GAME OF THRONES HISTORICAL TIMELINE

Ever wanted to know the events that lead up to episode one of the record-smashing TV show Game of Thrones?

The book series that gave it life, George RR Martin’s ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’, has a rich and detailed world history (which we have by no means scratched the surface of here).

All of these events, in one way or another, caused the two major conflicts - the War of the Seven Kingdoms (between the houses of Westeros for the iron throne) and the second Long Night (invasion of the Wight Walkers).
