The family trees I made for this video are simplified versions that only include relative characters to the topic. The extensive trees with every character are on my channel!
You also forgot to mention this the Tully never was at the tourney of harrenhall the year of the false spring? It's a weird mystery, Cat's cousin were there and her father and her family never was there, Blackfish is a famous great warrior and he would take part in the the joust and the melee round.
Great breakdown video! Thank you 😊
dude give the Aegon V family tree a second look
The show mentions that Robert and targerns where related briefly
Eddard parents was cousins, so...
Jon Snow is actually the mother of Ser Davos.
JakeVil97 THANK YOU JFC i dont get why nobody else understands this i mean theres so much clues in the books its pretty much confirmed!
The Onion Mother Theory confirmed!
I fucking knew it! Their resemblance is uncanny
🤣🤣🤣🤣
JakeVil97 😂😂😂😂😂😂
So basically everyone's a kinslayer
The term kinslayer only refers as far as the first cousin. Once you're farther than that, it doesn't matter. Robb isn't a kinslayer for killing Rickard Karstark, even though he was his... third cousin once removed or something.
@@TsarofScars He was probably called kinslayer cuz Karstarks were branch family and were really close to the Starks.
@@liberator101 no Karstarks were founded at least 1000 years before asoiaf so while there surely were inter marriages there weren't close relation in like 100 hundred years.
@@pyron4913 well, I didn't know that
"all wars are civil wars, for all men are brothers"
Jon Snow and Gendry are third cousins. Wow.
For real? Please explain to me.
@@PeterParker-wj7vl gendry is Roberts son and and Jon is rhaegars son so there related because Roberts dad's mom was Targaryen
And Meister aemon of the nights watch was Targaryen so that makes aemon Jon's great great great uncle I think
@@abradolflincler4560 Maester Aemon is also the great great uncle of Robert, Stannis and Renly ! But, when there is a serie of incest like that, it's interesting because siblings are more than siblings, they share much more same DNA that normal siblings. That's why Jon Snow share 40% DNA with DAenerys, even if he is her nephew, they share almost as much DNA as brothers and sisters.
@Peter Parker since Rhaegar Targaryen and Robert Baratheon are 2nd cousins, that makes all of their children (by blood, of course) 3rd cousins to each other
there is one living Whent, but she's married to a Frey, and thats a death sentence on its own
Hasan Wilson yes it is! 🤣
And she's unfertile, so there's no continuing the Whent line on that side.
they're all cousins, the whole lot of them. i bet ghost and drogon are really third cousins. LOL
great content btw :)
Once removed...
Jon and drogon are cousins
@@vitamind5710 lol
If you think of ghost as Jon's son drogon is ghost's uncle
Reminds me of when you finish Naruto and realize everyone are basically first cousins 😂
I love how evil looking those early fan art depictions of Rhaegar are.
Because he is
@@godfathergaming2760 not really, he had good intentions and even before the whole prophecy shenanigan selemy himself told us how much of a good person rahegar was and he would have been a great king
Probably biased artists
@@Comet_373 I mean before the big reveal of Jon Snow parentage, most thought Rhaegar was a bad guy too
@@kimstew i mean even before that he was always said to be a good guy by selmi
House Whent are related to House Wayne from Gotham City
And dont forget the minor house , House Lil' Wayne, from the 504....
Descendes from one of the earliest families in Westeros... House Cayme.
So I did the math one night when I drunk and here's what I came up with. Jon's paternal grandfather killed his maternal grandfather and uncle. His paternal uncle-by-blood was killed by his paternal uncle-by-marriage, who was later mercy killed by his paternal aunt. His paternal cousins are dragons and his maternal cousin just spent a couple of seasons learning tree magic from his paternal greatx7 (or greatx6 maybe) uncle. His father was killed by Jon's second-cousin-once-removed. Also, Gendry is Jon's 3rd cousin. That isn't even considering the further confusion the show makes by cutting out a generation of Targaryens.
Caitlin Brewer dude how high are you??
Ocran Currently? Depressingly sober.
Classic kind of thing i also do when drunk
Raven is Aerys great uncle right? which would make him 4 times removed from jon. Or his great-great-great uncle only definitely not 6 or 7
Haha good shit, i never connected that
Due to the green sight abilities of northern nobility, Bran the Builder’s parents are actually Xaro Xhoan Daxos & Maggy the Frog.
