You don't know the difference between a dragon and a wyvern? It's in the legs. 2 legs and wings is a wyvern and 4 legs is a dragon. A drake is like a dragon with no wings.
@@itskyyuuuu thank you, i also didn't know the difference but now i can put a knot on some things.
@whycreate thanks bro, i loved it.
“Might can help you with that”! For real man…
Why?

When you learn the history of a tv series more than actually history.
In reality, so much true history of our world is being kept from us that this fictional tale is truly an eye-opener and a message of subtle truth . wake up, everyone .

I like how GRRM has left so many ambiguous and mysterious regions. It helps maintain an almost infinite amount of mystery and wonder in his world
our imagination fills the gap, like in Tolkein's simarillion.
@@collaborativelearning1 what really

Westeros: exists
The Targaryens: *hippity hoppity this is now my property*
Lol
And the andals and the first men before them
I'm a Targaryen loyalist but I almost flew back from my chair laughing at this.
Robert baratheon : *hippity hoppity , get out of my property*
The Lannisters: hippity hoppity, piss off of my property
If they make an RPG video game of this world like Skyrim or the Witcher, my life is complete.
Jakob Bjartnes we can dream. Please Bethesda, do it.
being able to explore sothoryos (even if it's just the top part) would be amazing
Including dragons
Cd projekt red would be the best fit to make a game based in GOT world, because lets be honest Witcher 3s world was amazing.
Bethesda is doing it
A girl once wondered, "whats west of westeros?"
middle earth.
SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN A NOBEL PRIZE
Vladivostok
Cross over when?
McDonald’s
Westworld
You forgot to show the fast travel points
wasnt discovered until season 7 so probably not in history books yet
1 metre behind the night king?
What I want to know is how they got thousands of Dothraki and a dragon to fast travel around the same time and not have the game start glitching.
I wanna know how so many Dothraki and Northmen were ressurected.. the fast travel can be explained by poor editing and pacing for the most part
Wiener weiner wiener
I love how the world gets more supernatural and eerie the farther you get from Westeros
Because it is more myth and less fact.
Since we see the world from primarily Westerosi eyes, that makes sense. What is near is familiar and what is distant is dangerous.
Wtf one guy created all this lore. Insane.
Alot of his ideas are from actual history.
asambi69 yeah I knew but it still blows my mind.
I'm sure he plucked things from history
+Shreks or he is like Lockhart from Harry Potter and finds people with cool ideas and 'deals with them' after getting their story.
He got the idea after reading JRR Tolkien's books on Middle-earth.
Damn we need some huge game of thrones total war game.
YASSS
Few medieval 2 mods but only set in westeros
Try crusader kings 2 game of thrones mod it shows the entire map and there are some versions which show the full of southoros and ulthos
Theres a GOT Total War Attila mod in the works
I played a Total war Westeros mod it was actually good.
13:42 before the Doom of Valyria, 400 years before the War of the Kings - Jaenara Belaerys and her dragon, Terrax, set out to find the Southern coast of Sothoryos. She returned 3 years later and proclaimed it...
*"the land without end"*
When you realize Daenerys traveled all the way from Qarth all the way to Winterfell.
No, she went from Meereen to Winterfell
And it took her 7 seasons. But when she had to travel from Dragonstone to beyond wall to find John, it took her 17min.
@@pavlepaja7295 it was poor editing imo. A full grown dragon could fly the distance in a half day. The Raven may take a day and a half to get to Dragonstone. So 2 full days. We could believe they ran from the walkers for half a day. And stayed on the island for the evening to the afternoon. Or.. it could be 5 days.. and the night king just waited on the dragon to come, and the editing really fucked that up. Hell.. I could have done better.. they could have found a weertree cave thing and hide in it's magic, or they coulda sent fast feet to eastwatch when they ran into the sabercat. Or they could have Danny already posted at eastwatch, while scouting out the Lannisters forces and the north.. a hundred things woulda been better
@@thebystander1636 I heard about that one targaryen who took 4 years to travel south of Sothoryos on a dragon, and still didn't reach it's end. Half a day from island near King's Landing to the well beyond the wall seems kinda faster than speed of light. Unless Drogon used the special fuel from jetpack Littlefinger had.
@@pavlepaja7295 true. But Sothyros could be never ending :p
Does anyone else want spin-off series that explore east essos and maybe sothoryos or ulthos?
Maybe something about Princess Nymeria's journey.
Pos3id0n some weird shit is going on in essos of course i want it
Essos is really interesting, i heard in a video it may connect to the land of always winter
lil' wade it doesn't
I want a spin of series for balerion the dread
A dragonlord atop her dragon flew over Sothoryos for three years, confirming it was as big as Essos. I would love to see a movie based on that adventure.
Fr
It’s slightly inaccurate, she flew for 2 years and saw no end to the land so turned around. The size of it is technically still unknown. She said it’s at least the size of Essos.
Imagine that bitch tryin' to cook some supper up there like, can we cut out the turbulence
@@kirstybrown1185 vbayybA
@@methira y but
Holy shit this one will make a great rpg game
Small correction on Sothoryos: Yes, the Dragonlord traveled for three years, but their was an important fact to point out. It was concluded that Sothoryos was *far larger than Essos by a massive margin* as she never actually found the end. She even stated it was "a endless green plain"
good find and correction!
Wow. Suddenly this big fight for the iron throne seems to such a small thing. There would be so much to explore in Martin's World! I want to hear storys from all these other undiscouvered lands!

