“Raise the black dragon proudly high From northern snows to the reaches sky Let every man his battle cry Be arise, arise for Daemon See his small but loyal band With Bittersteel they make a stand And each man swears By heart and hand To stand and fight for Daemon”
The biggest shame of the Blackfyre Rebellion is that both Daemon and Dareon where great leaders and even better men. They showed honor and respect and had it not been for their councilors whispering in their ears they could of created a golden age for Westeros.

6:09 that southwest corner of Westeros that contains oldtown is depicted as part of Dorne or at least as not part of the Targaryen realm which is inaccurate. Oldtown was a trade center of Westeros before and during Targaryen reign. The seat of the Faith of the Seven was there before the Great Sept of Baelor's Construction which is why Aegon the First was crowned in Oldtown. It was originally even thought that Aegon would simply make his capital there.
That's so true 5:20 Reminds me of 'the history of china podcast', the han dynasty parts. Too kind to your household and they'll seek to supplant you, chipping away at your legitimacy before the final blow. Too cruel and they'll be cornered into rebelling, willing to throw the entire empire into chaos to save themselves. There's a famous quote attributed to the pure emperors of China. "The emperor is kind, but weak."
@@Welkubacca Pretty much is one of the main concepts of Legalism (han fei's theory of punishment and reward), which was how the Chinese state operated but with the PR facade of Confucianism, which sometimes softened the severity of Legalism.

@@explosivereactionstv7414 Ideally, yes. Something I think worth mentioning is the Han dynasty emperors tended to die short and 'abruptly' for no good reason, regardless of whether they were mainly seen as good or bad after they passed away. You can imagine that tends to foster quite a bit of paranoia for Han emperors in general. Another example is sparing a prince that nearly became emperor. If you kill him, that would spark a rebellion and princes retreating to their base of power. If you leave him be, he will plot to overthrow you not once or twice. Both from memory has happened. What the Tokugawa Shogunate did was make it mandatory for his daimyo to have his family live in the defacto capital of Edo, whilst the respective lords spent most of their time governing their domains.
I for one find it curious that Leo Tyrell sided with Daeron, considering that the Tyrells and the Martells have bad blood and that the king seemed to be highly influenced by the Dornish.

People even theorise that Bloodraven had a hand in his death, even though that's a bit of a stretch, only caused by Bloodraven propensity of killing shit with bows.
@@coitze8704 He's referring to the theory that the Three Eyed Crow is not Bloodraven. Bloodraven is confirmed to be Brynden Rivers, but it's left slightly ambiguous if he's actually the entity visiting Bran's dreams.
Prince Maron never knelt to Daeron II, something which the lords of Westeros did not like. Dorne alone of the kingdoms joined without submitting. They merely allowed themselves to take part in the affairs of other kingdoms now.
Maron did kneel before the Iron Throne, though. The Dornish submitted, but because they had resisted the 2 Targaryen invasions, they were allowed far more concessions than the other Great Houses of conquered kingdoms.
6:05 1 small correction about the map. It shows Oldtown and the surrounding lands as being part of Dorne but they are part of the Reach and under Targaryan rule since the end of Aegons conquest
I haven’t been this happy since Barristan Selmy survived and returned to Westeros! Oh wait... Seriously, though, you guys make the best historical videos on UA-cam. Can’t wait to see what’s next.
Small correction: Daeron was already married to Mariah Martell before he got the Throne. If I'm not wrong it was part of the peace settlement Aegon IV made after his failed invasion of Dorne

