This is HBO getting its moneys worth. Probably sold these for 100 quid a pop as a special feature on a dvd boxset. I do wonder what percentage of this goes back to them as royalties? I mean if your an actor for a show you expect to do promotion material does this count? So maybe they don't get diddly squat for the effort. These are great but I doubt there is any incentive now for anyone to make more. Maybe House of the Dragon guys get a go now they are tied up in contracts for it. But do they even make DVDs anymore? Remember when a DVD was like a fucking game? The menus were one big Easter egg for the film and fun to navigate. Remember physical media. Head cleaners? Remember needing them? My 5 year old found an old VHS tape of mine the other day and lost his fucking mind at the concept.
@ubed nizamani I disagree. They were high profile and kind of exciting, but if Starks had somehow begun sitting the Iron Throne, there wouldn’t have been the nonsense that went of with Baratheons. Sense and stability would reign.
Literally every house in westeros: we try to develop, become history and build a legacy for our future succesors. Targaryens: I’m about to end this man’s whole career.
Why wouldn't they do it? I mean as an actor, why wouldn't you want to be part of a world famous show like Game of Thrones? Most actors will go their entire careers without ever even auditioning for a part as tremendous as a part in this show. It can open the door for all sorts of other things too. You'd be a fool not to play your part as well as they required.

@Gavin HOTD is off to a great start. It's very ambitious and I think it will do the books justice, unlike the last season of GoT. I have high hopes for this series. I like it so far
Seems like the show completely removed Robert’s Targaryen blood. In the books, Robert’s grandmother was Rhaelle Targaryen, youngest daughter of King Aegon V the Unlikely. Rhaelle was Daenerys’ aunt, making her and Robert second-cousins. The Baratheons intermarried with the Targaryens on two other occasions as well. 1. Lord Rogar Baratheon, grandson of Orys One-hand (Aegon the conqueror’s bastard brother), married his cousin Aenys’ widow Alyssa Velaryon. Alyssa had Targaryen blood. 2. Rogar and Alyssa’s daughter Jocelyn Baratheon married prince Aemon, eldest son and heir to king Jaehaerys I the wise and good queen Alysanne. They had one daughter, Rhaenys.

1. The North : Stark 2. The Riverlands : Tully 3. The Iron Islands : Greyjoy 4. The Westerlands : Lannister 5. The Stormlands : Baratheon 6. The Reach : Tyrell 7. The Vale : Arryn 8. Dorne : Martell Let this stay here for whoever forgets the Seven (should be Eight) Kingdoms and their ruling houses frequently like I do.
The Iron Islands were a part of the Kingdom of Rivers and Isles, the same kingdom as the Riverlands. There were only 7 kingdoms when Aegon became king.
There was: 1: King of the Isles and Rivers (The Iron of Islands): led by King Harren The Black 2: Kingdom Of The Storm (The Storm Lands): Led by Storm King Argilac Durrandon (The Arrogant) 3: Kingdom of The Reach (The Reach): Led by Mern IX Gardener 4: Kingdom of The Rock (The Westerlands): Led by Loren Lannister (The Last) 5: Kingdom of The Mountains And Vale (The Vale): Led by Ronnel Arryn (The King Who Flew) 6: Dorne (Dorne): Led by Meria Martell (The Yellow Toad Of Dorne) 7: Kingdom Of The North (The North): Led by Torrhen Stark (The King Who Knelt) So there were seven by the time Aegon came
@Develyn Seether it doesn't matter, that was why it was called the 7 kingdoms, for the same reason no one counts the Crownlands as one of the kingdoms and why dorne is counted amongst the kingdoms despite only bending the knee a century after the conquest
It's interesting that the Targaryen kings claimed kingship over the andals, the rhoynar, and the first men - despite not belonging to any of these factions/races being valyrian themselves.
House Martell of Dorne is the most liberated and civilized house and was probably the only house that had respectful values and dignity. No wonder they didn’t fall under Targaryens when every other house did.
@Hi Daßer he let his emotions cloud his thinking .. ...but seriously, fuck all that dancing around shyt, he should have just Killed him, said the hell with Kings landing, got back to dorne and started plotting and planning a siege on Kings Landing