You almost did it right
Bran the builder's grandfather is actually Garth greenhand , and his sons are the founders of house tarly and house Tyrell and most of the houses of the reach
So jon , sansa , rickon , bran , robb , arya
And margery , loras and sam are all descendants to Garth greenhand
@@nazimouachek2216 Not House Tyrell, they are of Andal origin.
Tyrells are related to Garth Greenhand from their female line per the appendix of book 1.
@@TheWatcher802 nerd
@YungMufasa I mean, if you've read Chapter 2 of the first book you know that, so.
Jon Snow has THE MOST f#@#@ up family tree in the series... God the bloodshed. Starks, Targaryens and Baratheons alone. No wonder he's depressed.
Jon doesn't have any Baratheon's blood though. He is a pure Stark from his mother, and a pure Targaryen from his father. The Targaryens do not have any Baratheon's blood in them. Robert had one drop of Targaryen from hid grandmother, but Rhaegar had no Baratheon in his ancestry at all, all of them were pure Targaryens from his family. Thus making Jon only Targaryen from his father's side, if he really is the son of Rhaegar.
It's never brought up but Aerys II and Rickard Stark(Ned's dad) were probably second cousins through their grandfather's Blackwood wives. Which makes Rhaegar and Lyanna third cousins(though a bit more related due to all the Targaryen incest).
Ayo this is gold right here
that's pretty cool, but Dwight Shrute says 3rd cousins and up are not considered incest. SO, we all good
@@SENazo-co9pz genetically, second cousins are pretty much strangers already.
Robert being related to the Targaryens also helped solidify his claim to the Iron Throne also it's confirmed that Orys Baratheon is the bastard half-brother of Aegon I. Read Fire & Blood and The World of Ice and Fire both great worldbuilding books.
Fin Mertons it did help solidify his claim, however, it was because of his grandmother Rhaelle Targaryen, King Aegon V’s daughter. Orys Baratheon was never confirmed as a dragonseed, although I do believe he was.
@@Hernameispamela George implied it heavily in the conquest chapters of Fire and Blood.
Daniel Lockett Fire and Blood is from the point of view of a maester and we know how trustworthy and honest and impartial they are [irony]. George’s words, not mine. He even says how maesters are corrupt in the form of Lady Dustin in ASOIAF. And as I said before, heavily implied is not confirmed. It was not even his Targaryen grandmother, but mostly his immense importance in the rebellion, as the instigator and face and name behind it, and obviously the fact that he was the one to kill Rhaegar, that got Robert his throne. Orys Baratheon had nothing to do with it.
@MAA RKK it's not stated but it's already evident by how Aegon and Orys's stories are so intertwined it could be a sort of metaphor how both the Baratheon and Targaryen bloodline are so intertwined and connected.
It's not confirmed at all but I do think that's because Orys didn't want to be known as a side brand of House Targaryen.
Jaehaerys I comments that it is said Orys was a half brother to Aegon, meaning that even that relatively recently, it wasn't common knowledge anymore.
Why are so many surprised about cousin marriages? Before the modern time, it never was considered incest and in a lot of countries it still isn't considered incest.
But still great video :)
aysseralwan well it is pretty fuckin weird tbh
pâgal Làdká yeah that is because we are seeing it through our modern eyes and definition of incest but this is supposed to be a fantasy world inspired by medieval times so it is weird but should not be surprising
Blackfeather 22 yeah that's what I said and why I don't understand that this is surprising for a lot of people
Ya the whole cousin thing is funny, I had a genetics professor that did a 23&me and traced his lineage. He found out that in a few places he had 1st cousins that married each other the closest being his great-grandfather. Anyway he gave us the formulas and made us do the math and actually showed us that there is actually a minuscule chance that any offspring between cousins would have any random and harmful genetic mutations aside from any prior genetic diseases the run in the family, and even then all it would take to "reset" this chance is to just have an offspring with someone outside the family. So all in all it is genetically ok to marry and have kids with your cousins, it's only when it's between brother and sister or more direct family members when genetic mutations have a higher chance of appearing. Sorry bout long post just wanted to say something a little interesting can't wait for last season of GoT
Ya muslims do.. (everyone's asshole just tightened up in the comments section).. ;)
Targeryen: I love this girl *marries her*
Baratheons: time for a rebellion
"This girl" was already promised to be married to Robert, and the guy who "loves" her had a wife and two kids who he left behind (annulling their marriage and making the children bastards) to marry "this girl", who some said is only chosen because the guy believes in fulfilling a prophecy.
