Vlad also gave a shit about his subjects and was famous for reducing things like street crime in his towns and cities and graft and banditry out in the country side. He'd be absolutely livid about how badly his peers have neglected their gentry as well IIRC since he was kinda big on cultivating...

That's good shit man.

It would be better if it were Ieyasu Tokugowa or Toyotomi Hideyoahi. Oda has no way to overcome Ramsay's stigma, unless he screws over his dad and actually stays loyal to the Starks. He can make a play from that vantage point but following Canon he'd just be screwed.

"Negative, you protect ze princess and her spawn, I will terminate the alchemists and this King."

A Dragoness and a Lion Gender bent Aerys marries Tywin story. Seems shitposty.

I'm thinking about writing up a situation where Matarys survives and becomes King and its his line that rules. Egg gets Harrenhal and actually makes it thrive and deals with family drama maybe by realizing his sons married Blackfyre women to end the blood feud or something. Flash forward to...

No, sadly. As to hamlet, it would probably be made in Braavos. Because doing a story like that in the Seven Kingdoms Gerd you beheaded

Actually may start writing something Ashara in Istanbul presumably during the Ottoman Caliphate?

Lol! More seriously though, a Targaryen cadet branch in the Arbor assuming they have dragons puts the boot on a lot of throats. Another off Fair Isle keeps the Ironborn contained too.

That was a fun read.

Been dead for waayy too long so here's me bumping it with a few fics. The Empire of the Black Dragons And it's sequel The Years of Blood. Pretty expansive AU project, with multiple POD's, one of which features an earlier Dragonlord clan settling Westeros along the West Coast of the North...

And like I said, there's no reason Valyrians and other Essosi wouldn't steadily migrate to Westeros. The North has so much land and volcanoes, it's a natural place and as @Emperor Tippy notes, the First Men are more aligned with the way they think than the South and there'd be a lot of use for...

You mean the Ghiscari? The problem is distance and the fact that only the Ironborn practice slavery holding them back. Then again a prohibition against slavery didn't stop Valyrian nobles from coming to Westeros. Oh yeah no Valyrian or Ghriscari engineers and healers and scholars showing up...

Not for the Riverlands themselves so much as bridging various rivers for ease of travel for commerce purposes. Though you're right in that most of those would be controlled by other Kingdoms. The Hoares I should have said though I'm guessing the Tullys would have inherited that theoretical...

I'm tempted to do something with this but only if you guys think my Stargate work is quality enough to do something with ASOIAF.

It would have made a lot more complex and entertaining that's for sure. But also the Tully's with money and a brown water navy would have been a lot harder for Tywin to abuse the way he did.

Exactly, the cost, the losses and once you succeed? You have the natural consequences of canals. IE river piracy and organized crime and Houses like the Frey's and Tully's acting as laundromats. Which IIRC was a plague in China. "I remember it well, Lord Hoster dispatched his river fleet...

Which would be worth the endeavor and if you had say Valyrian magitech bullshit or Aegon deciding to command Balerion to dig like a dog one could in theory mitigate the costs. There were a lot of Normans who migrated to England before William the Bastard conquered it. Seeing it as a chance to...

One thing I never understood about the canal meme is that wouldn't it make the Tully's the wealthiest house in the realm? Since freaking everything would have to pass through the riverlands? And the ramifications of that are extensive. It would make Aegon a complete fucktard for not integrating...

The Weirwood Queen. tldr: I rather like it even though I'm not a fan of the wicca undertones, it's at least good to read if you've got yourself a few hours of time to kill.
