the North - Map Detailed (Game of Thrones) 

10:30 Should be Rickon, not Bran on Shaggydog.

When you forget to name your castle before saving it: *New Castle*

Children of the forest when any problem arises: Thats it, im gettin me mallet

You laugh at Rodrik Stark winning Bear Island in a wrestling match, but imagine how much suffering could have been avoided if the War of the Five Kings was fought out in a ladder match

One man thought of all of this.

Why do I know more about the GoT world than our actual world

2:55 A lot of houses descend from the first men, but they intermarried with andals and became members of the Faith, House Blackwood is just the only house outside of the north to still follow the old gods

10:14 Osha: "So it's a cold, isolated island north of the Gift inhabited by a bunch of savage cannibals who eat everyone who visits the place? Okay, I think I'm gonna take the last male Stark confirmed to be alive, the heir to Winterfell, there. What can go wrong?"

The northern border of the North is actually the New Gift, land granted to the Nights Watch for their sustenance. The Nights Watch is not politically part of the North, but is more a penal colony

Mormont wasn’t exiled, he was sentenced to death and ran

I hope Rikon takes back the North with a army from Skagos in the books.

Last hearth turned into dead house today. Umber boy was scary as hell

A ton of Northern Houses are left out because their locations haven't been included yet

Such an awesome video! It's such a trip learning about all the nooks and crannies of the lands. Wow friggin unicorns and cannibals!? That's crazy man. I've been binging your videos non stop since I found your channel. They are insanely cool. Thank you so much for making these! 😊

More good content, can’t wait to see other regions, especially the westerlands

Fantastic channel!! THANK YOU! Really appreciate your knowledge and insight on IaF/GoT lore. Thank you so much for all your encyclopedic efforts on these masterpieces of modern literature! Super happy to subscribe!

Awesomely-done...Very nice video to watch. I'll always (probably) have LotR as my top fantasy material, but the work and lore put into this world from Martin is pretty dang amazing and detailed. Love it

Best game of thrones content right here

Great vid. Helps me understand GOT a lot better with the different locations.

Love your explanation of things, great content

i enjoyed this so much! great work keep it up!

I listen to you every day!! Love it !

Yep, "the sky is blue because we live inside the eye of a blue eyed giant".

"They even have special rooms where they do their gross shit" lol

I don't say this with sarcasm, I love how he always explains what flaying is when the Bolton's pop up. I mean we already knew that but i hope you never stop, it makes me chuckle.

Such a good video can't wait for the rest! What about north of the wall? Also as far west on esso as the shadowlands would be another awesome place to do a vid on! Great videos man!

Man I love you videos, and I appreciate the work you must put in. Fantastic detailed vid

You make great videos bro keep it up I enjoy them all 💪👊💯

Bro, Thanks for the videos they are fantastic .

Love your channel. Excellent video. 🤗

It may be a weird opinion but, I think shaggy dog and rickon are the most badass of the Starks and their direwolves in the current timeline just because they don’t give a sh*& about everyone else and just run around like the crazy duo they are.

Another thing about Skagos is that Eastwatch and other merchants trade there. There are 3 major clans in Skagos, one of them called the Magnar of Skagos by Cottor Pyke. I don't think they're that savage as they're made out to be

Thank you! Love the videos

Imagine my guy says torrhen square isnt important, without torrhen square the starks protecting bran dont leave winterfell which is when the greyjoys attack, no greyjoy attack means ramsey bolton doesnt sack winterfell, also means bran stays in winterfell, starks are betrayed by boltons lets assume but now with bran stark still in winterfell and the bolton army stuck below the neck the north world rally behind bran and fight the traitor boltons

Fantastic video really well done!

Thanks for these new series, love them

I just found your videos. Really good job.

These video’s are so nice! But how do you know all these things? Keep that good work up!

I bet the Skagosi are actually like the Naathi - all the myths surrounding them has led everyone to think they are cannibals who hunt unicorns.

This concept art is amazing I wish I could draw like that

Bro. This is amazing

Great video, well explained. I think you should upgrade your microphone or at least solve the pops, and cut your audio clips with a tiny bit more space, so we can hear what you say better and more confortably.

you should do a video on houses blackwood and braken

That picture of when you talked about the warg king might be that one op wildling in raydar's army

If there was really good writing and directing a class spinoff would be following exployer going around westseos and essos and other regions we have not got to see yet i think it would be amazing if well done

Great vid dude :) There is so much great lore to everything in ASoIaF. Sadly we don't see much of it in GoT

Jorah was not exiled. He was sentenced to death but escaped when Ned Stark road for Bear Island.

Great video! 👍

Impressive! Keep it up, good sir... :)

I´d completely forgot that Rickon is in Skagos with Shaggydog, good to remember there is one more Stark alive, still...

Great videos!

