The castle itself of Casterly Rock in the show is MASSIVE. Its the height of cliff it sits on that is lacking. If that castle was a cliff 2-3x higher then the Rock is 100% done justice.

@Sunbro Adresse It was said by Ned that 500 men in Winterfell can hold against a siege of 10,000 (assuming sufficient provisions). Theon took Winterfell because all the soldiers were off with Rob or at Torrhen's Square, and there were basically zero defenders. Jon took the castle from Bolton because Bolton was an idiot who wanted to show off and didn't just sit in the castle and let Jon try to scale the walls.

The Seven Kingdoms (apart from Dorne) tend to have more rural populations, in the East most lands away from the cities are quite dangerous or uninhabitable. Also the cities are mostly from Old Ghis or Valyria along with ancient remnants like Qarth and the 3 Bone Mountain cities-much older. Volantis alone predates Oldtown and has access to the Rhoyne, the Summer Sea and the Slaver Cities via the Valyrian roads.

I have always wondered why Oldtown was simultaneously the biggest city in Westeros forever until very recently when Kings Landing finally surpassed it AND it's located on the "WRONG" side of Westeros. GRRM got it right having the city being at the mouth of the biggest river in the region so it has both access to the sea for international trade and river based trade and transportation of the huge amounts of food the Reach is able to produce with their ability to plant crop and crop back to back for years during their supernaturally long summers. However, Oldtown is located on the side of Westeros facing away from Essos, the Summer Islands, the Free Cities (or Valyria for thousands of years), and all the other far eastern trade partners. I suppose that it was more important to be at the mouth of the Mander while any trade simply had to sail along the coast of Dorne for a little while to get there rather than being located in the East. Because of its location and the presence of black stone, I have a theory. I think that because of this being a world living in the wake of an apocalypse that happened long ago, that Oldtown was the home port and base for trade with Ashai TO THE WEST :0 Yes, the trade routes to the West could have been well known and the city being on the West coast was more convenient than the East because their trade with whatever used to be located in Ashaii annd Yi Ti was to the West. The trade fleets would load up on tons of supplies like food and wine and tradegoods in Oldtown, trade far to the West after a months long journey, then return with all the amazing goods they have there.

It’s not at the mouth of the Mander, but the Honeywine. It’s a bit silly. It should have been on the Mander like you said. However if you take an upside down map of Ireland you’ll see Oldtown is at the exact location of Belfast. Lannisport funnily enough shares location with Dublin. When George made his map he probably should have spent some time thinking about where the cities should have been based on geography and natural resources. Makes little sense that Oldtown is bigger than a settlement on the Mander if you ask me. But then again it grew around that old black tower that eventually became the white tower and its location was easier to defend against attacks from the Ironborn I suppose.

The Pro of living in those cities is White Harbor has good fish and clean. Oldtown has the maesters, education and trading seas. Lannisport is he best city of trade and luxuries goods. Gulttown is the best place that sells candle and good trade with free essos. The King's landing has the best whore-houses, goods trade with Pentos. The Cons of those westeros cities: White harbor is too cold. Lannisport is often attacked and sacked by Ironborn riaders, prices is too high. King's Landing is too populated and too smells horrible like Blackwater. Gulltown is boring and has not a good standards of living. Oldtown seems like the only good place to live, expect Euron Greyjoy is gonna attack there with his iron fleet, only in the books!

I think its similar to highgarden, because of sunspears location by a river on a vast desert, its mostly rural farmland with great manors down the river. Highgarden likely hspas more population than any of the cities, but because of thier massive fertile farms it is more spread out and rural instead of dense. Therfore highgarden might contain more people in its borders but has a very small metroploitan area.

The cities in Westeros are massive. Plenty of other towns, like Stoney Sept, Barrowton, and the Shadow City, would be considered cities by medieval standards . I seriously doubt any of the Free Cities are bigger then Kings Landing, except maybe Volabtis. Westeros is the largest and most owrfuk country in the world, and can support larger cities.

King's Landing has a population of about 500,000 as stated by Tyrion. The free cities are large and many live outside the city proper.

Westeros is a predominantly agriculture society. 90% of it's population live in a rural setting. The continent isn't large enough to support a massive rural population that could support a massive urban population like that of Essos.

The funny thing about the black cells in Kings Landing is, that they are the one of the very few underground prisons in fantasy that make sense. The thing is, if you put your prisoner into a room in the basement, all he needs to do to escape is getting one or two levels up and he is on the ground level with the exit of the building he is in. thats why prisons in the real medieval times were in the towers. they were in the top most rooms, so they had to make their way through the entire tower to escape. But in a world where dragons existed, all you need to do to free a prisoner would be to fly up there, smash a hole into the roof with the dragons tail or claws, mount the dragon and fly away. So yes, in such a world the Dungeon is more secure.

This is what annoyed me about got is that they don’t show us the size and population of Westeros. Dany can be seen travelling through huge cities around essos but we don’t even know their are any other towns until we see old town. Fans of asoiaf will know about these other cities because grrm actually cares about his world but d and d just care about the character. Which is good but we do need to know about the world in which they live.

Just because we are shown only a few cities in the show does not mean there arent more, actually there are quite a few, for example stony sept, burrow town and maidenpool are big cities, you compared freakishly huge cities, for example kings landing has over 1million people which is huge even for the real world in modern day, let alone in medieval times
