@@m.williams4971 Bro I am talking about the fandom. I have seen so many people on Twitter and Reddit that love to disregard Jaehaerys's accomplishments and give the entire credit to Alysanne/Sept Barth. They make it out like that Jaehaerys was some stupid brat who luckily became King and give the wildest theories ever.
Jaehaerys did great things. He also enormously weakened the Throne; the Great Council. Sounds like a good idea to us, to ensure a suitable heir that won’t cause problems and it’s more democratic so we’re biased towards it. It’s actually a horrible idea. Jaehaerys gave the nobles the actual precedented right to decide who was King, and he hugely undermined one of the most basic rights of a King. To name his own vassals. If a King cannot even claim the right to name his heir then how can he name his vassals? It would’ve been better for the dynasty if he chose Rhaenys, not because she would’ve been great because there’s no way of knowing, but because he wouldn’t have given away so much authority to the nobles. It would’ve been even better if he chose Viserys. An heir people would accept 𝘢𝘯𝘥 by word of the King. But any choice at all would’ve been better than simply refusing to choose.
Rhaegar did something similar by training with Ser Arthur and Ser Barristan. Also, saying Jahaerys could defeat Maegor is a high praise. Maegor was one of the best Targaryen warriors in history.
@@DMES-wp2fj ah yes.. They don't cover this much about Maegor. He became a squire at the age of eight. By the age of twelve, he was already unhorsing boys four and five years his elder in the lists and battering seasoned men-at-arms into submission in the castle yard, and by thirteen was was defeating hardened knights in melees. Visenya gave him Dark Sister at thirteen. By sixteen he was knighted by Aegon I. He helped take down the Pirate King, after accompanying two campaigns into the Steps. He defeated the Giant of the Trident (a rogue knight in similar to tge Mountain and Smiling Knight) a few years after that. All of this before he claimed Balerion.
Jeaherys kept the realm at peace because he was wise, strong but kind at the same time. Dont take his kindness for granted. My man was real G. One wrong sentence and you are done😅. I cant remember a scenario where he was scared or intimidated by someone.
@@user-ob4sq6fi3s Viserys was almost as weak. They were like a repeat. Viserys couldn’t make a decision to save his life. Someone always made them for him and made him think it was his idea. “Puppet king”
@@user-ob4sq6fi3s Maegor was always stronger than Aenys in every way and yet he fought his brother’s wars while Aenys threw parties and went meekly into exile when his brother sent him. At any time he could’ve overthrown Aenys and no one could’ve stopped him; he didn’t. I don’t believe your assessment of Maegor’s opinion is wrong, but I do think he held some affection for him. Daemon thought Viserys was weak too.
Well in a society based on medieval Europe, old age was a rare luxury. A person in his late 40s/early 50s was something to behold. Especially if he was still fit
The Kingsguard was flattering Jaehaerys. If you want to know what happens when a huge, powerful, born warrior with immense experience and training meets a smaller foe who trained but doesn’t have a natural inclination just recall Robert and Rhaegar. Rhaegar was good, he trained hard, he could probably take on most foes. But against a stronger man with talent as well as training he died. Same thing with Jaehaerys.
I love how ppl constantly call Jaehaerys a terrible father & Alysanne is never mentioned Edit: They were decent parents overall. Daenerys, Aemon, Baelon & Alyssa were treated fantastic. Maegelle, Vaegon & Daella were treated alright overall. Saera would've been a problem no matter her circumstances but her parents didn't do her much favors. Viserra was treated poorly & let down by her parents as was Gael.
And the reason Jaharris fought Boris one on one was because he didn’t think it was right for brother to fight brother but Boris is older brother also fought a trial by combat one on one against the vulture king and won and they ended the rebellion Borises rebellion was against his older brother because he had been named heir to stormsend but then his brother had a son and he went went down the line of succession and didn’t like that and joined up with a Dornis pirate called the vulture king
The greatest Targaryen king by far, even greater than Aegon I, Aegon was a conqueror and military mastermind and even a fair diplomat, but after his conquest left most of the ruling up to his sister and small council, but Jahaerys was the best ruler, statesmen, fair and benevolent but not pliant or easily manipulated, stern but not cruel, raised people to positions of power not bc of nepotism or political alliances but bc of their personal merit, he was a great husband who ruled with his queen instead of ruling her, he tried to be a great father and example to his children despite most of them being absolutely wild and unmanageable, most Targaryens are on the spectrum greatness to madness somewhere in the middle or leaning slightly or even radically in one direction bust still not at it most outmost points, but Jahaerhys was as much at zenith of greatness as Aerys was at the most extreme depth of madness, when they say the gods flip a coin when a Targaryen is born and it either comes up greatness or madness the 2 sides of that coin have Jahaerhys and Aerys faces on each side.