You are awesome

I like to imagine it takes weeks to get from castle to castle

There are a number of problems with what is known about the North. First, GRRM has said that Westeros is "as large as South America". This would mean that the Lands beyond the Wall, the North and the Kingdoms south of the Neck would each be around 1.3 million sq.miles. On the other hand, in the TV series, Roose Bolton, standing outside Winterfell, tells Ramsey that the Wall is 700 miles away to the north, 700 miles to the Neck, 400 miles to the west and 300 miles to the east, so that would make the North around 840,000 square miles. In both cases, given the medieval level of technology of ATOIAF, it is 24-70 days travel from Winterfell to the Wall or to the Neck in Roose Bolton's eyes and farther if GRRM's analogy is true. This makes the traveling distance from King's Landing from 48-140 days travel, depending on whether ox cart, slow walk or a brisk ride that wouldn't kill the horse. Next, in Season 7, John Snow tells Tyrion that there are less than a million people in the North. While GRRM has a major input to the show runners, they could have done the Roose Bolton and Jon Snow's comments on their own. There is no way a feudal society could be maintained in a land with a population density less than 4 per square mile. Medieval Sweden in 1300 CE had a population density of 4.6 and Scotland had a density greater than ten. With less than a million people in the North, it would look like Inuit or Laplander societies, which is what the Wildlings above the wall are modeled on. Going back in time, given the average of 2 to 3% of a society's population engaging in major battles like Agincourt or Poitiers or Bannockburn and others in the High Middle Ages, King Toren's army must have been supported by a population of at least 2.5 to 3 million, some three hundred years before. Even if the winters had controlled the increase in population, which is not historically supported, and if 33% of the population died in the War of the Five Kings, a number which cannot be supported by the events of the books or shows, there had to be at least 3 million people in the North to build, sustain and maintain Winterfell, Dreadfort, Last Hearth, White Harbor and others. In fact, White Harbor is said to be the fifth most populous city in Westeros. With a population density like southern Sweden, the North would have over four million people, while at the level of Scotland, over 10 million. Westeros itself all togther would have somewhere between 55 and 100 million.

Nice video. Thanks. This should be required viewing before reading AFFC or ADWD. Even on my rereads, I keep going, 'wait, where is deepwood Mott, and Torrunds square?'. Thanks a lot.

Great videos! Couple questions, what's gonna happen with GOT ? Are they gonna make it into a anime?

Thank you for this. 👍👍👍

Great Video.

"Where they do their gross shit." Amazing.

This was awesome!

i cant wait till season 8. ive been watching all these vids to hold me over

Mormont wasn't sent in exile, he would have been sentenced by Eddard Stark but had fled to the Free City's before Stark got to Bear Island.

That's not how you pronounce "Barrow". It rhymes with "Marrow". Or, you know. Like "Wheelbarrow".

Really enjoy your videos. I love the history and geography of the Ice and Fire world. I don't know if anyone else has pointed this out and not trying to be a jerk lol. But House Cerwyn is pronounced Kerwyn not Serwyn. Keep the videos coming. Definitely hitting the buttons.

I've seen most of the series, and listens to one of the audio books, and that's all fine. But this world building and the Deep lore stuff is where the real gold is, in my opinion.

We need more!!!

Dude you should totally do a video about the lands beyond the wall next please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fascinating

Ive been thinking if the others/white walkers are the reason for the fucked up weather which seems to be a high possibility and if with their defeat comes normal weather cycles like on earth then the North would inevitably become too powerful due to a population explosion to remain a part of the seven kingdoms because of its size also all that land beyond the wall was likely habitable and fit for farming at one point and its also been depopulated for the most part so it stands to reason the north would just become to powerful to not be independent

Can u make vids about middle earths kingdoms and countries?

RIP Last Hearth.. and now there reigns WEEP OVER THEIR HALLS WITH NO ONE THERE TO HEAR

Whenever I watch videos about the North, I always feel like House Forrester of Ironrath is always forgotten.

Very cool

Amazing

"I will not be mentioning Torrhens Square" "Well shit"

Awesome

Is there anything North of the Lands of Always winter? The map doesnt seem to stop at the border. Is there something north of the shivering sea?

Do this for north of the wall

Cerwyn is pronounced as "Kerwyn" and its the barrowlands, not the borrowlands

I wonder if Azog ever mounted the Warg King

Love it

So where does the Northern line to London start? I think it starts near the neck

Finally some good story for rickon stark

Rickon in the books: sails to cannibal island and goes wild Rickon in the series: runs straight when being shot at with a bow

Hey I’m pretty sure it is, but the Dreadfort is the second largest castle in the North after Winterfell right?

What about house Forrester ? I know it was only in a game but they were mentioned in the first book

What about house Forester?

Rickon Stark Lord of Skagos

The new spinoff prequel show should go into detail about what you were talking about in the beginning about the children.

Plz do the river lands

Check out the flood direction of the rivers on the north. Mountain ranges must lay on the same direction too. But we see too much east to west/west to east shore lines. Careless mapping.

what i dont understand is..if the ironborn attack the north doesnt that make the two continents in open war? Or is the nort only attacked by pirate ironborn?

Just looking at how much I changed the North after playing the Game of Thrones Mod on Crusader Kings II

I wonder if the unicorn horns the one place trades are actually narwhal horns since they are so close to the sea? In real life sailors would sell narwhal horn/tusk as unicorn horns because the idea of a horned fish was too far fetched.

The part abut the Blackwood's is not true, a great number of first men descent is in the south too, especially in the reach and storm lands.

do stormlands

What is the difference between the Wildlings and the Mountain Clans of the Vale?

Also you may mention forrester and whitehill houses but they are featured only on the got game

seems like on the show they took the thenns and the skagosi and mixed them into one cultural group

wierwood on islands? Didn't i watched your clip of detailed world map, and u said that in part of the explanation of Iron Islands, that they didnt had old gods religion because wwood trees dont grow on islands? And skagosi do?