At first when I read this, I thought about Lyonel Baratheon, whose daughter was bethroated to the son and heir of Aegon V, Duncan, but he broke the marriage pact and marry a commoner, Jenny of old stone, instead. So The outrage Lyonel declare himself a storm king and rebel. I guess the story resemble Robert’s, and GRRM put it there as a pararel
@@alphahollow5642 Lyonel the Laughing Storm was really cool.
Targ: *leaves Baratheon daughter/betrothed for other women*
Baratheon: So you chose death
Funny how the first rebellion’s ending resulted in rhaelle marrying into house Baratheon, which is the reason Robert had a royal claim in the first place.
I was binge watching this channel I just found when HOLLYSHIT IT'S MY DRAWING! It was a nice surprise to see it on a quality video and that I am referenced on the description. So many people just use whatever images they get on the web and pay no respect to the artists so good on you man! Subscribed!
Arthur Guttilla liar
@@sahirchowdhury4218 oof
which one?
@@jobowisheshewasnomo4171 at 4:05 the battle of the trident one. I did it back in 2012 so its a fairly old illustration for me...
@@arthurgwg I love how evil looking you made Rhaegar truly a hero slaying a villain
How about the fact that house Stark and Targaryen share common ancestry through house Blackwood.
Alysanne Blackwood and Betha Blackwood were a hundred years apart. I'd say it's safe to say the blood was rather diluted by that point.
@@TsarofScars Not Alysanne Blackwood, but rather with Melantha Blackwood who lived at the same generation as Betha Blackwood.
Wow that’s really cool I didn’t know that... house Blackwood is really cool, and I think Bloodraven has both Blackwood and Targaryen blood
@@aamirrazak3467 He does, as his mother was a blackwood
@@aamirrazak3467 Yes. Aegon Vths children were related to Bloodraven from both of his parents. Aegon V married a Blackwood as well as Aegon IV and his Blackwood mistress, thus siring Bloodraven. Aegon V had no qualms about punishing Bloodraven to the Wall, however. You also have the Martells marrying several times to the Targaryens: Rhaegar, Daeron and Daenrys. Whats funny is Baelor Breakspear married into the Dodarrion family and his sons died along with the king(their grandfather) of sickness, so no succession for his Martell side to have dark haired Targaryens on the throne.
The most interesting relatives are the Targaryens in my opinion. Daenaerys being Jon's aunt. Aemon Targaryen being her great-great-uncle, and Brynden Rivers (Bloodraven/The Three-Eyed Crow) being her great-great-great-great-uncle.
Aemon is her great grand uncle. Her great great uncles would be Baelor, Aerys I and Rhaegel. www.vox.com/culture/2017/7/17/15982450/house-targaryen-family-tree-fanart
daenerys and gendry are second cousins once removed. lol
That means Bran and Bloodraven are actually related. Wowzers.
@@hmulford3851 I was about to disagree, since for a moment I forgot about Jon's Stark mother, so they're related by marriage, though not by blood.
So Bran is Bloodraven's half brother's (Daeron the Good) great great great great grandson's maternal cousin.
Did you know that Tywin Lannisters has a brother in Law from house Frey?
It isnt exactly hidden. That is why Tywin lets tge Freys have Riverrun. His sister is married to it's new Frey lord. In the show they just give it to Walder.
Everyone has a brother in law from House Frey
And his grandmother is Rohane Webber.
Skozerny except Starks
And that Frey always regrets the day his father suggests the idea of marrying a sister to Tywin lannister.
Did you just use Sleeping Beauty's silhouette as the Hightower lady's representative 😂😂
Real medieval families did marry cousins, it was considered normal. Every European monarchy were related to each other to do arranged marriage for alliances.
Edit: inbreeding does causes genetic and organ failures.
soyon manlai it was pretty common until the 1900s
Not first cousins though. That was frowned upon, I am pretty sure.