Arya: Yeah that's gonna be a no from me
@Notorious1503 Yeah, FUCK ARYA!
@Notorious Gendry: "I do"
Hate arya
Moon Jar I think they might be annoyed she decided to sail West rather than explore unexplored areas such as Sothoryos, Ulthos or the Far East.
@@awaywiththefaeries9464 i think we’re annoyed because she suddenly got superpowers and killed the strongest character in all of GoT with an insignificant dagger because D&D wanted to subvert expectations.
I always thought Valeriya was inspired from the Roman empire.... And it's destruction was like volcano eruption of Pompeii. 🤔🤔🤔
Valyria is inspired by the myth of Atlantis (ancient powerful,advanced civilisation that became decadent and destroyed in a massive desaster) and Tolkien's Numenor (powerful island empire,corrupted by Sauron and destroyed in a gigantic tsunami by the Valar) and also Michael Moorecock's Melnibone from the Elric books (decadent island empire of a humanoid race,similar to Elves,who practiced black magic and worship the Lords of Chaos,destroyed by Elric who was their emperor).
The Valyrians are said to be a veru decadent race,dabbling in blood magic and conquering enslaving other peoples.
Ghis is definitely based off of Carthage too.
Blue Qarth could be Carthage too
Philippe 1 nah, Qarth is Constantinople (a large port city with famously impenetrable walls). Old Ghis is Carthage, as they were the main rival of the Valyrian Freehold (who represents the Roman Republic/Empire) and were eventually destroyed. GRRM even keeps in the bit where the Romans sow salt into the lands around Carthage.
@@TheObiareus Rhoynar is the Gaul then? Rhoynar gave me that kind of vibe
Extremely well made. Comprehensive without getting draggy
Thanks!
I’m so worried George is not getting any younger and there are still thousands of stories to be told about Sothoryos and Ulthos! And even the rest of Essos. There’s still lots of things he needs to tell us about them and this is making me anxious
@hey it's pete weirdo
Unpopular opinion: The unexplored continents.... should stay unexplored. Especially when the main Westeros storyline is far from over.
If it’s popular enough other authors will take the reign
@@nicholaskenneth113 yeah agreed since it's more fun that way as people can make theories and discuss about these unknown lands
@@nicholaskenneth113 An unpopular opinion isn't necessarily bad or stupid. In this case though it's stupid asf.
Essos is more interesting than westeros
Syed Asad what about sothoryos
That's because Westeros is explored
The most interesting of the four continents is the most ambiguous, Ulthos=we literally know nothing, Sothoryos=we know almost nothing, Essos=we know a lot but like half of the lore is mysterious to us, Westeros=we almost know everything.
SSJR Goku-Black Jon snow belongs in ulthos then, I guess.
Why is that? @@HeadshotFilms1
Imagine this world actually exists in some corner of the Universe
Lets go!
It probably does in another universe.
Well it does but then without a the magic, it's clear that Westeros is based off England while Essos is based off Turkey
The universe is so incredibly big that there is a chance theres a planet very similar.
@NPC69 More like 800
Some locations were very briefly discussed and some places even left out because I didnt want to make a 9 hour video. Hope you liked it
whycreate keep it real
14:12 damn.... thats quite peaceful
hey dude, just came across this vid & it's really awesome! Excellent work as always! I tried searching but couldn't find one specifically about only Westeros...it would be really awesome to see a video by you on that..anyway, great work, hope u keep it up!
Split them into episodes. One day it is about this, one day it is about that. Maybe chronological order too.
whycreate Great vid man ty for the Information
If I wasn't educated I would think this isn't lore but real.
You don’t have to be very educated to know what a map of the world looks like.
Because it's heavily based on real life
Yes, dragons totally existed.
HBO Need to do a prequel about the war between children and first men, I'll definitely watch it ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I miss GOT 😭😭
You do it, you can do whatever the fuck you want
@@Lite727 shut up
How the hell did one man just create all this lore by himself.
Its quite easy. I can create a world like that in a few days.
@@Ignisan_66 It might be easy to think of these, but writing stories that span thousands of years without contradicting each other and being good stories is not easy.
The same way JK Rowling came up with the Harry Potter world.
Or Tolkien and LoTR
He studied history, spent decades writing tv scripts, for movies, short stories, and books. His wealth of historical knowledge helped him build a world nearly more massive than Tolkien’s depth, but written in a more historical style rather than epic poem esque and mythical nature of Tolkien’s work.
I think videos such as this one show exactly how remarkable George R.R Martins actual GoT series is, not to mention his mind for actually coming up with such things. People discussing it, actually talk about the places, people and history, as if it is all actual real world, or something which has really happened. It is believable too, when you hear such discussions, debates, etc and you would actually think the stuff really happened, or was going on now. It really is brilliant how such things can happen when talking about a totally factious world and the people, history, wars and stuff which happened in it.
Agreed. As much as I love Tolkien, it seems to me that ASOIAF is far more rich and detailed (and that is saying something...). GRRM has created the greatest fantasy that may ever be written, and I don't say that lightly...
Yea alot of series are like that not that I disagree you just seem to be overstating a bit
@FuckYouAllToPieces He took inspiration from War of the Roses to create the War of the Five Kings and the overall rivalry between the Starks and Lannisters (inspired the Yorks and Lancasters), however he took inspiration from plenty of other sources as well.

