AKA some awful combination of the Dance of Dragons and the Blackfyre Rebellions. The two worst mistakes in Targaryen history.

Hmmm Didn't get that far, but just read a synopsis of it and you're right. The quest for ultimate power would have reared its ugly head.

Aegon had a hard on for his mom and the Targs usually get what they want. Theory is not that out there.

Aegon Targaryen was born, when Jamie was 15 years old.

Yeah, he's doing what Walder Frey did by having 9 wives and 150 descendants, which is no matter how Walder Frey goes down dooms his house. It will be Black Walder and Lothar Frey vs a very disorganized portion of the other Freys. They'll kill each other off regardless.

The snippets of history we got are fantastic.

Dany is cool and shite being a dragon rider but she'll never be wearing plate, jumping from a dragons back to bury a sword in your cousins eye bad arse dragon rider.

If history has taught us anything, it's that no empire, dynasty, or country will reign forever. All will fall given enough time.

While this is true some empires can still last a while time. The Valyrian Freehold stood for almost 4000 years.

Yeah that poster said something along the likes of Aegon (I think he means Aerys) having a thing for his (Jamie's) mom. There is a theory that Jamie and Cersei are actually Aerys's children.

Handing out that many dragons to that many people is a terrible fricking idea and will result in the entire world being burned down