@@am5527 no first cousin marriage was very common amongst royals and the nobility in particular.
Mixing genetics with cousins is still dangerous, not as dangerous as siblings but still possibility for a rotten offspring.
Many English kings were actually German monarchy as the British one became too inbred
Cousin marriages are common in westeros, while 1st cousin marriages (tywin and Joanna) are typically frowned on, they're not as disturbing as sibling marriage. Nobody seems to care if it's 2nd cousin or beyond
Letty Martyr hell they were common in our time
In our world 3rd cousins is not considered incest.
Source? I don't recall any instance of 1st cousins marriage being frowned upon in ASOIAF world.
Gotta keep that blood pure so when the genetic disease kicks in it kills the kid harder than Robert killed Rhaegar.
i think cousin marriages not bad my dad and mom are cousin too
"Shocked that even this honorable family had some incest going on". The Lannisters?? NOWAY!
well these are all ancient families that have supposedly survived thousands of years and they constantly marry into each other's families.
I like Mace. He sings good :)
Also he loves his kids and seem pretty ok.
He's a good pearson, he just doesn't know how to play game of thrones (lucky for him, he got badass mother)
He gave Bobby b his first defeat and laid a siege at storm's end
@@godfathergaming2760 That was Randyll Tarly, who was acting on Mace's orders. Mace personally taking command of the siege of Storm's End likely doomed it to failure - it would take someone like Randyll to beat the likes of Robert or Stannis.
What’s really interesting is that even though the Whents are the Tully siblings cousins or nephews they didn’t go to the tourney at Harrenhal which I always found odd
Jon is cousins with gendry, edric and shireen
Jon and Sam are both related to Shireen. lol
Maya stone too...
@@alexanderskaarolsen4918 Jon is the son of Rhaegar Targaryen. The Targaryens and Baratheons are closely related (which is why Robert could support his claim to the throne), and Gendry, Edric and Shireen are all of course children of the Baratheon brothers.
Also Drogon, by technicality.
@@dirandrous7682 Drogon isn't technically a person, so Drogon isn't really part of the family tree, yes yes you can say Drogon was adopted by Dany but that isn't really how I'd see it.
The two Baratheon queens of early in the WoTFK (Selyse and Margaery) are related. Margaery and bros' other grandmother is Rhea Florent, a first cousin of Selyse. And by way of Rhea Florent, Sam is a first cousin once removed of Margaery and her brothers. So everyone from the Reach is related to everyone else from the Reach.
Rhea Florent is Leyton’s fourth wife and if you consider that Alerie is of similar age with Mace (who was of similar age with Rhaegar) and that Rhea’s father seems to also be about the same age as Alerie, if a few years older, then it’s almost sure that Alerie isn’t Leyton’s daughter with Rhea, but one of his other wives. Also, another thing… if Margaery was Rhea’s granddaughter then she would be Alester’s great granddaughter. By him supporting his niece’s husband’s claim instead of his (alleged) great granddaughter’s husband’s claim, it is confirmed that he is not related to her.
Everyone is related
KamboKelvin More incest
Super Incest
@@piuscalvinus Thats the thing about incest, its all relative.....
It is incest but scientist actually prove anything beyond second cousin equals efficient breeding meaning no mix genes which mean with you fuck your second cousin the child won’t be fucked up and it ok if you want swing that way but yeah but still gross of GoT abuse it
Game of thrones is so balance with the story and people like understand it world way more than this world
House Targ, House Stark, and House Baratheon are related by their Blackwood blood.
Melatha Blackwood married Willam Stark; they're Great-Great-grandparents of Eddard Stark
Betha Blackwood married Aegon Targ V, they're Great-grandparents of Dany, Robert, Stannis, and Renly.
There's a good chance that Melatha and Betha were cousins or sisters.
On a side note Alyssa Blackwood the fourth wife of (Lord) Walder Frey, making their children, Lothar, Jammos, Whalen, Morya and Tyta Frey (and all of their kids, including Big Walder Frey) related to the Starks, Targ, and Baratheon in someway.
No wonder bloodline madness and stupidly run deep in the family.