@@nwmartin1045 its not complete yet but the way it is, its one of the greatest and most complex series ever written, not just fantasy.
wow, this really makes GoT a small story in a small part of a giant world. There's so much more, so many possibilities and stories about unkown lands, creatures and cities. A shame this doesn't get any attention in like separate books or tv series. I hope someday it will, otherwise al this seems pretty pointless
SjoerdHammond I feel like after the show ends, they’ll do a spin-off of some sort. We only got one season left and there really is so much more. I guess one can only hope cause I’d love it. (Sorry bout late reply lol)
@@calloftheriven1303 hbo confirmed 4 spinoff series. i guess some didnt hear about this. first one is about the long night, the second one seems to be about the doom of valyria
The book and show are Westerocentric. Any fictional world out there has areas we know nothing about and don't really need to know.
@@middler5 indeed. Essos is a secondary part of the story. With Martin's rhythm of writing, we can't expect seeing the end of ASOIAF before years, so I'm hopeless for more books in Essos and the other continents afterwards. Martin has probably no desire to show us more of these lands, and will never explore further destinations there. Mysteries will stay unsolved.
also within a small time period, compared to the entire history.
We need an open-world video game set some time during the Targaryen dynasty, where you can explore the various regions across Westeros, and even travel to the Free Cities, or even beyond The Wall. Maybe it could be a 3rd-person RPG where you can choose your path as a noble, knight, etc.
George RR martin had to be on something. This is pure genius.
If I was to make lore like this, I'd go like this.
Come up with something
Why does it exist
Can it link to other things
What does it do
Why
Why
Why
Constantly ask it's purpose and it suddenly falls into place and becomes more realistic
DMT at work 🤣
I knew nothing about Essos or the land beyond Essos before this video, thanks. I will forward to all of my co-workers who watch the show as well.
That was awesome man! I had read most of the lore online before but this clarified a lot of it and made it much easier to understand geographically. Thanks!
I know more history of a tv series than the actual world we're living in.
Congratulations, you are now then officially living in a simulator
*Book series.

