Hardhome was destroyed by a dragon, if these events were 600 years before dany was born, then that means aegon the conquerer had not yet landed on westeros, and it is hinted that wild dragons were known to leave valyria and travel across the narrow sea from time to time, most likely was a wandering dragon from valyria, that stumbled upon the wildlings port while hunting, and most likely attacked in self defense, after being provoked by the people there. as a side note, its stated in a few brief sections of lore that the "frost dragons" that live on the west side of the great north decended from regular dragons, as the dragons that migrated there adapted to their enviroment.
GRRM has said this isn't True. We only see the Northern hemisphere of Planetos. He said there are presumably continents in the Southern Hemisphere like Australia is on our own planet.
@@dannymaurice5543Think about around the 900-1000AD era, Western Europeans hadn't discovered the American continent and Australia & New Zealand, aswell as Indonesia and the Pacific Islands, they hadn't travelled and mapped Africa
There is a theory that the northern White Waste actually connects Essos and Westeros and that’s how the Long Night happened in both of these continents.
We only had one scene that showed the lands of always winter. ( i assume the place where the night king made his first appearance and turned a baby into a white walker was the lands of always winter) They showed nothing of the frostfangs, frozen shore or thenn. They also only showed castle black, small parts of eastwatch and one scene of the abandoned nightfort. There's so much unexplored in the north. The REAL north.
In the books I always found north of The Wall, and the far east of Essos, to be the most interesting parts of the lore, but I’m glad they didn’t over-explore them in the show, as they were very mysterious and I think it’s better left to the imagination. I’ve always tried to picture what the Lands of Always Winter look like but I’m glad it’s left to my head
You clearly havent spent time reading about what lies southeast of Essos. The North of Westeros is like meeeeh compared to the mysteries of the east lands.
Tasos Filippos sothoryos sounds kinda more interesting than the north. what they have in common is that not all of these continents have been fully discovered. so cool that it’s shrouded in mystery
The North is a lot more mysterious and seems a bit more uncharted. Kinda like a few areas in Essos. Though this northern part of Westeros has ice dragons, mammoths, giants and white walkers or "Others" so in that sense it seems like an amazing area.
Why is north above the wall a much more interesting location that the other places in westeros? It's so unexplored and the few times the show has had scenes there it's been great
Its so interesting because we dont know much about it. Its mysterious and knowing the secrets would make it less interesting because then there wont be much more mystery
The mystery of not knowing something will always be more interesting than actually knowing. George R.R. Martin is a genius at only giving us just enough to establish world building and leaving the rest of the world up to the reader's interpretation.
I always thought the fist of the first men was much longer north than the maps makes it out to be. It used to take ages to travel in the show aside from the very first episodes in season 1. But even then they clearly showed the time difference by showing the growth of the direwolves and how much more east daenerys had gone in essos. Makes me laugh how they seemingly fast traveled for fun when they wanted to in the last seasons.
All the work and attention to detail you put into these videos is amazing. I remember in past videos you mentioned how long it takes for you to research, compile and edit these, so if there are small hiccups it’s understandable. I love these videos and can’t wait for the next ones, you do a great job so thank you. I know you do this for fun and no body pays you to do these, how can we help/ support?
Yep. Have to find out somehow right? The first book was published in the mid-late nineties, yet so many of us didn't find out until the show debuted. That's ok, because I am still working on them myself. ASoS currently.
Thanks for the nice video. My favourite region in the whole series is the hostile North with the barbaric tribes, the Others, the Giants and so much more... P.S : The great weirwood tree reminds me of a real plane tree in Achaia, Greece that is 25 m tall and 15 m wide in its trunk. It is used as an orthodox church and is called Panagia Plataniotissa.
Nice job about the map. Only one place i think is wrong the Cave of the 3-eyed Raven i think is much more North. In the books i remember that they pass some lakes or something before they reach the Cave.
These videos really brought me back to the whole world of ice and fire. After season 8 shitfest i just wanted to forget about the whole thing, but now i feel like i want to read the books.
We need so much a new series (maybe GoT spinoff or GoT season 9) playing on these places, so many misteryes, so many cool places. Please make it happen.
the north grove was an enchanted village beyond the wall where the dead couldn't enter and evil/blood magic was used to control the people there and it slowly killed the enchanters using the spells
Whenever I see these fantasy maps, my eye always wanders towards the most inhospitable extremes rather than the warm, safe capitals. Regions like this are like a fairy tale for me. A dark, horrible, brooding fairy tale.
Dude puts effort into solid content off his own back educating everyone freely on the lore of GOT. Everyone in the comments: That was used by Sam against the white walker
Yes! Although there isn't a whole whole lot of info to delve into. Which is what makes us curious, to be sure. It's dangerous, taboo even to Shadowbinders.
If they ever do a new series with Jon, Hardhome would be ideal. Sounds like a dragon burned down the village... Imagine he finds that dragon or its offspring and tames them
i think they are more concerned about the world being destroyed by the others than collecting the strategic snow reserves the lands beyond the wall have.
True, but the free folk will not want to yield and be subjugated by people of the lands south of the walls, and the land should be left alone since dire wolves, polar bears, mammoths, shadow cats, giants etc live there.
My favourite part this video covered was the burning of hardhome, more specifically the screaming from the caves, delightfully sinister and mysterious and horrifying
What's with the big island/peninsula in the far northeast at 0:05? I've never seen that on a map before. No speculation about how far north Westeros actually goes, and what lies beyond what we see on the map? Same with the far east if Essos... There's definitely something beyond the Grey Waste and the Shadow Lands, as the land doesn't thin out or get smaller...
@@anirudh6634 Ib is the big island right off the coast of northern Essos, in the middle. The island I'm talking about it is right off the coast of far northern Westeros near the Lands of Always Winter.
Fantastic video. You should do one one each region of westeros and the game of thrones world. Great way to pass my tone while waiting for the next book
I think in the series or books that after the Wall is destroyed the lands that used to be Beyond the Wall will be apart of the realm as the Winterlands or the Snowlands or something like that.
"West of the Wall is The Gorge, which is simply a deep gorge" Wow, who would have ever thought??? I always assumed the Gorge was actually something else, like a not-gorge... The more you know!!!!!!!! OwO
2:42 what he said rite there. Makes this whole video worth watching. Even if that's all you learned. I had no idea until he broke it down. I really didn't notice. Great work broddah. Love peace and chicken greese from New Jersey.
I thing their is more in GOT world that needs to be explored. Say for eg far beyond places and mysteries and other new creatures Maybe in another series. Who agrees?
good video, some recommendation on audio editing, use a small bit of music to swell and fade as you transition the many takes you made to produce the video. some of the studdering and transitions were a little jarring. Also, some show notes on sources for the section either as captions or in the publish notes would be awesome.
Why were there wights around the 3 eyed crow's hideout? They could be 2 things. Either undead he reanimated and left there as a trap or he deliberately buried some of his zombies there. He couldn't have reanimated them as they crossed the line to enter his hideout because the night king didn't know where they were. If he did he would have eliminated them already. So what that means is part of what took the night king so long to get to the wall was that he was presumably raiding Graves for men and also setting booby traps everywhere. He was setting up his total domination of the north north before he approached the wall
Love these videos.. Just a bit of advice, though, always refer to literature or tv/movies in the present-tense (i.e.: "Craster WAS a..." should be, "Craster IS a..."). *SPOILER* Even though he dies, it's just proper grammar to refer to literary works in their present-tense. Anyways, have a great day!