This would make Lyanna and Rhaegar third cousins once removed. But given Ned is a generation younger than Aerys, it probably means the 2 Blackwoods were aunt and niece, which would make R+L fourth cousins.
Huge fan of you and I've only discovered you recently. I'm ASOIAF nerd and generally, cannot get enough, even from the show. And I've been linking a lot of your videos to my shownly friends and family. All that aside, I would love for you to break down the Tourney at Harrenhal and everything around it. As well as some theories surrounding it, like the aforementioned conspiracy of the Last Dragon, Rhaegar Targaryen.
Woah! This is such a unique and interesting topic, I don't think any other channels have covered it. Keep up the great work man, you really are the best channel out there covering ASOIF/GOT! :)
Watch altshiftX
Harrold hardying is a great-nephew to Lord Jon Arryn. Jon Arryn's father, Lord Jasper Arryn, had two sons and a daughter. Jon was the eldest of the three. He became the Lord of the Eyrieafter his father's death. Jon's younger brother, Ronnel, died at the same time his son Elbertwas being born. As Jon Arryn himself had no children, Elbert became his heir. In 282 AC, Elbert was killed by King Aerys II Targaryen.
Harry the Heir's such a dick tho.
It gets better: Robin Arryn and Timmett, Son of Timett, are first cousins.
@@stevenhancock2822 ..How?
@@andreasballe7470 Harry the Heir's mother was the fifth of five daughters, married to a landed knight in service of House Waynwood. The fourth, an unnamed daughter of Elys and Alys Arryn, was on her way to marry a Bracken when she was abducted the Burned Men. We learn from Tyrion that Timett, son of Timett, is a man, but not yet 20 years old. His father likely would have kept the niece of Lord Arryn for himself... You see where this is going.
@@stevenhancock2822 It's possible but it's also unlikely at the same time, I like this theory ALOT but.. you know, I don't believe it.
I like your videos of family trees. Can't wait for "Fire and Blood" in November.
It was great,right?
Finally somebody did a video on this!!!
Brown Ben Plumm is related to Rennifer Longwaters, the jailer Jaime questions in A Feast for Crows. They both have Elaena Targaryen, one of Baelor I's sisters imprisoned in the maiden vault, as their ancestor. Elaena had a bastard child with Alyn Velaryon named Jon Waters, and his son changed his name to Longwaters to show he wasn't a bastard like his father. Elaena then married a man named Viserys Plumm, which is how Brown Ben Plumm is related to him.
i love your content. you really go deep into the books.
I really enjoy your videos. I just found them, and they're quite entertaining.
Soul of cinder soundtrack in the background. Nice
I love the lord of cinder theme in the back
I love this type of video!
You missed almost all Northern Houses and their relations. Like Lady Barbery Dustin being the Aunt of Domeric Bolton.. I'm so sad he never made it as a character in the books or show and we had to have stupid Ramsay.. Domeric would have made such a cool addition to the Bolton story line, including being loyal to the Starks..
Domeric may sound like a cool and decent guy, but don't forget his the son of Roose Bolton. Loyalty can be tricky in sometimes
True, but Roose wasn't evil like Ramsay. He fought hard for Ned against the Mad King and again for Rob. He didn't know how the future would go and once Rob screwed up by marrying that "tight fit" and all his allies started to bail, Roose knew the cause was lost. Domeric was a straight up good hearted boy which Roose never forgave Ramsay for taking from him.. You never heard tales of Roose like you did Ramsay, A quiet land and a quiet people..
aaronwallerj
The frey were not trustworthy and the truth is the stark made a bad decisions of being independents, and the war would only end if stannis won the battle of blackwater, or renly still lived and still had the reach. Tyrion got wildfire if any army came, they be burned alive like stannis navy fleets got burned, plugs northmen bannermen knew Robb cause was lost the moment when Lannister and Tyrrell became friends, they both super rich and has over numbers of soldiers well armored and trained. The vale will never support the stark/tully because if littlefinger and they got ironborn raids on the north, all this was enough to backstabb Robb and the Tully, even if Robb fulfilled his promises and not crowned, the cause was lost when stannis lost and lannister got alliance like reach, dorne, and surrendered stormland to the lannister. North/rivers are no match against lannister and tyrells, Baratheon.
aaronwallerj
Roose the same guy who raped Ramsey's mom and killed her husband. Yes he is a real nice one
@@Skelstoolbox There's strong evidence in the texts that Roose was playing the long game from his very first battle. Even from the first time he met Tywin's host in battle, he put men loyal to Robb Stark out front, and kept his own men in the reserve, and retreated with them mostly intact after he lost the fight. Not exactly disloyalty, but definitely stacking the deck in his own favor.
