For almost a decade Game of Thrones kept millions of fans from across the world on the edges of their seats as they watched the Great Houses of Westeros battle it out to sit on the Iron Throne.
WATCH NOW: House of the Dragon Season Two Trailer.
Ultimately after 73 episodes across eight seasons, it was Bran Stark who emerged as the first elected ruler of the Six Kingdoms.
And while we left that series with Westeros in relative peace, the Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon set some 200 years earlier introduces a new set of characters warring for the right to rule.
In season one of the prequel series, viewers are introduced to a new generation of Targaryens, including King Viserys who controversially names his daughter Rhaenyra heir after he is unable to produce a son.
After his wife Aemma dies during childbirth, the King remarries a much younger Alicent Hightower who gives the ailing King a male heir – a challenge to Rhaenyra’s claim on the iron throne.
While we don’t want to spoil anything from season one, it’s easy to imagine the type of chaos that ensues with multiple contenders fighting for their right to rule Westeros, especially with dragons involved.
