Some guy made this all up. If you remove the dragons this could be legitimately confused with a real history

I’m currently at 0:01 of the video and the answer is already the Greyjoys

Was conquered by the Targaryens = Everyone else Was not conquered by the Targaryens = House Martell For that reason alone, Martell should be number 2 after the Targaryens

I feel like the Martells are way too low on your list. Being the only ones that could fight the targaryens and win should bump them up a lot

You say the andals founded six kingdoms but dorne, the iron islands were never considered "Andal Kingdoms" and the riverlands was never independent since being conquered by the Andals.

5:23 House Lannister is NOT of first men origin. First Men names are easy to identify because they’re simple and descriptive. Stark, Strong, Umber, Glover. Andal names are more complex and unique like Lannister, Mormont, and Baratheon.

I would disagree with the Martells while yes their rule is not as long as the houses above them i think consodering that 1 they managed to remained unconquered by the Targs and 2 kept their kingdom together even when under constant threat from without and internal animosity by the likes of the ironwoods i think they defenetly deserve their seat. I would put higher than Aryns and perhaps equal to the lanisters

A better more interesting period than the dance of the dragons~ waiting for your hate comments bite me

Aenys would have won the council over and we would have had a Blackfyre dynesty

I can't help but think you are Dutch because of your accent.

It's hard to argue against your list. Longevity ruling, feat of valor and combat are the correct criteria to list the houses.

If you’re not just a show viewer, and you know the story… Explain how that was handed down from one king to the next, with the succession issues?? Nonsense again.

The prophecy stuff from HotD is the absolute worst addition and didn't need to be there at all.

I would have like to see Varamyr Sixskins on screen as well even though he's a minor character, he could've given great insight on the magic of the World of Ice and Fire.

I actually think Fake-Aegon is Lyanna and Raegar's son. Since there's too much weirdness involving Ashara Dayne and Ned Stark. George R R Martin once said: Words are wind. Raegar has no legacy, none whatsoever, I believe Raegar is a mummer's dragon. He's not the real dragon.

Good video but one discrepancy. The Targaryans were not the only Valarians left. Many from throughout the Free Cities have the blood as well.

Great video. Good length, propper warnings, and alot of info non-biok readers likely didnt know about someone who olays such a central role to the overall movement of the story. I completeIy agree based off what ive learned of bloddraven today. I understand a whole lot more about bloodraven and the things he did and why. Without bloodraven, the prophecy likely wouldn't have made it to present day. He had to so things he likely didnt want to do to make a certain timeline happen to lead to the ultimate end. I just hope at the end he doesnt turn out to be the real villain and not the night king. The show got so much wrong, but what Martin told em was that Bran would be king. So in the end, the 3 eyed crow will be king. Who really is the 3 eyed crow? He could have been some magic user thats been planting these dreams into Targaryans the whole time. Made Danny the dreamer have her dream, bring the Targaryen's to dragonstone, and then hire the faceless men to kill the fire mages to bring about the doom of Valeria, thus validating the Targaryen "dreaming ability" so Aegon would believe his. Then after the prophecy was lost, bloodraven was lead by the 3 eyed crow(like Bran is) to do the things he must to travel north, and give his younger body to the 3 eyed crow so he could live on, and on till the time came where the proper Bran was there and his body could be taken over and finally, the 3 eyes crow becomes king of the seven kingdoms. Hell it could be one of the original children of the forest green dreamers that had the ultimate long term plan to get control of their lands back. Who the hell knows cause damn Martin wont finish the damn books!

Ill take a tyrell over a TULLY any day They cant even seem to stop shit in their OWN LANDS House Tyrel atleast knows how to pick & choose their battles while simultaneously feeding the realm

Aegon is a targaryean too so it works for him on the throne too

“…whom the lords and ladies of Westeros considered half a peasant, himself” is one of my favorite lines from the entire supportive texts. It says so much about their views of succession because they’ll start a war over male primogeniture, or not. It’s all a frickin game.