I love all those dark souls ost in your videos haha
I think the girl Jaeharys married is Jenny of Oldstones, the woman who Podrick sang the song of in Season 8.
No, Prince Duncan (at the time heir to Argon V) married Jenny and gave up his claim to the throne. Then his brother Jaehaeris (later Jaehaeris II) became the heir. But he also rebelled against his parents' plans to marry him to a Tully and instead married his sister Shaera who was engaged to a Tyrell!
There is SO much great stuff in the books... why are we watching D & D drivel is beyond me :(.
Duncan - Jenny of Oldstones
Jaeharys - His sister Shaera, parents of the mad king.
Daeron - was gay, was supposed to marry Olenna Redwyne, who became Olennna Tyrell
Rhaelle - Ormund Baratheon, grandparents of Robert, Stannis and Renly.
The 5 kids of Aegon V.
On the Targaryen-Baratheon family tree, it says Ormund is the child of Aegon, instead of Rhaelle
C.o.R Not Aegon, but Gaymon...Argon’s father. Son of Anynes
Didn't Rickard Stark marry his cousin
Yes, Lyarra Stark
The One Tom that's what I thought
Lyarra stark's father was Rodirk stark the wandering Wolf, and he even one time mentioned to have joined the Second sons sellsword company?
Plenty of Starks married their nieces too.
1st cousin once removed, but yeah.
Tywin and Joannas heritage is just a small circle😭
Sooner or later those family trees would turn into family circles...
Soul Of Cinders theme fits perfectly for this
Poor Jon Snow, his dad is his uncle, his aunt is his mom and his girlfriend is his aunt
PS : And his grandfather killed his other grandfather, his brother is Aegon and so is he
His HALF-brother is Aegon.
I swear I heard Brianna and hodor are both descendent of sir Duncan the tall
I'm not quite sure about Hodor, but GRRM all but confirmed trat Brienne is a descendant of Ser Duncan the Tall.
He says one of the characters in ASOIAF is a descendant of Ser Duncan. And in FEAST, Brienne remembers finding a shield with Ser Duncan's sigil on it on Tarth.
It would be a fun idea to you to make a video about all major relatives from Jon Snow.
Olly is actually the father of Gregor Clegane
Aegon the Unlikely married Betha Blackwood, daughter of Lord Blackwood in 220 AC and Willam Stark, Eddard's Great-Grandfather, married Melantha Blackwood between the yrs 200-225. Betha and Melantha could have been sisters, cousins or aunt and niece. But it does mean Rheagar and Lyanna were (somewhat distant) blood relations
That Soul of Cinder theme tho 😩😩
if u check Targaryens' family tree u will see that besides Baratheons the closest relatives of Daenerys are Blackwoods since Betha Blackwood is Aerys's grandmother, but when u compare that tree with the Starks' tree u will see that Eddard's great grandmother was also Blackwood (lady Melantha), and it is very possible that Betha and Melantha were sisters witch means that Starks are one of the closest relatives of Dany. It would make also Lyanna and Rhaegar third cousins
Yet another great video and still no patron page.
3:28 There's a mistake: Rhaelle should be connected with Aegon V and Ormund not
Great video. Did you know the first guy to die in game of thrones is the son of yohn Royce
On the show, if you follow the Baratheon tree, Daenerys is the Baratheon heir the throne. (Tge gave the throne to Robert bc his Targ grandma. Daenerys and Bob/Ren/Stan are cousins. If we are only counting trueborn, Dany is the heir.)
So when Ned changed the wording on Robert's last will from "my son Joffrey" to "my rightful heir", he pretty much legitimized Dany's invasion in season 7? That's hilarious. XD
@@tarvoc746 no. When Dany invades, Joffrey is already dead, making that letter completely irrelevant.
