Every Major House In The Entire Game Of Thrones Explained

The Complete History of Every Major House in Westeros. From the frozen weirwood groves of Winterfell to the golden gardens of Highgarden and the volcanic ruins of Dragonstone, the Seven Kingdoms are defined by the noble bloodlines that rule them. For thousands of years, these houses have traded gold, steel, and secrets—building empires on ancient myths, structural betrayals, and the transactional realities of feudal power. In this ultimate lore documentary, we chronicle the origin, rise, defining conflicts, and ultimate fates of every major house in George R.R. Martin’s universe, mapping out how their paths cross through both Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon. We expose the dirty steward origins of House Tyrell, uncover the deep maritime empire of House Velaryon, and detail how a single prophetic dream saved House Targaryen from the Doom of Valyria. We'll chart the bloody calculated maneuvers of House Lannister, the ancient martial pride of House Stark, the shadowy reach of House Hightower, and the brutal downfalls of Houses Frey, Bolton, Tully, Arryn, Greyjoy, Martell, Baratheon, and Tarly.