You should do a video on how bloodraven isn’t actually the 3 eyed crow in the books 😭

Great vid! I'm a mod for several asoiaf-related channels. May I post a link to this vid/your channel during our next Livestreams? It makes sense that at least one Targ in every generation would know the "family secret" and BR is the type that was both willing and able to assume the role of 3ER. I'm curious to know how he "knew" to go North, to plug into the WWs, as opposed to going East, or perhaps even the Citadel to seek out magical knowledge. Allowing himself to be "sent to the Wall" seems like a cover story, as much as anything. Cheers!

I really don't like the dream thing. It was much better when Aegon conquered westeros just because he wanted to conquer it imo

He went to the writers so he coupd burn the script for season 8,

Awesome vids man best wishes!!!

I think he found something in the scrolls or the catspaw.

Booooo Bloodraven!!!!

He at least was aware of the "Prince that was promised" prophecy, and some connection to the north and house Stark. Good video.

Great vídeo

Another great video!

Love the content my friend. Keep up the good work.

The greyjoys were just shitty pirates.

Aegon let the ironborn have a kingsmoot and the Greyjoys were literally elected as the lords, I don't see how they're not top3 in this list

"How many eyes does Lord Bloodraven have? A thousand eyes, and one"

Stark was more deserving of the number 1 spot, they were there first and outlived the Targs.

Lmao its so obvious that you're a native dutch speaker, i never saw a video of yours, this was the first one and my first thought was "hee verek een nederlander !?" W vid btw

It will be fun if Danny is resurrected ,

Can't disagree with the list! What I disagree is about the words chosen on House Tyrell. They were always close to power in the Reach and administered Highgarden for centuries or milliennias. It was implied they were the power behind the oaken throne on the time of weak Gardener kings and once a Tyrell restored the royal power to the Gardeners, defeating Peake and Manderly pretenders. In other words, they have been ruling the country alongside the Gardeners, something a few other great houses haven't done it before Aegon the Conqueror elevated them. Perhaps they could be ahead of the Tullies. I also would put the Martells higher up. While the Starks or Lannister lost their crowns, the Martells never lost theirs, not even to the Targaryens.

Lannister

There's no Africa and game of thrones lol. Don't off yourself. It's all fantasy

The iron isles are a part of the north under the starks, they were never their own constituent region under the targaryens, neither were the greyjoys ever a great house

Idk which house is the less deserving, probs the Tully, but to me the most deserving are the Martell. They kept the independency of Dorne for almost 200 years. Also they are descendants of Queen Nymeria. Oh, do you remember that time a vassal of the Martells revolted and almost overthrew them? Yeah, me neither. They inspire respect and loyalty to their subjects. Their inheritance system is also just superior, granting their kingdom always has several valid heirs and 0 risk of extinction due to lack of male children. Their only sin is Prince Doran being a man of peace being caught in the biggest civil war since the Dance.

All valid and logical.

As long as martin is in the writers room and has final say Im hopeful. Whenever someone else tries to write in this universe and their writing is held up against a master story teller like martin it is like black and white. It just makes the bad writing that much more obvious when it is side by side with the original story.

The Targaryens deserved power the least. They had dragons, they had the Seven Kingdoms and all they had to do was not fuck things up. Wouldn't you know, they fucked it up losing both the dragons and the Seven Kingdoms in the process. 😂 Also this list has gone from who deserves power the least to who ruled the longest. Dude unironically put the Ironborn above the Chad Baratheons

During TWOTFK Catelyn saw Edmure bringing in a bunch of peasants into the walls of Riverrun. She knew in the event of a siege, these extra mouths to feed would decrease the time the castle could hold out for. When she asked him about it he said *_"These are my people and they were afraid"_* If that does not make House Tully the most worthy House I don't know what will

The ironborn were absolutely pathetic in the show

I think that house Tyrell should be above the iron borne, and the iron borne should only be above house Tully, who should be in last.

Tully's did some crazy speedrun. From being the least significant house before Aegon conquest to Hoster Tully being the grandfather of king Bran and queen Sansa. Also Edmure Tully is still the paramount of the Trident.

The wokifying of ASoIaF is one of the worst things that prevents me from caring about new Thrones media