czcams.com/video/smauDPprQMU/video.html watch the perfect got ending!🙂
My nigga
This map has so much more series' potential. Would love a series about Essos!
it’s writeable. You already have all the world building, now you just need characters and intentions which is pretty easy in GoT
What Part of Essos? Free Citys, Dothraki, Slavers Bay, Valyria, Asshai, Quarth, Thousand Islands, Yi-Ti, ... ?
So in a nutshell, GRRM is the GOAT. dude's imagination is awesome
still not as incredible as tolkien tho
@@felixvergro i disagree. both are amazing and are not comparable
I wish he could imagine up two more books and finish the series.
David Denofrio 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😂😂😂😂😂 NICEEEEE
He's pretty good. But not as good as Tolkien. Tolkien's universe is way bigger and well furnished
Great geographic explanation dude although some cities didn’t gained the proper explanation such as old town or volantice but you explained the races in a very unique detail which encourages writers to write something about them
"he is said to have reigned for 10,000 yrs which makes the legend a bit hard to believe..."
uhh, who's gonna tell him?
i mean dragons and zombies are a thing so....

The geography of this world is endlessly fascinating to me
Sothoryos: "Imagine Amazon rainforest on Steroids". lol

That's not even mentioning the dinosaurs.

Excellent work - Thank you for posting this! Very much enjoyed the presentation - very professional and thorough.
When you thought the north beyond the wall was scary... can´t wait to see Sothoryos and Ulthos
Keep waitin', ol' Arr Arr Marrtin aint' gonna even finish GOT at the rate he's going
Idk why but the fact that Quarth, Vaes Dothrak and so on is sooo far away from Westeros is mindblowing to me. I always considered Essos as this kind of big desert with only a few tribes here and there, always a bit underdeveloped (exept for Bravos and stuff). I always thought the big citys like Mereen, Bravos, Pentos, Quarth and so on were located on the west coast, close to Westeros...
Qarth not Quarth
That's how Khal Drogo imagines westeros to be
Seven big islands floating on the sea for the seven kingdoms
As the Girl once wondered: 'So what's west of Westeros'?
the world is flat!
The east coast is Essos
Perhaps "America" is waiting to be descovered.
Apparently there was once a Stark king(centuries before the time of the show) who wondered that as well and built ships to explore the Sunset Sea. He was never heard from again.
Do you mean "Americos"
Thanks, man for all the work you put in these videos. Great job. Your videos made GOT a better experience for me.
I'm starting season 4 and this helped me to understand the series so much more. Thanks
So basically Sothoryos, ulthos and asshai are the more interesting and we don't know almost nothing about them xD
If you think about it, the White walkers are very interesting too, we just take them for granted now that the tv series and books focus on them so much. If the books and tv series focused on what was going on in eastern Essos instead for example, then we would probably be just as curious about Northern Westeros and the rumours of White walkers as we are curious now about the stuff going on in the other continents :)
Asshai sounds like it has had it's own doom because the land seems so wasted, hopefully we get a few stories on it to show what really happened there.
i like to think really that because these places are so far away most of these details are either untrue or extremely over exaggerated as well as people tend to do regardless a series focusing on the exploration of these places would be awesome
Don’t know almost nothing? So we know a fair bit
So how much is that? A normal amount or a lot much?