@@deg1studios ...That's not how feudal legitimacy works. If family relations actually are like Mike N describes them, Ned's change of words would actually have put Dany not just before Joffrey in the inheritance line, but ahead of literally everyone else, including people like Robert's brothers. Or at least that's one possible interpretation.
@@tarvoc746 I know this is late lol.
A brother can be a "rightfulheir" too. There is no reason for Stannis or Renly to be skipped. But in the show, of course, they're both dead.
@@deg1studios Yeah sure. That isn't the issue _here_ though. We're not comparing Stannis or Renly to Joffrey's claim, but to Dany's.
Lynesse Hightower looks to be related to sleeping beauty as well 😂
In the books, Gendry almost unknowingly had sex with his half-sister. Gendry, Arya and the brotherhood without banners once spend a night in an inn that doubled as a brothel. In that same town, the battle of the bells took place, an important battle in Robert's rebellion. A young whore named Bella offered her service to Gendry, a woman who claims to be Robert's bastard daughter, conceived during the battle (Robert was injured and hiding until Ned and his troops arrived). Gendry refused.
Arya though that, while it was true that Bella looked a lot like Robert, many people had the Baratheon looks, citing Gendry as an example that those traits are fairly common.
Mind blow!
Did you know that the all famous "Does anybody here have any objections?" during a marriage is based on "Does anybody here know if these people are cousins?". Something that was always said during forced marriages after the 5th century when the law still said a widow must marry her dead husbands brother but they already introduced laws against first and second degree cousin marriage.
Ok, but how are Tywin and Joanna suprising?
On the Whents, Walder Frey also married a Whent woman, Sarya, as his 5th wife between Alyssa Blackwood (mother of Lothar and others) and Bethany Rosby (mother of Perwyn, Olyvar, Roslin and 2 more sons) but they had no kids. So there’s some connection there too.
I was shocked, when I learned that with the swiss right I could marry my cousin but not my adoptive sibling.
That would make Gendry cousin to both John and Daenerys and 3rd in line to the Iron Throne.
Not really since he is an unrecognized bastard, Edric is more probable
@@luizfelipevbf5567 All they need is a royal decree. In the show it would have to be Bran Stark. The books....?
The most interesting connection for me is that hodor is the great grandson of Duncan the Tall with old nan.
i'm pretty sure Brienne is also related to Duncan the tall to.
Fun fact, Lyonel B. Robert's great grandfather declared himsekf a Storm King
Sam and Jon are both cousins of Shireen.
WHY IS THE SOUL OF CINDER THEME PLAYING IN THE BACK
4:12 this looks commissioned by the Whoremonger King himself!
Jon Snow is also very related to Robert since he's the son of Rhaegar who's Roberts cousin
checkout one of Jamie's pov chapters from feast of crows I believe where he meets his aunt who's married to a Frey and is waiting for riverrun and makes some weird allusions that Tyrion might not be true born and how when she brought it up to tywin he didn't talk to her for many years
If the theories are true, then Tormund is possibly Lyanna mormont’s father. He fucked “bears” and was known to venture what he referred to as the south (the north in Westeros) and Lyanna’s mother had daughters with no father. I’m not sure but I think they had red hair as wekl
Gendry and Jon are related
Aegon the 5ths wife was betha Blackwood. In the stark family tree there is a Blackwood wife of the stark lord. So technically everyone in the main story is related. The Starks, Baratheons, Daenerys, and Jon are all related.
Through Aemma Arryn, Houses Targaryen, Baratheon, and Martell have Arryn blood.
Soul of Cinder boss fight music!
The Heirs to house Went are the Stark children. In a sense, the current lord of Harrenhall is the guardian for the apparent (since Bran and Rickon appear to be dead to the world) best claimant to Harrenhall.
I believe there is an error in the family tree @ 3:30, shouldn't the tree connect to the baratheons @ rhaelle, not Ormund? The funny thing is that the first baratheon was a targaryen bastard so ormund does have target blood.
Ratchet4647 thats a little tree mistake
The rumor about Orys Baratheon being a bastard were just rumors- probably started because he was not nobility at all at the beginning and people got jealous.
Rhaenys and Visenya have almost zero reaction to their supposed half brother, which would be strange in their family.