To be fair, the only impregnable fortress that was conquered by force was Harrenhall, and quite honestly the only thing ever built by men that might have survived Balerion's fire is the Wall. Every one of the conquered houses in Westeros that claimed to have an impregnable fortress either lost in the field where their walls meant nothing, or capitulated to spare the lives of their people. Only the most arrogant lords would gamble their lives and their family's future to put their walls to the test.
@Jennifer Brewer To be fair, that's a line that only exists in the show. As it's described in the books you could throw a thousand Bronns against the Eyrie and less than a hundred defenders could hold it indefinitely. Short of dragon fire or an army of the dead, the Eyrie would hold.
I'm so mad that they completely ignored the Reed's in the show. They didn't explain their story at all, killed Jojen when he's clearly an important character, made Meera vanish after season 7 and never really showed Howland (except for the ''flashback'' Bran had). That's so disappointing.
2:30 = It's a shame that Viserys didn't survive the very first season as I would've loved to have witness his reaction to finding out that there is in fact a 3rd person in Westeros who not only has Targaryen blood in him but is also in fact the actual rightful ruler of The 7 Kingdoms instead of him (Viserys)
@Chaimae ⵣ Rhealla crowned viserys because she assumed that all rheagars children were dead, no one gives a shit about what the mad king did, it's why Robert fears his children because their claim is stronger than his, the only thing Robert achieved with his rebellion is that anyone with a large enough army can claim the iron throne...no right to rule just conquest
@Chaimae ⵣ we don't know if Jon is a bastard or not, there is no evidence to prove he is or isn't, when rheagar died his legitimate sons come before his siblings, it's part of the reason why Dany is fucked if people will actually believe Young Griff is Aegon.
@Nicholas so as viserys lol Rhaegar died before Aerys so literally the throne went to viserys . Plus there's no way that jon is a legitimate child they made it in the show bcz they cut off young griff the real Aegon
First of all This is just the show version they make jon the rightful heir because they had cut off an important character called young griff the real Aegon Targaryen . Secondly viserys had the better than any of Rhaegar's children simply because when Rhaegar died the mad king desinherited Rhaegar's children and named viserys his heir . He even had been crowned by his mother Rhaella in dragonstone . Finaly Robert Baratheon dethroned the targaryens so in that point the rightful heir by all means is stannis Baratheon
this is awesome. the actors who portrayed their characters have narrated their respective houses. Harry Lloyd for Targaryen, Richard Madden for stark, Charles Dance for Lannister, Mark Addy for Baratheon, Michael for Bolton etc
+Sarah Souayah cat's sister lysa is lady arryn by her marriage to jon arryn. Since Michelle is a major character till season 3, they would've told her to do house arryn
I love how nearly all the noble houses are related to eachother by some close or distant relative or ancestor. Obviously the reasons are because of political alliances (through produced heirs), but every major house in Westoros has literally f**ked eachother at some point throughout the last 300 years following Aegon's conquest, with the Targaryen's and Martell's being the most politically promiscuous. Take Jon Snow for example. Although he's half Targaryen and half Stark, his great grandfather (Jaehaerys II) was half Blackwood, his great, great grandfather (Aegon V) was half Dayne and his great, great, great grandfather was half Martell (Maekar I), and his ancestor Rhaenyra's Targaryen was half Arryn. And that's merely the lineage of a single main character from a noble house lol

Emily Ingram Despite how much I love Oberyn and the history of Dorne, I don't want them to seek out their petty vengeance. They kill the innocent Lannister girl as well as their prince and king, who had seen the devastation that war can cause and tried to keep his country safe. However, (based on the show, I haven't read the books), apparently he didn't really heed the will of the Dornish, who desired vengeance against the Lannisters. Interesting this reminds me of how the anime Fate/Zero explored a king who saved/serves the people vs a king who leads/gets served by his people.
Technically House Tyrell isn't extinct in the show either. Olenna and Margery commented on all of the cousins they have. Even if they're not from the mainline, there are probably other Tyrells wandering the Reach. Also, considering how everything in Dorne works, I wouldn't be surprised if the Sand Snakes were A. naturalized to become Martells B. allowed to give their male heirs the last name Martell, thus continuing the line. (Hoping they don't all die soon)

The whole story of Ice and Fire is centered around Targaryens lol. Every house is like, I... then Aegon Targaryen....three headed dragons... we rebelled the Targaryen dynasty.... bent the knee and wasn’t burned... Targaryens dragon fire forged the Iron Throne, Red Keep was built by Targaryens... etc.

