The fact that the entire franchise takes place mostly on Westeros when there is an entire continent 3x its size... the possibility of other stories is limitless. Even though it would never happen, I would love to see George write a story about Yi Ti or one of the other eastern parts of Essos. Could even CGI some Wyrms or Wyverns since Dragons are not the only "mythical" creatures in the GOT universe.

No it is realistic. It is all down to the geography of seas and rivers. Language stayed stable because the peoples could easily move and were not hemmed in by geography. The reason why European splintered is due to the fact it is several independent regions separated by geography. The romans are an example of a powerful culture that could not break out of the Mediterranean Sea region.

It has been brought up a lot already by people but I'm fascinated by how GRRM incorporated and drew inspiration from the real life migrations into Britain into the story. Not everything matches 1:1 but the First Men are the initial Celtic migrations into Britain from continental Europe. The Andals draw a parallel to the Germanic migrations of the Anglos, Saxxons, and Jutes who brought English into Britain and pushed the Celts into corners. Targaryens draw inspirations from multiple sources but Aegon's Conquest = Norman's Conquest and their relationships to the rest of the population seems similar to that of the French aristocrats to the rest of Britain. But some have also commented on the fact that some parts seem to have taken inspiration from the Roman Empire and other dynasties. The rest of the world are very clearly inspired from real geography (free cities = city states of Italy, eastern parts of Essos = China, Dothraki = Mongols etc.) but I find the British migrations part fascinating since it plays into the story more. Would've been cool if the North spoke an entirely different language (like any of the Celtic languages) but I think the heavy, thick Northern accent does justice in its place.
@mikeburke7053
@mikeburke7053 12 күн бұрын
You are skipping the Iron Islands. The "Iron Born" are another ethnic group besides the Celts, Anglo Saxons and Norman invaders that make up the population of the British Isles. The Ironborn are the vikings who established settlements and also mixed into the populations that became modern GB and Ireland. "Would've been cool if the North spoke an entirely different language" They did. The "Old Tongue" in ASOIF. Spoken North of the wall (Hadrian's wall). Gaelic languages. What many people miss, is that the entire story was a retelling of history and literature. Westeros was a retelling of the Medieval, Essos was a retelling of Antiquity, and North of the Wall was a retelling of Lord of the Rings. The main medieval story was the War of the Roses, but other medieval stories are within it (High Sparrow as St Francis Assisi, Berric Dondarion, Thoros of Myr, and the Brotherhood without banners as Robin Hood, Friar Tuck and the Merry men, Lanisters as Borgia's, etc.. etc.) The main Antiquity story was Daenarys as Cleopatra with Antiquity within (Targaryans as Ptolemy's, Qarth as Athens falling into tyranny, Valyria as Rome, etc. etc.) Every character was based upon history and literature, often with the heroes and villains flipped. Arya was the toughest for me to figure out. She was a compilation of mankind's greatest villains retold as hero. She was Puck from Midsummernights dream in the Lady Crane affair. She was Atreus vs Theyestes with Frye She was the Cyclops vs. Odysseus with Jaquen. She was The Morrigan (Goddess of death) vs. Cuchalainn The Hound of Ulster She was the big bad wolf vs. Little Red Riding Hood (Red woman) She was Cain vs. Abel (The waif) etc., etc. GRRM drew from a lot more than migrations. The War of the Roses ended the medieval (into modernity). Cleopatra was the end of the Roman Republic (into the Roman Empire), LOTR was the end of the age of magic (and the age of man begins.) Above is less than 10% of the stories that were retold. Winnie the Pooh was in the story, so were Muppets, Tyrion was Henry the VII, Octavian, and Giovanni Borgia, Sansa was Elizabeth of York and Sancha Borgia. The thin man was the begin of Genoese shipping insurance and the Iron Bank was Venetian bookkeeping and the Bodkin Point was the weapon that ended medieval warfare. etc.etc.etc.

The Riverlands are their own region, but when Aegon conquered them, their king was the king of the Iron Islands.

Essos seems huge but you wouldn't think it seeing as how Daenerys seems to always be in one part of the continent one day and then she's on the other by the next week even without her dragons.

So basically G.R.R. recreated the world map, with Westeros being North and South Americas - the "New World" where everyone migrated to, the Free Cities - various European countries, Valyria - Italy (fallen Roman Empire), and even the Asian steppes with Mongols (Jogos Nhai), China (Yunkai) and Japan (secretive Ashai) are where they should be.

I think Valyria is analogous to Atlantis.

I believe he enlarged Britain to become Westeros and moved it from the north to where America is, but no Americans are actually present. North Wall is actually a Hadrian wall, with Scots being free folk and the War of Roses being the Hightower vs Targaryen fight (house of dragon storyline). Eurasia has being traslated to Essos condenced with mongol, China everything else + some of the mediterranean.

Doubt it. The wall is inspired by Hadrians Wall in the British Isles. The Celtics where considered "wild barbarians" by the Romans. The British Isles were also multiple kingdoms that were eventually united into one.

Woah I didn't realized how big is the worldbuilding of this world. I thought Westeros was the only map it has. I hope we can explore those other locations in future Game of Thrones spin-off series.

There are theories that myths of this world are like myths in real world, they're not telling exactly what happened and the real reason why Arm of Dorne was broken was a natural disaster, that demolished a lot of places in the world. There's a reason why Pyke is as it is, why Neck is a very tight pass etc
