House Baratheon vs House Targaryen (A Song of Ice and Fire)

The Baratheons are a branch family of the Targayen King
All their ups and downs in the ASoIaF / Game of Thrones /
House of the dragon Lore

I love the irony that the Targaryen history begins with Baratheons as their friends and Martells as their enemies, and ends with the Baratheins as their enemies and Martells as their friends 😂

“Ours is the Fury”
I like how every Baratheon has either a fury, impulsive, and outspoken trait.

[danielsantiagourtado]

Everything started so well with Orys and Aegon, aside from beign half brothers, were truly best friends

[michaelmoon]

I wish they also could've explored a bit of Tywin and Steffon's relationship. The three of them Tywin Steffon and the Mad King spent their youths together after all. And it's not really explored what happened between Steffon and Tywin after the latter resigned as hand

[TheDreadiSBlack]

Always wondered how the Baratheon & Targaryen family’s started out so close then suddenly became mortal enemies. Very insightful

[Divine_Chareka]

Rhaenyra should've sent Rhaenys to win the support of Storms End.

[obsidian]

I've always liked House Baratheon...they're big, they're loud and they're a bunch of Badasses! "Ours Is The Fury!"

[Corvus]

I didn't ask for this, no more than I asked to be king. We do not choose our destiny. But we must do our duty, great or small we must do our duty.

Greatest baratheon ever🦌

Maybe much like the Lannisters from earlier in the series, Borros just wanted dragons in the family? He did offer Lucaerys an alliance in exchange for a marriage

I hated the fact the writers in HOTD aren’t showing female nature like how the books did. Like Alicent being a bitch but still honorable woman and Rhaenyra being a lying and scheming woman. Or how the Baratheon sister instigated Aemond to attack jace, women are master manipulators they shouldn’t shy away from that fact to make the to lead women look good give us the real shit like how they did with Cersei

[thalmoragent]

That moment when you realize House Baratheon is just House Targaryen under a different name. They're basically just dark haired Targaryens, due to Orys being a bastard of Aerion Targaryen.

[revanius]

House of the Dragon has many positive, but being accurate in their characters appearances is not one of them. Very few seem to actually be accurate.

[ilbb]

Sweet irony Daemon wanted to genocide House Baratheon and Lannisters on the Dance to in the end, those Houses will be the one which annihilate Targaryen line.

[davidringmann]

Are the Baratheon genes the crazy one's or those of the Durrandons? We are not to forget that when Orys killed Argilac the latter's daughter Argella was just as ferosious as her father, as much as she had to be betrayed by her own garrison in oder to give up Storm's End to Orys and marry him afterwards.

Be Targaryen
Bethrothed to baratheon, agreed upon and with kings permission.
Don't do it, go for weird witch instead.
Baratheon angry, rebel and try to kill targ.
Much later
Targaryen bethrothed to baratheon, breaks it again for some random girl.
Baratheon angry and rebel again, try to kill targ.
Be son of mad targ king who everyone is this close to rebelling against, see baratheon has betrothal to a woman and be a targ who is already marrried with kids.
Take her anyway.
Hide in abandoned tower in wife's own kingdom, do nothing and tell no one.
Father kills parent and brother of girl, and wants the head of her bethrothed and her eldest living brother. They of course refuse and rebel.
Now a whole war has happened because of you.
Truly, no wonder the baratheons dislike the targaryens, you can't just dangle stuff and constantly break your word.

[coopboulton]

Barathian’s aren’t crazy at all, they are just quick to anger. There is a difference.

[Spongebrain]

Roger Baratheon and Jaehaerys have such a cool and neat relationship in F&B

[DarkKing]

Give a gift, get a gift, give nothing you will see nothing. Simple as Lord Borros Baratheon

[omarpineda]

The silhouette of Robert in full armor and hammer in hand just looks sick as fuck man.

There’s only one true king AND HIS NAME IS STANNIS!