Pretty much; poor writing skills, for a foreign invader to take quick hold of a country; the state of that country already has to be a mess. I can't believe the writers portrayed Westris a a peaceful euphoria taken over by barbaric invaders. Westros would have been far from that and the foreign invaders would have been far from barbaric.
@M ar I like how she freed much of Essos and was headstrong and lead it into a better prosperity, yet you still somehow hate her to the point you'd be excited to see her die? All the way up to Season 6, she's been amazing, Season 7 was a bit of a mixed bag with her surrounding people. Season 8... well, she's not the only one who was made stupid in Season 8

So Little Finger was in RiverRun & left after he healed. Brandon had left to join his family. Lyanna and Rhaegar left the river lands and I believe ran into LittleFinger who then knew Brandon would react. He waited until he got to the fingers to write a letter to Cat who then tore it up without reading it. This is why he said it was built on a lie and why gave that look to Sansa in the crypts when she said Rhaegar raped her aunt. Lyanna prob thought he was joining the wedding party. I think Lysas son is his- a weak, meak boy

Has anyone looked at the theory that the Starks did roll over they just realized that the dragons could keep back the long night hence giving up the kingship.
Wow.. You know, when you watch all of these stories you realize that each house compliments eachother in their own way. Now if everybody could just get along, there'd be no reason to fight for a "throne".. Sadly, the same can almost be said of our own world and each country. *shrugs*
36:30 I always had the thought that the northerners respected the cranagmen as the viscous guards of the neck 39:00 the vale was the most fertile kingdoms being river-valleys
39:30 - Aiden Gillen, might as well call him Liam Neeson mk.2, can never quite regulate the Irish accent, much like in the show too where he seemed to sound increasingly more Irish as the series progressed. Though I'd honestly argue that I personally think Gillen is the better actor.
Dorne never bowed. They annexed into the seven kingdoms rather peacefully and could never be conquered because of the guerilla tactics they used. Even with dragons.
Harry Lloyd reads for House Targaryen Richard Madden and Isaac Hempstead Wright read for House Stark Charles Dance reads for House Lannister Mark Addy reads for House Baratheon Natalie Dormer reads for House Tyrell Michelle Fairley reads for House Arryn Pedro Pascal reads for House Martell Clive Russell reads for House Tully Michael McElhatton reads for House Bolton Michelle Fairley reads for House Frey Rory McCann reads for House Clegane Ellie Kendrick reads for House Reed Aidan Gillan reads for House Baelish
House Velaryon? The most underated house in history? They legit were the MOST influential house after Targaryen untill their fall (Targaryens at some major wars were reliant on Velaryon military power, wealthiest house in Westeros). Also had the rare valyrian looks. And to top all of that, Lord Corlys Velaryon was the greater version of Tywin Lannister (aged death, unkillable, saved Targaryen dynasty in Blacks and Greens war, rode a dragon, his father started the King's guard). This house topped every house except for Targaryen and you're telling me they're not worthy any credit or special mentions in any of the official video content?? Starks - honorable dudes, Lannisters - sneaky rich pricks, Arryns - fancy knights, Tully - budget knights and Martells were pretty badass so I won't mock them
THE OLD, THE TRUE, THE BRAVE ♡ It's such a shame there were no Velaryons in the show, even a mention... They left out many "minor" houses, even when houses like the Velaryons, Hightowers, Wyls, etc. had more achievements and interesting histories.
@Maritza Piccarillo "the only Cunts to hype it up" You do realize the entire book series is called A Song of Ice and Fire? Return of Dragons and of The Others.. They kept mentioning how this Winter will be a long one, how no one truly remembers because it's been such a long summer. They have a phrase for those who haven't seen a winter. Don't play dumb and just ignore all the foreshadowing. That actually comes true. The payoff was just shit.
Your video truly truly connects all the houses with respect to their views of what is going on with regards to the history... how did you get the actors to narrate your video?! I am so impressed! 💕
Robert was my favourite character in the first book. My love for him was cemented when Jamie Lannister lost his tilt and couldn't get his helmet off. Robert was the one laughing the loudest and longest
Read the books They cut arianne martell one of the badass females of all time And Doran martell the masterplan is still alive and up to do something great !
I think the Roose Bolton from the tv show is 1,000 more fiendish, cunning, abhorrent, and dreadful than the depiction of him in the book. I thought the actor did a really good job in his interpretation of Roose Bolton.
i find it amazing that these were voiced by the actual actors of the show- so much talent :0
i didn’t even pick up on it i harry loyd said “My father areys” i shot up and said OH! WAIT!
ehhh
This is HBO getting its moneys worth. Probably sold these for 100 quid a pop as a special feature on a dvd boxset.
I do wonder what percentage of this goes back to them as royalties? I mean if your an actor for a show you expect to do promotion material does this count?
So maybe they don't get diddly squat for the effort. These are great but I doubt there is any incentive now for anyone to make more.
Maybe House of the Dragon guys get a go now they are tied up in contracts for it. But do they even make DVDs anymore?
Remember when a DVD was like a fucking game? The menus were one big Easter egg for the film and fun to navigate. Remember physical media.
Head cleaners? Remember needing them? My 5 year old found an old VHS tape of mine the other day and lost his fucking mind at the concept.