King Jaeherys was the one and only truly worthy Targaryon King, including Aegon the Conqueror himself. His one and only error was failing to protect his succession.
@@Dapryor the only bad child he had was Saera who was always entitled and spoiled. He had other children that everybody loved so what does that say about him
Spoiler so don’t read on: Hugh hammer rides vermithor, in case your only a show watcher it was the blacksmith that asked aegon for more support with coins in episode 2, and his wife was shown making him food in their house
Should have let Rhaenys become his heir, married his grandchildren off with one another or encouraged his kids to have more children/remarry when that option was presented.
49 is not that old. The grand masters in the martial arts are more dangerous in old age, than in their prime. Leonidas, King of Sparta was around 60 when he died leading the 300.
Yeah but was he actually fighting well at 60 or was he just commanding men well. There’s a lot more to war than actually being the one swinging the sword
49 is not old in modern times. But during the Middle Ages that would have been old. And the story takes place with science and medicine is pretty much equal to that time. Just with some magic
@@DJ-vk4rp As far as I know that's a common misconception. People did become older, like 70s. The difference in mortality rates from then to now was that infants and mothers often died from childbirth, not that people also died from diseases, war etc. but old age was possible.
He also didn't train with 1 person it was his kingsguard who trained him I believe it was either like 4 at once until he was able to beat all of them you need to go through the book again because alot if this was wrong it really made me upset iblisyen to his part of fire and blood so many tines on audible
And yet, after all those amazing things that he has done as a leader, he still made the poor choice that led to the destruction of his family bloodline.
In reality yes, but for all the supposed effort GRRM’s world is still wildly unrealistic. He goes hyper-brutal for “realism”, when it makes no sense and isn’t realistic; but when it’s characters he needs it doesn’t happen even though it 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 be realistic.
The crime that Braxton Beesbury was facing trial by combat for was having consensual sex with Jaehaerys's daughter, Saera. The two were bully types and got up to legitimately harmful things together (pranking a fool at a brothel) but ultimately his trial was about sex. This is not normally what happens with premarital sex - Braxton and Saera's four friends who were involved got to get married off (two to each other) and one got ten years of exile. Alysanne's female sworn shield Jonquil Darke held Saera down and forced her to watch Braxton die. IMO this cemented her later decision to run away and cut contact. So while it may show good combat skills, it was a horrific event where he was essentially a 'touch my daughter and I'll shoot you' dad
Aegon targaryen put house baratheon on the map yet they betrayed the targaryens twice they're the worst out of the 7 houses not to mention the last two baratheons stannis and renly had each other killed hope gendry could bring honor back to his house
@CoCoNutShovel it's hard to say. The Conqueror didn't face any renowned fighter in single combat. As the son of the king, Maegor would have received better instruction in combat than his father did, and he had a chip on his shoulder growing up to be the best warrior. His trial by seven was no easy fight. Aegon doesn't have similar scenarios to put his fighting skills to the test.