It would be awesome if you can do the history of the warring states of china when they were unified by the Qin Dynasty.. That would be so cool.. Awesome vid guys!!!
Of all the periods in the game of thrones, this is by far the most interesting and conclusive to me. If I had to pick which part of the universe to expand into, the blackfyre rebellions would be it. This and the ancient lore of the first Starks and the North.
Another Game of Thrones video!? You are too good to me sir😁. And of course you know I got to ask, any battles of middle earth would be most appreciated😁👍
nooo dude, those battles are always the same: Good Humans vs. Evil Orcs, humans have less numbers, but they still win because they are brave and heroic. Bo. Ring. Westeros' battles are much more complex and realistic (in their own way).
@@helicongremory8480 this is why we really should make this interpretation by fans and filmmakers as well. It would bring more viewers and worldwide box office success.
I've heard it argued that Fireball was the best general among the Blackfyre rebels. I wonder if the outcome would have been different if he had been at the Redgrass Field. But he was killed on the eve of battle.
Absolutely love the artstyle. Would love to learn how to do that for my own videos. Maybe one day. Incredible videos guys - I'm glad you're going through the lore of GOT.
Thanks mate. I draw them on Adobe Photoshop. Both the drawings and maps&icons. Basicaly everything except some video effects like flying birds, god rays etc. I use royalty free green screen footage for them. God speed and good luck 👋
I wonder if aegon turns out to be a blackfyre, he'll be like Daemon blackfyre. The perfect choice, the better figure, the one with blackfyre, the look of aegon the conqueror reborn, the one who people will rise up for over daenarys. Think about it, so far he's: -Sucessfully got the golden company on his side. -Invaded the stormlands and taken a big area already, and in sample chapter has taken storms end. -He's been trained and taught, by actual westerosi people so knows a lot about their rules and customs and is willing to be flexible about it. -He has the dornish interested in allying with him and his "uncle" has sent his daughter to see him. All without any dragon, or emotionless elite slave army, just sell swords. And he's young, no older then 18 though there seems to be some discrepancy. To the people, he'll be the ideal choice, better then the hated lannister regime and better then the savage loving daenarys who burns cities down. It may be he already takes the throne and talks of allying with the starks, only for daenarys to wage a second dance of dragons against him, and make him die beloved and daenarys as the villain, since he would be this heroic noble king who saved the realm from the lannisters and restored peace, while Daenarys is the evil Maegor like usurper who unleashed devastation and bloodshed after Aegon's hard work and killed her nephew.