Roberts rebellion would be even better.
@ubed nizamani I disagree. They were high profile and kind of exciting, but if Starks had somehow begun sitting the Iron Throne, there wouldn’t have been the nonsense that went of with Baratheons. Sense and stability would reign.

Besides the on/reeks prick that was shipped back to the iron islands to his sister and dad.
😂
You can say whatever you want, but I think that the actor of Viserys has a very nice voice.
Indeed. Fun fact: he’s a great grandson of master storyteller Charles Dickens. Runs in the genes, perhaps.
Well if we can say what we want then.
"I for one couldn't give a Tinkers fig"
I've got a great voice too
It's a character to any actor, that makes such a hated character
The actress who plays catelyn I love love her but she whit sounds like she got throat cancer
Literally every house in westeros: we try to develop, become history and build a legacy for our future succesors.
Targaryens: I’m about to end this man’s whole career.
House Martell: *Kills dragon and Targaryen army, refuses to elaborate further*
Robert Baratheon: Are you sure about that? *holding his warhammer menacingly*

@SAMYUKTHA SRIKANTH so what do you think of HOTD?
Mess with the Martells and get stung.
house of dragons is currently being produced:)
@Maynard's Spaceship no, but in springish 2022, house of the dragon is coming out, basically the story of the targaryens
only if house frey was narrated by walder frey, that would have been spectacular.
I liked his character,, do realistic
He was too busy killing strigoys
Kinda liked that Kat narrated it and said she didn’t think the Freys couldn’t be that disloyal lol
@Frederik Seerup Nielsen Filch...his name is filch.
Which one? They have a lot of them XD
I wish someone would make a whole animated story based exactly on the Books.
Yes, with the same actors providing the voices
If they kept it gruesome like castlevania, it could be brilliant!!
If only wishes could come true
Only Margaery could make a rose sound badass.
@Taylor Rhodes you should see her in Tudors as Anne Boleyn ☺️
"We grow strong"
Damn..
aeris44 : Margaery is gorgeous. Honestly I think she's the most beautiful one in the entire show.
Olenna would do better.
aeris44 * war of roses
Lord Bolton and Margaery have epic story telling voices.
Roose Bolton & Tywin Lannister have amazing voices. Very eloquent and commanding at the same time.
I liked the hound and tyion alot too
He was pretty good too
nope oberyn epic af

That’s the exact kind of shit the leads to rebellions.
In the books Dany's grandpa was King Jaehaerys II.
1. The North : Stark
2. The Riverlands : Tully
3. The Iron Islands : Greyjoy
4. The Westerlands : Lannister
5. The Stormlands : Baratheon
6. The Reach : Tyrell
7. The Vale : Arryn
8. Dorne : Martell
Let this stay here for whoever forgets the Seven (should be Eight) Kingdoms and their ruling houses frequently like I do.
The Iron Islands were a part of the Kingdom of Rivers and Isles, the same kingdom as the Riverlands. There were only 7 kingdoms when Aegon became king.
The Tully are ghetto af. Don’t like them
There was:
1: King of the Isles and Rivers (The Iron of Islands): led by King Harren The Black
2: Kingdom Of The Storm (The Storm Lands): Led by Storm King Argilac Durrandon (The Arrogant)
3: Kingdom of The Reach (The Reach): Led by Mern IX Gardener
4: Kingdom of The Rock (The Westerlands): Led by Loren Lannister (The Last)
5: Kingdom of The Mountains And Vale (The Vale): Led by Ronnel Arryn (The King Who Flew)
6: Dorne (Dorne): Led by Meria Martell (The Yellow Toad Of Dorne)
7: Kingdom Of The North (The North): Led by Torrhen Stark (The King Who Knelt)
So there were seven by the time Aegon came
@Develyn Seether it doesn't matter, that was why it was called the 7 kingdoms, for the same reason no one counts the Crownlands as one of the kingdoms and why dorne is counted amongst the kingdoms despite only bending the knee a century after the conquest
@NicholasYes exactly, both seperated and are not 1 kingdom as both are run completely independently of the other.
0:00 Targaryen
3:03 Stark
5:14 Lannister
8:58 Baratheon
11:31 Tyrell
15:38 Arryn

21:31 Tully
26:14 Bolton

39:30 Baelish

Thank you!!!!