@@SantomPh "fire and blood" confirmed that he was definitely a bastard half brother to aegon
Saurabh Banik it’s not confirmed, just says it was believed.
Jon Snow. Jon's blood tree need only go back 4 generations to trace his warging ability: 5/16 Blackwood, 4/16 Targaryen, 2/16 Stark, 1/16 Locke, 1/16 Royce, and 3/16 unknown parts by blood.
2:34 anyone noticed that the silhouette for the Lynesse Hightower is Sleeping Beauty?
The mountain killed Jon Snow's real half brother and sister.
After reading all the comments I'm like "everybody is human"....so there's that connection...
Is that Soul of Cinder I hear?
I just barely started reading the TGOT books so I’ll be back when I found out who’s related to who lol
It is amusing that one of the characters with the most badass sounding name, Mace Tyrell, is also one of the biggest weenies in the story
The Tyrells are known from being rich because they produce the food of Westeros. Tyrells are (rich) farmers, not fighters.
@Adversary VR he basically bought his title.
Daenerys is cousins with Shireen, Gendry, Edric Storm and Mya Stone...
Bella Rivers , Barra Waters...
Cousin marriages were actually quite common for most of human history, not least during the middle ages. It’s also mostly not been seen as incest until relatively recently
Well the people who are shocked, obviously don't know how medieval marriage customs work. It was perfectly normal to intermarry cousins with one another. The taboo of marriages within a broader family is a modern phenomenon.

All these cats are related some how LOL!!!!
Sansa Stark's future intended husband in the books, Harrold Hardyng, is also her discount cousin. Ned Stark's grandaunt Lady Jocelyn Stark married Lord Benedict Royce of House Royce of the Gates of the Moon and had by him 3 daughters who later married into the Waynwoods, Corbrays and Templeton. Harold Hardyng is the son of a knight from House Hardyng and the daughter of Ser Elys Waynwood and Lady Alys Arryn, sister to the late Lord Jon Arryn.
So does that mean Cerseis kids are siblings, first cousins, AND third cousins? And if Joffrey had had a child with Margery who technically still was his aunt by marriage (doubly) would Tommen be the kids uncle, first cousin once removed, third cousin once removed, first cousin by marriage and later his/her stepfather? Also the kid would be Danys second cousin once removed through her connection to Renly (her second cousin) and thus Margery. Furthermore if we pretend Dany and Jon will indeed marry, the child would be his second cousin once removed by marriage (triply) and third cousin by marriage (doubly) right?
Ned Stark`s parents Rickard and Lyarra are causins once removed
Also two of Cregan's sons married their nieces.
Cregan Stark is my favorite Stark Lord BTW I`m not shure abour Lyarra Stark but did you know that his other wifes Arra Norey and Black Ally Blackwood are mariges for love Arra Norey was Cregan`s best friend and child love and he fell in love whit Ally allmost instantly I don`t know about his fielings to Lyarra Stark
Jonnel and Edric Stark to be exact Jonnel`s second wife was Sansa Stark the daughter of Rickon Stark and Jayne Munderly Edric married Rickon and Jayne`s furst daughter Serena
I feel like Robert Mentioned once that he had Targeryen blood. IIRC it was a bit of a throw away line, so maybe I'm confusing it with something I've heard from the books with the show.
well it's distant but there's Lyarra Stark and Rickard Stark (Neds parents) who were first cousins once removed (Lyarra was Rickards greatuncles' daughter). Then there's Jocelyn stark (Neds greataunt) who had three daughter with a Royce, the daughters married A Waynwood (unlikely to be the mother of Anya Waynwood, but mayhaps her husband) a Corbray (who perhaps is Lyn Corbrays mother) and a third might have married a templeton (Possibly Symond Templetons mother, which would make him Neds second cousin).
Similarly, the Targaryens are distantly related to the houses of Dayne, Blackwood and to the Martells , due to marriages between Maekar, Aegon V and Daeron II.
Also, due to the whole "by law" thing westeros has going on in regards to family,
Jorah Mormont is the legal uncle of Joffrey and Tommen through their marriage to Margeary
Jon Snow is actually related to Rhaegar Targaryen because he’s his son. Not many people know this.
Ilny Payne and Podrick Payne, don’t know how I’ve never noticed it
Cousins, I think