there are so many creepy places in eastern essos even beyond yi ti and asshai, we dont know much about the 5 forts other than there are 5 of them, the walls are made of slick black stone which is potentially dragonglass or some other material and the walls being taller and thicker than the wall in the north, then there is the city of winged men beyond the shadow lands. wish George would give us more details and info about these distant lands and what the hell is beyond the 5 forts that caused yi ti to need to build them to defend themselves
there should be a star wars style expanded universe, through independent authors and writers
grrm may not even know himself, who knows if he has written or even thought of the details to these places.
My memory might be a bit wonky but Yi Ti didn't build the forts ...they were there before the Empire ...
@@SquadPoop nope. We wouldn't want anyone to mess up anything about this world. Everything should be by RRM or no one else.
Since GoT world is a globe, then maybe Westeros and Essos are connected, with The Lands of Always Winter separating the two?
In the movies, the white walkers were made by the children of the forest. They pierced the heart of one of the first men with a dragon glass.
Because they were losing the war to the first men.
Essos is low-key more interesting than Westeros
i like videos like these. maybe if you are willing you could do like monthly videos on lore that isn't Westerosi. i like hearing about Sothoryos, Shadowlands and all the places you hardly hear about unless you dig really deep to find it. i think it enriches the whole aspect of GoT world as we know it. the only mysterious beings that are mentioned in the show are White walkers/the others, giants, the children. 3 of them out of around 15+.
That 10,000 ships with Nymeria had the worst luck with just one terrible stop after another. And of course the seemingly paradise of Naath had a deadly sickness spread by damn butterflies.
Butterflies? I always knew they were plotting the downfall of mankind.
@@doro626 and it's taking ages because their lives are short, no more than a year at best for some of them!

Everyone who has not yet seen the series, but will, should really see thus video first.
Also, I heard they’re making a few spin-offs, but I really would like to see a series taking place in Essos aswell
So basically, everyone in GoT is originally from Essos, but acknowledging Daenerys as “foreigner”... mkay
Well in our world it’s believed that humans came from Africa so we’re all African?
Ess Wye.
Reminds me of how some Americans are trying to keep other new “immigrants” from settling there, though their families once came from across the oceans as well.

@@zain4019 yes, that is what you do if you want to protect your nation. Most nations protect themselves from others. The West currently is a target.
@Emperor Pepe Flavius Memus It was never debunked though, its most likely true
There is so much to this game of thrones universe that they could literally create spinoff series about different parts of this world for the rest of my life and still have a lot uncovered. Would be cool if someday they made an open world game based on this universe, we're getting to that point where it could be possible on such a massive scale, wouldnt be suprised if we could have such a massive open world game within 10 years from now, just look at how much bigger open world games have become the last 10 years.
I love your videos so much, they may not come that often but in your case quality wins over quantity and you always do something that's special and not done by all the other got youtubers, keep it up 😍
basically westeros is eroupe and essos is asia
And Sothoryos is Africa and Ulthos is Oceania maybe or America
Westeros is great Britain
I think Westeros is based off of the UK with some European countries and Essos is Eurasia... I think Valyria is definitely based off of the Roman Empire and there are some Free Cities which seem more European.
@@awaywiththefaeries9464 you think?
@@awaywiththefaeries9464 Valyria the city, itself, seems like it was based off of Atlantis. Ghys seems like it was Carthage. Yi ti was ancient China. Bravos is Venice.