Gosh house Martell is by far my favorite story, such passion and sadness
@Last 😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️
18:21 where armies fail, the tongue may succeed baby 😛
too bad the sand snakes ruined it all (in the series at least)
Sad how house Tyrell and Martell are completely gone and unless Tyrion or Jamie have a heir, the main Lannister bloodline will fade too
All those houses are fine in the books, it’s the Arryn’s who should be worried since their only heir is a sickly child.
in the books they’ll be fine
You’re forgetting that the Lannisters have tons of cousins. Even the Tyrells, even though they contradict this in their own show.
Lannisters deserves to be faded away.
@Emmett Kahnert sansa is queen meaning that her children will take her name even if they are bastards plus rickon is still alife in the books
There is so much history and depth to each of these stories. Someone should make a TV show about this world.
And who has a better story than Bran the broken.
It's interesting that the Targaryen kings claimed kingship over the andals, the rhoynar, and the first men - despite not belonging to any of these factions/races being valyrian themselves.
House Martell of Dorne is the most liberated and civilized house and was probably the only house that had respectful values and dignity. No wonder they didn’t fall under Targaryens when every other house did.
House Martell is the most badass yet underrated house....
I miss Oberyn 😞 oh why did he have to get "cocky" during trial by combat and get his brains squashed?!!! 😫😫😫
***!! SPOILER ALERT!!***
@Hi Daßer he let his emotions cloud his thinking .. ...but seriously, fuck all that dancing around shyt, he should have just
Killed him, said the hell with Kings landing, got back to dorne and started plotting and planning a siege on Kings Landing
He didn’t get “cocky” he got distracted by his emotions and his love
@Alessandro La Biunda it's me, it's me, it's the red viper that you see!
That's why he wears a helmet made out of Beskar now.
Not happening a second time.
Dorne never bowed. They joined amicably through marriage.
I find it absolutely hilarious how many "impregnable fortresses" and conquered houses exist simultaneously in the same lands.
@Phileas Liebmann ummm, look at Constantinople if you want the ur-example of an impregnable fortress that got thoroughly impregnated

wait, did the actor himself narrate it?
spurti subramanyam Nevermind I didnt realize all of the houses were on here 😂
spurti subramanyam it’s Viserys not Tywin lol
Catelyn Stark narrating house Frey with disgust in her voice tells u a lot about the house 😂

@Leemone 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the shaaaade
I was thinking the same thing lol
@MrStoptheEU for no reason but I got reason . Without the Sand snakes all them got kind heart. But that woman Sansa and Catlyn dumbs.
I can hear that. LOL
I love how House Baelish is just Peters backstory

