Having had so many children you would think the Succession of Jaehaery Targaryen would have been firm and secure. But the death of Prince Aemon, that was far from the case and things were only about to get worse. On one side you had the king's second son Baelon, the other his Grand-daughter Rhaenys. But when tragedy would strike Baelon thing only became more complex. With his good queen Alysanne dead, there was only one thing Jaehaerys could do, call a great council to decide the matter. Game Of Thrones / House of the dragon are HBO shows based on Geroge R R Martins A Song Of Ice And Fire series. The information in this video comes from the books a world of ice and fire as well as fire and blood.

I always believe the dance of the dragons could always be avoided. Viserys the 1st should name taken a page out of Jahaerys’s book and make it law that if there isn’t a clear successor, then a great counsel should always happen in a dire as a last chance to determine an heir.

@WorldOfWesteros 3 года назад

Defiantly should have happened earlier to avoid the mess it caused. 101 was meant to set a precedent, but Viserys wanted it done his way and ignored the whole process that made him king in the first place. By picking rhaenyra he raises questions about his own claim. It amazing they even went 101 year without something like council of 101 being needed, regardless Aegon or anyone really should have made it clear law

@thegreatpage5912 2 года назад

Agreed. As soon as the dragons died, the Targaryen days was pretty much numbered.

Poor Rhaenys

@thalmoragent9344 Год назад

Reminds me of what Rhaenyra said in a line of hers recently in HotD; *"We must remind these Lords of the Oaths they swore"* To be fair... they weren't given much choice, is the issue. Jaeherys and many Targaryen kings after him held great councils to make Succession Decisions, Viserys however just told everyone he already made one. And then that lead to half the Realm swearing Oaths they didn't agree nor wish to bow too but had little choice... To quote a different kind of 'Stark': *"Not a great plan"*

@adefay2811 Год назад

The council of 101 is the only time Targaryen used one its history of ruling Westeros. The only other time a council is mentioned is when the targs were deposed and the chose Robert Baratheon has king. The king Westeros always decides his heir and it’s always a male heir except for Viserys. He kept rhaenerya has his heir because the love he had for aemma his first wife. He did not want to marry Alicent, the realm forced him to marry and he chose Alicent instead of letting everyone choose for him. Viserys wanted his line to pass down with the children he had with Emma because if she had a son that lived he would have made him heir.

@@adefay2811 There were Councils after Viserys over the case of Succession, of course one that's already been mentioned to you in regards to the Blackfyre candidate also there. I get Viserys loved his wife and all, but still, he let the situation pass without considering what he was doing. Take a page out of his Grandfather's book, that's all he had to do....

@@thalmoragent9344 I agree but the fact he loved his daughter and made all the lords bend the kneee to her he thought he washed his hands of the issue. Not realizing that the otto who gave him the idea was using that for his own plans.

@gerardjagroo 2 года назад

Hmm. Aemon killed by a _'random'_ crossbow bolt on Tarth Baelon killed by _stomach issues_ (poison?) It appears that someone was out to do for the Targaryens. I get the same vibes like in IClaudius where the Empress Livia was systematically eliminating rivals to her son Tiberius. Who could it be the maesters, the Myrish, the Braavosi? It really looks like they made a few calculated assassinations that lead to the Dance and the Death of the Dragons.

@WorldOfWesteros 2 года назад

If you buy into Preston Jacobs Maester Conspiracy theory, it really does seem like the masters were involved. If not them someone definitely was planning this.

If the Old king made Rhaenys as the wife of Viserys then no great council no dance of dragons . Seven kingdoms will be peaceful.

It’s ridiculous Baleon wad the heir apparent and vis his heir, the great council was not needed Rhea had already been passed over, And Leanor was not even a Targaryen but his last name was Valeryon, the succession was set.

@WorldOfWesteros Год назад

There is many things like this that could have been done to avoid the war

@drrohanjacob Год назад

This is why valyria was a freehold and not ruled by a king. It's hard to rule over another man when he has a giant murder lizard on his side. Both jahearys and viserys just kicked the civil war down the line. As long as more than 1 dragon lord exists there can be no king.

@adefay2811 Год назад

Since the council had decided the heir once, it should have been used every time the line of succession was in question. king jaehaery should have written the rules for the line of succession based on how the council voted. Although ,The dance of the dragons would still happen because of Otto Hightower, especially once Aegon 2nd claimed a dragon he was scheming to gain power since day one.

@ayiza8511 Год назад

@@adefay2811 perhaps Viseryes should have had a great council when he decided to name Rhenerya the heir. But it as you say Otto would never have accepted that decision anyway, he was determined to have his blood on the throne. And o feel like he would have turned Alicent to his thinking whit time. So the war was perhaps always coming

@thalmoragent9344 Год назад

@@drrohanjacob But I like Valyria, here we only have, what, 3 Valyrian families? And only 2 have Dragons. Jaeherys wasn't wrong with what he did, and we see a dozen Targaryen kings come after him. Viserys is the one that screwed up. Valyria had 40 Dragonlord families and dozens of other more minor houses as well, and Dragons were abundant. That's different. In Westeros? Targaryens had 90% of the Dragons in a single family, and with or without Dragons, this wouldn't be an issue if Viserys used Common Sense and actually bothered to be a good father to all his kids, not just Rhaenyra.
