn't going to last long now that Varys is back in King's Landing

This video is awesome 😎 I love your content but this might be my favorite so far

Boros Blount was as cunty as the rest of his kin.

While I love Dotrice, I’m really struggling to even get through A Game of Thrones. Just knowing it gets harder to listen as it goes makes me feel like I wasted my money on ASOIAF books on Audible. 😞

Crazy that he died in just his 30s. He ascended to the throne even earlier than Jaehaerys I had. Imagine if he'd lived just as long as Jaehaerys had, he would have been the longest living monarch in Targaryan history, AND likely averted a lot of the problems that Daeron, Baelor and Aegon IV caused.

"Any boy whore with a sword could beat 3 Boros Blounts" -The Hound ... maybe

the thing that bothers me about GOT/ASOIAF nobility is the lack of titles or ranks beyond king or the wardenship of one of the 7 regions of westeros ... it feels incomplete

Viserys shouldve just let Daemon and Rhaenyra marry, or better, never had more children SONS no less with Alicent. Instead, he left Rhaenyra to the wolves and did fuck all. Rhaenyra's claim would've been stronger had she had "pure" Targaryen children (I love her Strong Sons bt we can't deny they complicated things). We can understand Viserys not trusting his favorite child with his rogue of a brother, but it was the best option than literally anything he had ever done as king.

For the Lord Commander & his dog!!! For every brother who took the oath & for filled it!! Brother Bittersteel the Ale & Wine are on me, Where are the GIRLS!!!! Some Dornish & ladies from Lys!!! Ahhhhh Yes Another house from the crownlands!! Great content mi’lord

1st to take the Black for House Blackfyre🗡 What a fan favorite house.

Obrigado por colocar legendas para outros países, adoro seus vídeos 😊

It's going to be funny to watch Aemond (actually) get skull fu*ked with Dark Sister

Imagine being a North an ready to die in battle. Suddenly there is no war and you decide to move to the Riverlands and shack up with some widow or head off to Essos.

First to take the Black 🖤

Even if by some miracle Boros won here, nothing changes. He never could beaten Cregan Stark’s army in the field, especially after the losses he would have sustained after the first battle.

I can't wait to see this adapted. It looks like baela is going to be there on moondancer i hope they have her arriving late and don't make the dragon flight 2 on 2. The whole point of Aegon and sunfyres injuries was that meleys would've won an encounter with either 1v1 or with both had she had an assist. Baela watching her grandmother die while rhaenyra sits on dragon Stone would be cool to add a rift between her and her stepmother

Isn't Aemma also a grand daughter of Jaherys!!

i found it a crime to not mention rhaena targaryen,elder sister of king jahaerys I's stories about dragonstone sidenote: your checker triple-headed dragon sigil is neat as fuck

I first heard about them in a theory video about young griff. The theorist said that rennifer long waters might be working with Varys as the blackfyres had Velaryon ancestry

Yo, i noticed a clear cut between the second and third chapters where the video plays, then black, then the next chaper starts playing, it's minor but am just so used to it all being seemless that something like that was something i quickly noticed.

Honestly it was all Aemon's fault for not having more children with Jocelyn, like dude you're the heir, you have one fucking job and that is to have a son. What were you doing for 22 years?

Am I wrong in thinking that Aegon the Conqueror's "Dream" as told in HOTD but not in any book thus far published, went completely skew whiff? It would seem that his idea of just giving this secret to only the next presumed person in the line of succession didn't work at all well as the tree branched far wider than he could have ever imagined and his "dreams" didn't reveal that or that the Maesters would actively suppress "magic". It is indeed a very tangled web GRRM has weaved, so tangled he is still trying to push his way through those webs.

(Reads title) Me: they should’ve gotten together anyways?! 🗣️✨

This would have happened if Corlys didn’t pursue rhaenys or was already betrothed to one of Jaehaerys and alysanne’s daughters. Viserys and rhaenys are only 2 years apart anyways. Daemon and aemma can marry (they’re much closer in age so aemma won’t marry so young)

David Lightbringer presented a really interesting theory from The World of Ice and Fire that House Hightower, Velaryon, and Dayne were all the remnants of the Great Empire of the Dawn and went to Westeros as refugees from the Bloodstone emperor. He also asserts that Asshai-by-the-Shadow is actually the wasteland left over from this emperor's blood magic which brought destruction upon his empire and brought on the Long Night.

You know, if they do Fire&Blood part 2 or a show about the Blackfire rebellions Maekar would be just as liked as Stannis at least in my opinion.

It doesn't make much sense that the targaryens lost Sure taking the mountains probs to hard But the "urban" areas along the coast would be dirt easy. Ethnicity cleanse the roynar and repopulate the area with a new population Dragons keep you safe Soldiers hold the city Ships keep you feed and trade In reality the dornish would loose

Ima guess that the targaryens didn't have alot of soldiers due to the other lords not seeing much worth in controlling desert The dragons would of done most of the heavy lifting However I'm surprised they were able to resist as famine would have lead to a massive depopulation of the region. Easily 50% killed

Can u do a complete history of Robert’s rebellion and the Greyjoy rebellion?

I think an interesting series of videos to see would be outlining and exploring the different princesses of the books main series. So much iconography is focused on the kings, but i do think there should be some more in depth focus on the queens and princesses as well. Granted you have already gone over many of them in other videos, so it would be hard to make the series feel different. Still tho, an interesting idea i wanted to share

“No one can lay in the mud [and feign unconsciousness] like I can.” -Daeron the drunk, (close enough)

Another great series

You spelled "Complete" wrong in the thumbnail

Love this era of the Targs

The only king of Aenys line i respect

I’m so glad he was further explored in the Dunk and Egg books. He was a skilled warrior and a loyal defender of his family. His main shortcoming seems to be that he was a hard man who neglected his children because of his own shortcomings emotionally, but he wasn’t heartless. After the disaster of the Ashford tourney he realized he had to take his family in order. He exiled Aerion to Essos for a few years, did his best by Egg by honoring his request to squire with Duncan, and seems to have even tried to help Daeron by arranging a marriage and mentoring him more directly-although it was already too late if it was possible to help a man so tormented by visions at all. When he took the crown he kept a firm hold on the realm after all the unrest and discontent under his brother’s reign.

Why didn't Aegon and Rhaenyra marry for the same reason?

He was a great king a fine warrior and a overall upgrade Stannis Baratheon.

For the watch . First ranger brother steel your grace great content as always !!!

Maekar is one of my favorite underrated Targaryens. I really like his personality, reminds me of stannis. I wish he didnt kill Baelor Breakspear but he is still cool. Also his crown is one of my favorites.

So it's about two week later than planned but another long video covering the reign of King Maekar. This was a nightmare to render, kept getting stuck at 60% for some reason but figured it out in the end. I've added in a few minutes of content that was cut from the original series towards the end that i cut from a few episodes of the main serise, felt like it added good context.