Oh Margaery, my sweet summer child :(
@leliana rochefort correct
@leo the most ridiculous writing, to think that the tyrell cousins or the other houses in reach will accept a cut throat as their successor.
@no mo moeall Tyrells aren't dead even in the show. Don't know why they gave bronn high garden
@Ivanna Larissa that's because at season 6 the books stop
in the books they are still growing strong
Robert Baratheon has the best story telling voice.
REBELLION
He really does. Imo, he’s a very underrated character as Mark Addy does not get enough praise
I gotta say, I love that the Reeds call alligators “lizard lions”
I'm so mad that they completely ignored the Reed's in the show. They didn't explain their story at all, killed Jojen when he's clearly an important character, made Meera vanish after season 7 and never really showed Howland (except for the ''flashback'' Bran had). That's so disappointing.
This was outstanding. The animation, voices, lore, all absolutely brilliant. I never watched the series but I feel as if I have just watched one.
2:30 = It's a shame that Viserys didn't survive the very first season as I would've loved to have witness his reaction to finding out that there is in fact a 3rd person in Westeros who not only has Targaryen blood in him but is also in fact the actual rightful ruler of The 7 Kingdoms instead of him (Viserys)
@Chaimae ⵣ Rhealla crowned viserys because she assumed that all rheagars children were dead, no one gives a shit about what the mad king did, it's why Robert fears his children because their claim is stronger than his, the only thing Robert achieved with his rebellion is that anyone with a large enough army can claim the iron throne...no right to rule just conquest
@Chaimae ⵣ we don't know if Jon is a bastard or not, there is no evidence to prove he is or isn't, when rheagar died his legitimate sons come before his siblings, it's part of the reason why Dany is fucked if people will actually believe Young Griff is Aegon.
@Nicholas so as viserys lol Rhaegar died before Aerys so literally the throne went to viserys .
Plus there's no way that jon is a legitimate child they made it in the show bcz they cut off young griff the real Aegon
First of all
This is just the show version they make jon the rightful heir because they had cut off an important character called young griff the real Aegon Targaryen .
Secondly viserys had the better than any of Rhaegar's children simply because when Rhaegar died the mad king desinherited Rhaegar's children and named viserys his heir . He even had been crowned by his mother Rhaella in dragonstone .
Finaly Robert Baratheon dethroned the targaryens so in that point the rightful heir by all means is stannis Baratheon
@Evan W You don't know how claims work...Rheagar was the crown prince and heir, his sons would have a better claim than Viserys
this is awesome. the actors who portrayed their characters have narrated their respective houses. Harry Lloyd for Targaryen, Richard Madden for stark, Charles Dance for Lannister, Mark Addy for Baratheon, Michael for Bolton etc
+Sarah Souayah cat's sister lysa is lady arryn by her marriage to jon arryn. Since Michelle is a major character till season 3, they would've told her to do house arryn
except for Michelle who did both house Arryn and house Frey I don't get that
I love how nearly all the noble houses are related to eachother by some close or distant relative or ancestor. Obviously the reasons are because of political alliances (through produced heirs), but every major house in Westoros has literally f**ked eachother at some point throughout the last 300 years following Aegon's conquest, with the Targaryen's and Martell's being the most politically promiscuous.
Take Jon Snow for example. Although he's half Targaryen and half Stark, his great grandfather (Jaehaerys II) was half Blackwood, his great, great grandfather (Aegon V) was half Dayne and his great, great, great grandfather was half Martell (Maekar I), and his ancestor Rhaenyra's Targaryen was half Arryn. And that's merely the lineage of a single main character from a noble house lol
How have I only just found this glorious video 2 years after? Robb’s voice got me feelin some type of way 😭

Oberyn's words were so sad at the end :(
Yeah that was really had to hear
Space Girl a challenge to our lovers
BOY IS A BOTTOM
Robert, Stannis and Renly's Grandmother was a Targaryen so the dragon blood was just from his ancestor.
Holy shit house Bolton is terrifying

Agreed
I so want the Martells to come back with a vengeance
@I’m not creative enough to think of a new name llpp.pl. n
but Myrcella didn't!
Emily Ingram Despite how much I love Oberyn and the history of Dorne, I don't want them to seek out their petty vengeance. They kill the innocent Lannister girl as well as their prince and king, who had seen the devastation that war can cause and tried to keep his country safe.
However, (based on the show, I haven't read the books), apparently he didn't really heed the will of the Dornish, who desired vengeance against the Lannisters.
Interesting this reminds me of how the anime Fate/Zero explored a king who saved/serves the people vs a king who leads/gets served by his people.
Technically House Tyrell isn't extinct in the show either. Olenna and Margery commented on all of the cousins they have. Even if they're not from the mainline, there are probably other Tyrells wandering the Reach. Also, considering how everything in Dorne works, I wouldn't be surprised if the Sand Snakes were A. naturalized to become Martells B. allowed to give their male heirs the last name Martell, thus continuing the line. (Hoping they don't all die soon)
Coco Coci No mate, they wont
Margery: and we will keep the affairs of the reach for a thousand more years
Cersi: *sips wine* we’ll see about that

Well... at least show Cersi does.
When Tywin says "Hear me roar" i got chills
Watching this for the first time during season 8, when most all of these narrators are dead, is funny.