Don't know what your plans are exactly, but I'd love to see if you could make a video of the complex war of the 5 kings and it's iconic battles like the whispering wood, oxcross, stone mill and kings landing. Furthermore love your historical videos as much or maybe even more, keep up the lovely work!
hmm...
Next GOT series should be Targaryen Civil war, Dance of the dragons.
Thanks Kings and Generals!!! Another great video...
Thanks for watching!
Another great video!
Hey guys, Daniel has a great fantasy channel, check it out!
Wow Daniel
Absolutely love this series, so unexpected yet so satisfying! Proper puts me in’t mood for some GOT prequels in the coming years🤞
Thank you very much!
You really know how to keep your GoT fans happy.
Well, I hope everyone is happy, in general. :-)
@@KingsandGenerals Well, when I see a KnG video, I'm happy because no video, thus far, has been a disappointment and 100% will not be. I have faith that you'll continue to produce great content.
Excellent narration and beautiful visualization.
Thank you very much!
It would be awesome if you can do the history of the warring states of china when they were unified by the Qin Dynasty.. That would be so cool..
Awesome vid guys!!!
Rumor has it that Isilidur ,King of the Reach is still alive
What?
The heir of isildur lives in essos as a sellsword
Of all the periods in the game of thrones, this is by far the most interesting and conclusive to me. If I had to pick which part of the universe to expand into, the blackfyre rebellions would be it. This and the ancient lore of the first Starks and the North.
This is awesome, lotr battles would be cool aswell
Man these GOT vids are awesome keep them coming.
Thanks! Working on more!
They say Prince Daemon was invincible in swordfight, and fights as the warrior himself, the best swordsman in westeros history
Yes!!!!! I kept asking Bazz Battles to do this but I'm happy u guys did tbis and whent into the Relm of ice and fire lol thank!👍
Glad that you are enjoying it!
Production values are LIT!!!
This series of HOD is going to be amazing.
Perfect video. Art work, audio, script and overall "feel" is so good I wish they make a movie out of this.
Another Game of Thrones video!? You are too good to me sir😁. And of course you know I got to ask, any battles of middle earth would be most appreciated😁👍
nooo dude, those battles are always the same: Good Humans vs. Evil Orcs, humans have less numbers, but they still win because they are brave and heroic. Bo. Ring. Westeros' battles are much more complex and realistic (in their own way).
The thumbnail on this is immaculate.
Thank you very much!
Please make a series on the dance of the dragons
Asoiaf is simply amazing
Thank you for making this video!
BEST CHANNEL EVER!
Hope you do Stannis battles of Blackwater and the Wall as well as the eventual battle of Ice when Winds of Winter comes out...
Please do Dance of Dragons it's awesome all out dragons fighting each other.
Dance of dragons is pure crazy fun. Starts out with 30 characters, end with ... 2... maybe 3 ?
@@helicongremory8480 this is why we really should make this interpretation by fans and filmmakers as well. It would bring more viewers and worldwide box office success.
cool
you guys should do battles from the Sulmerilian
Considering!
I've heard it argued that Fireball was the best general among the Blackfyre rebels. I wonder if the outcome would have been different if he had been at the Redgrass Field. But he was killed on the eve of battle.
Idk why, but I find GoT/ASOIAF history more interesting than ours lol. Thank you for bringing to life these events we'll probably never see on screen.
The GoT are the best omg. This is amazing thank you
This was very well done. Felt very historical. Leaving out the mystical powers of rivers was smart
didn't know you cover GOT too!!!! i'm soooo excited!!!
Do another episode like this! Doesn’t have to be for thrones!
Thinking about it!
Absolutely love the artstyle. Would love to learn how to do that for my own videos. Maybe one day. Incredible videos guys - I'm glad you're going through the lore of GOT.
Thanks mate. I draw them on Adobe Photoshop. Both the drawings and maps&icons. Basicaly everything except some video effects like flying birds, god rays etc. I use royalty free green screen footage for them.
God speed and good luck 👋
Excitement is all i feel whenever you upload a new video
Damn the art and video is so nice
thanks alot
I wonder if aegon turns out to be a blackfyre, he'll be like Daemon blackfyre. The perfect choice, the better figure, the one with blackfyre, the look of aegon the conqueror reborn, the one who people will rise up for over daenarys.
Think about it, so far he's:
-Sucessfully got the golden company on his side.
-Invaded the stormlands and taken a big area already, and in sample chapter has taken storms end.
-He's been trained and taught, by actual westerosi people so knows a lot about their rules and customs and is willing to be flexible about it.
-He has the dornish interested in allying with him and his "uncle" has sent his daughter to see him.
All without any dragon, or emotionless elite slave army, just sell swords. And he's young, no older then 18 though there seems to be some discrepancy.
To the people, he'll be the ideal choice, better then the hated lannister regime and better then the savage loving daenarys who burns cities down.
It may be he already takes the throne and talks of allying with the starks, only for daenarys to wage a second dance of dragons against him, and make him die beloved and daenarys as the villain, since he would be this heroic noble king who saved the realm from the lannisters and restored peace, while Daenarys is the evil Maegor like usurper who unleashed devastation and bloodshed after Aegon's hard work and killed her nephew.
Game of Thrones's all battle are interesting. I like this. Thanks for sharing))
Love the art in this video
Thanks!
misspelled "Bitter steel" with "Bittersweet" @ 07:43
Oh, good. I was wondering if that was just me.
As you can see here, the northeners are just love to chill out and watch the southerners warmed up by wars and intrigues.
Ok this channels just keep delivering better and better quality. Great work keep it up!
We will, thank you!
Kings and Generals x A Song of Ice and Fire! ✊🤴🔥
I really love your videos about the GOT universe! Thank you so much! Amazing quality as usua!
Thank you very much for watching!
I’ve been waiting months for another battle history channel to post another game of thrones type video
Hope you are enjoying it!
This is so detailed it could well be real history.
Well, Martin tends to reference some of the battles from real life battles.