@@theophilussogoromo3000 True, that’s why I said an argument could be made for Aegon I because he was said to be one of the greatest fighters of his age
If he put rhenys on the throne dance would have arrived earlier as daemon was ready to overthrow her and corlys was ready to protect her. Actually viserys failed were jahearys won
Rhenys was never going to be on the thrown. For some reason the show changed that. It was her son who was the other option besides viserys. And he only did it because if he didn't he would be going against the precedent that made him king himself
@@spiritualwolf55she was in line. The argument being that the eldest child of the heir precedes all others. Still murky though because the proclaimed heir was not the eldest child when he was born nor when he died. Visy’s father was named heir and in a perfect world he lives and becomes king making Visy the heir in a way that didn’t require a counsel. Raenys’ marriage is what hurt her claim as her children were not Targs. That made it easier for her to be passed over even though she was the eldest child of Visy’s uncle Aemon
And grandfather. He refused to show the love and acknowledgment he showed to his other kids to Saera and Viserra. Married Daella early which caused her to die birthing Aemma. Tried to force Viserra to marry a guy 3 times her age Manderly Lord who already had heirs, which got her to have her horse throw her off of it and kill her. Pampered and kept Gael locked up that eventually which got her incredibly naive and manipulated by a mummer that ended up with her and her stillborn child drowning in the Blackwater. When Aemon died instead of naming Rhaenys (Aemon’s heir and daughter) princess of Dragonstone he passed her over for Baelon. When Baelon died he purposely caused the Great Council so she wouldn’t get the Throne. He fucked up his family and in his last moments thought that the daughter he abandoned Saera came back to him after he insulted her openly and mockingly. He got what he deserved. Pain.

Rhenys was never going to be on the thrown. For some reason the show changed that. It was her son who was the other option besides viserys. And he only did it because if he didn't he would be going against the precedent that made him king himself
@@spiritualwolf55she was in line. The argument being that the eldest child of the heir precedes all others. Still murky though because the proclaimed heir was not the eldest child when he was born nor when he died. Visy’s father was named heir and in a perfect world he lives and becomes king making Visy the heir in a way that didn’t require a counsel. Raenys’ marriage is what hurt her claim as her children were not Targs. That made it easier for her to be passed over even though she was the eldest child of Visy’s uncle Aemon
The story should've taken a little step back so that we can see Jahaerys glorious days and balerion being ridden by Viserys
He would 1 v 7 the kings guard having all of them attack him at once.
Not the best father and didn't see the danger of oldtown
Was he the best King? Nice short.
Old age of 49
The hbo can make 5 seasons series all about Jaehaerys life
They could have just added it to house of the dragon if they were going to do that
OH SHIT!!! THE OLD KING IN THE BEGINNING OF HOTD WAS THE SAME ONE WHO KILLED BRAXTON BEESBURY?????
Their greatest is ng
What do I think when I hear his name? I remember how shitty of a dad he was… especially to his daughters.
Jaehaerys might have become a good warrior, but he was never half the warrior Maegor was.
the one thing i dont like about him is that he talks too much. sometimes i was "okay you made your point, now shut the fuq up!"
Are you Talking about Viserys? I havent read the books if he talks there But he isnt in the show
@@Real_gandalf yeah, there's one part where he takes his step dad to feed his dragon, jaehaery does not stop talking.
but its all myth right
Maeghor low diff
Dumbledore?
Not clever.
Wtf its fictional
Fake info😅read the Damm book 📚 lol
A bad dad
Mediocre king
AI garbage
The true Queen was his sister the first daughter and child of Rhenys. Queen of West. Who push aside by the Andals.
Wasn't he a bad father?
Too busy running a kingdom. His kids ran wild😂
And grandfather. He refused to show the love and acknowledgment he showed to his other kids to Saera and Viserra. Married Daella early which caused her to die birthing Aemma. Tried to force Viserra to marry a guy 3 times her age Manderly Lord who already had heirs, which got her to have her horse throw her off of it and kill her. Pampered and kept Gael locked up that eventually which got her incredibly naive and manipulated by a mummer that ended up with her and her stillborn child drowning in the Blackwater. When Aemon died instead of naming Rhaenys (Aemon’s heir and daughter) princess of Dragonstone he passed her over for Baelon. When Baelon died he purposely caused the Great Council so she wouldn’t get the Throne. He fucked up his family and in his last moments thought that the daughter he abandoned Saera came back to him after he insulted her openly and mockingly. He got what he deserved. Pain.
@@nahlataha1744 It was Alysanne who betrothed Viserra to that old dude who already had 3-4 dead wives. And again, it was Alysanne who spoiled and pampered Daela.
Blud is an anime character
Old age at 49😂
The pen is not mightier than the sword. Mighty is the hand that knows when to pick up the sword or the pen.