The whole story of Ice and Fire is centered around Targaryens lol. Every house is like, I... then Aegon Targaryen....three headed dragons... we rebelled the Targaryen dynasty.... bent the knee and wasn’t burned... Targaryens dragon fire forged the Iron Throne, Red Keep was built by Targaryens... etc.
Flaming Falcons : That's thanks to Aegon tho, he forced their ancestors to submit
Catelyn’s voice slowly transitioning to a more raspy voice, a nod to Lady Stoneheart, is the best.
I want Corlys's house Velaryon story and Otto's house Hightower story
This video is amazing , so much history and info!! Thank you for uploading this

@WolfGang Uhh he's talking about Avatar: The Last Airbender
Pretty much; poor writing skills, for a foreign invader to take quick hold of a country; the state of that country already has to be a mess. I can't believe the writers portrayed Westris a a peaceful euphoria taken over by barbaric invaders. Westros would have been far from that and the foreign invaders would have been far from barbaric.
Well technically Robert has a closer Targaryen relation in his grandmother who was a Targaryen. I wouldn't exactly call that a distant relation...
Hearing Robb's voice makes me want to cry
@M ar
I like how she freed much of Essos and was headstrong and lead it into a better prosperity, yet you still somehow hate her to the point you'd be excited to see her die?
All the way up to Season 6, she's been amazing, Season 7 was a bit of a mixed bag with her surrounding people. Season 8... well, she's not the only one who was made stupid in Season 8
What accent is he?
No loss, he was not a great leader. And marrying that whore
@Tommy Aventador 🤣🤣🤣
I got goosebumps when I heard it
was this an official thing where the actors voiced their house history? that’s pretty dope
I wonder how the kingdom would have been had Ned Stark claimed the throne.
That was, by far, the shortest 43 minutes of my life

Yes but not with d&d as writers
@Jerico Parazo you got it
@A rose in Winter I think he meant that it was so awesome he did not notice the time pass by.
What do you mean? Confused
The last words of house bolton and house frey are so powerful... and hearing catelyn say not even walder can be that disloyal is so sad :((
damn this is actually the actors from the show who are speaking for each family, nice one.
man this Viserys guy is such a good narrator, i could picture him reading a Game of Thrones audiobook! im sure he'd be good at it (:
The irony is that it wasn't conquest that made Dorne swear fealthy. It was a marriage pact.
So Little Finger was in RiverRun & left after he healed. Brandon had left to join his family. Lyanna and Rhaegar left the river lands and I believe ran into LittleFinger who then knew Brandon would react. He waited until he got to the fingers to write a letter to Cat who then tore it up without reading it. This is why he said it was built on a lie and why gave that look to Sansa in the crypts when she said Rhaegar raped her aunt. Lyanna prob thought he was joining the wedding party. I think Lysas son is his- a weak, meak boy
Loving how the actors that play each character within their respected house is narrating, ❤️ it!
The Starks, Martell's, and Baratheon's are my favorite houses by far.
Am I the only one that has house Mormont as their favourite? Sir Jorah and lyana were absolute legends

Has anyone looked at the theory that the Starks did roll over they just realized that the dragons could keep back the long night hence giving up the kingship.
Don't you love how almost all of the narrators here are dead or zombies?
Well it's not like they have more lines to memorize. They have the time now.
@Scorpio Tears she's zombie-ish though, she's been dead too long before being resurrected.
You could say White Walkers
@Scorpio Tears alright mate if you say so...
@George B no. Brought back from the dead. Not raised from the dead. Completely different.
Bear Irelands, Iron irelands, dothraki, bravos and other free cities would be great addition
Wow.. You know, when you watch all of these stories you realize that each house compliments eachother in their own way. Now if everybody could just get along, there'd be no reason to fight for a "throne".. Sadly, the same can almost be said of our own world and each country. *shrugs*
Can't we all just get along? Obviously! not with Putin or capitalistic corporation chief psychopaths in the world.
Wow the love the narration of this and the animation! This is top notch stuff right here kudos!
Oberyn Martell We miss you! It would been an honour to see you fight against white walkers as everyone stands together against the walking dead!!!!
I wish there was nearly hour long videos on the lore and histories of Harry Potter. GG J.K GG
Lovely artwork. Bravo!
The actors who played awesome King Robert Baratheon and Tywin Lannister have awesome voices.
36:30 I always had the thought that the northerners respected the cranagmen as the viscous guards of the neck
39:00 the vale was the most fertile kingdoms being river-valleys
39:30 - Aiden Gillen, might as well call him Liam Neeson mk.2, can never quite regulate the Irish accent, much like in the show too where he seemed to sound increasingly more Irish as the series progressed. Though I'd honestly argue that I personally think Gillen is the better actor.
Dorne never bowed.
They annexed into the seven kingdoms rather peacefully and could never be conquered because of the guerilla tactics they used.
Even with dragons.
Really well produced - incredible!
Roose Bolton’s voice made me afraid in the show but damn here he has a soft and clalming voice
When I heard "And the rose grows again" a shiver went down my spine.
So well done ... thank you for sharing !
This is so well done! Just like a documentary