A song of ice and fire world and history is beyond the imagination. Can't belive how GRRM invented all this thing. He has either an abnormal imagination, or was inspired on something big but changed the style... Whatever, the more i read the more i get statisfied

Damn, idk which series is my favorite. But my top 3 are definitely
Lord of the Rings
Game of Thrones
and The Witcher

It's going to be awesome seeing Corlys go through some of these areas. Especially Yi Ti.
Love this. Your ambitions are well loved!
I literally got a neon ad for game of thrones season 8 when I loaded up this video it so well coordinated
The world and history are so interesting in this. I'd love a game or something on all this. Or maybe multiple TV shows depicting different time periods. I'd love to learn more about Valyria before it got destroyed, or why and how Asshai and Stygai exist and who created them. And the old on earth from YiTi or the people who might have lived in the city from the thousand islands. SO MUCH lore. Or even the peoples or gods or species that used to live in Sothoryos. There seems to be so much more there and for such a massive continent you'd expect some history and lore. And there's fucking Ulthos. So much lore that could be explored.
And then there's the fact that as a whole we know so little about the world of GoT. There could be hundreds of other continents and peoples and races and species that we never see.

Wow! This is mindblowing.

I just got goosebumps. Love your vids 😍👍👏
Jesus Christ, this map is so vast and has so many different races and factions going in it looks like GRRM planned it to be a 20 book series or making 4-5 different series out of it.
I knew Essos was large but I didn't even see a map showing that we only knew like 50% of it's western half of it and I've never heard or seen anything about those other 2 contintents at all. I must admit I have only read the first two books so far.
Elessar too bad he wont be able to flesh it all out, he is getting on in age

@@michaelvillemez1034 desperately waiting for the last two books and the truth...!
They probably did
@pyropulse probably
They did that in the show not in the book.
Fabulous. My new goal during the pandemic is to rewatch all the Games of Thrones read the books. Thank you.
love the video man, deserves a sub
This video is awesome because it makes it easy to see how Martin used the real world as inspiration for the GoT world. GRRM confirmed he used the war of the roses as a baseline for GoT. Using that fact, you can see that Westeros is the UK, the Iron Islands is Ireland, and Scotland is the North. My favorite overlap is how its pretty obvious that Valyria is the Roman Empire. Fits perfectly with both the description of the civilization AND its location. Which means Ghis is either referring to the Persian Empire or a combination of the Persian Empire/Greece (basing that on skin color/cultural description, location of both places, and the name Ghis and Greece. Also Persia hit its peek basically right before Rome started doing its thing so that fits perfectly with both real life and GoT as well.) Like I said...this video is super cool lol.
I hate how everyone depicts westeros as only the british isles if that was the case then how do you explain the similarities between dorn and spain, iron isles and denmark, the north and scandanavia .... just because they all speak english doesnt mean they are from england
I can see the Andals being like the Normans
Ghis. They build pyramids, hint, hint.
And the Dothraki are the Mongols. The Free Cities are the Italian city states.
@@alexbouffler8577 The Andals i'm pretty sure are the Angles who were a Germanic tribe who settled in England just after the Romans left.
Woah! That’s really cool just started watching game of thrones about 2 weeks ago and finished had no clue there was this much Detail
Thank you so so so so so so so so so so so so so so much you are the best CZcamsr I have ever seen
Very well done and here I still wait for the next book in the series.
I love how many of these places reflect real history. Westeros is similar to the British isles and the first men and andals were like invaders from mainland Europe, and the children of the forest are like the Celts. The Summer Isle reminds me of Japan, both their fates changed when an explorer’s vessel wandered into their harbors. The Dorne land bridge that used to connect Westeros with Essos is like the land bridge that connected Asia and North America.of course, Valyria was the Roman Empire of A World of Ice & Fire.