House Velaryon? The most underated house in history? They legit were the MOST influential house after Targaryen untill their fall (Targaryens at some major wars were reliant on Velaryon military power, wealthiest house in Westeros). Also had the rare valyrian looks. And to top all of that, Lord Corlys Velaryon was the greater version of Tywin Lannister (aged death, unkillable, saved Targaryen dynasty in Blacks and Greens war, rode a dragon, his father started the King's guard). This house topped every house except for Targaryen and you're telling me they're not worthy any credit or special mentions in any of the official video content?? Starks - honorable dudes, Lannisters - sneaky rich pricks, Arryns - fancy knights, Tully - budget knights and Martells were pretty badass so I won't mock them
@nameless aged like a fine wine
@Arthas Menethil aged well!
@nameless well well well!
THE OLD, THE TRUE, THE BRAVE ♡ It's such a shame there were no Velaryons in the show, even a mention... They left out many "minor" houses, even when houses like the Velaryons, Hightowers, Wyls, etc. had more achievements and interesting histories.
Bran and Robb put emphasis on "Winter is coming." But, the show ruined it. They hyped it up for nothing.
True , winter came and lasted a night and there was summer in the next episode for some reason , lol.
@Maritza Piccarillo "the only Cunts to hype it up"
You do realize the entire book series is called A Song of Ice and Fire? Return of Dragons and of The Others.. They kept mentioning how this Winter will be a long one, how no one truly remembers because it's been such a long summer. They have a phrase for those who haven't seen a winter. Don't play dumb and just ignore all the foreshadowing. That actually comes true. The payoff was just shit.
@Swordedge nah you're just butthurt because it didn't happend how you wanted it, go cry somewhere else
Your video truly truly connects all the houses with respect to their views of what is going on with regards to the history... how did you get the actors to narrate your video?! I am so impressed! 💕
This is actually from HBO. It’s history is and lore on the DVD Extras. Not from the actual guy who posted it here
I'd have liked them to do a series that maybe starts with the Targereyen rule and ending with Robert's Rebellion.
Lyanna's falling in love and kidnapping started the rebellion and consequently the war kinda reminds of Helen of Troy and the Troy war...
Robert was my favourite character in the first book. My love for him was cemented when Jamie Lannister lost his tilt and couldn't get his helmet off. Robert was the one laughing the loudest and longest
House Reed are mysterious indeed.
House Baelish honestly might be the most impressive one! Started from literally nothing!
Well done you! I had chills listening, loved the graphics!
You should do another with more houses, like Greyjoy and Tarley
House martell is probably the best house overall, would be my favorite if more time was spent on them and Their best ppl didn’t die
@Chaimae ⵣ oof :(
Read the books
They cut arianne martell one of the badass females of all time
And Doran martell the masterplan is still alive and up to do something great !
Houses Tyrell, Martell, Tully, Bolton and Frey. Love how they narrate these houses. :D
I think the Roose Bolton from the tv show is 1,000 more fiendish, cunning, abhorrent, and dreadful than the depiction of him in the book. I thought the actor did a really good job in his interpretation of Roose Bolton.
These remind me of Thief II: The Metal Age cinematics. Absolutely lovely.
House Greyjoy? House Seaworth? House Tarly? House Mormont?
Joel Dordan Check out the other videos on this channel! There’s one for House Greyjoy!
@Nebula Nigrim Leonis where
Maybe they were doing just the major houses
Watch the other Histories.
i hope there will be a Part 2 (for the houses you mentioned)
This is so good and very detailed!
I wish they would’ve added more older houses like Bracken, Blackwood, Hightower, and Reyne.
Also no Greyjoy? 😭
25:30 - " my nephew edmure rules in riverrun... god's help us" hahaha
Edmure rules was not bad
always shitting on Edmure lmao The Blackfish was a savage.
House Soprano, House Barksdale, House Stanfield, and House Heisenberg in Got world.. now that would be intresting
House omar
This was so well done thank you
