Which Houses are Team Black vs Green (House of the Dragon)

Going into season 2 of HotD, noble houses within the 7 Kingdoms
are going to have to choose which side of the Targaryens they''re
going to fight for. Enter Starks, Arryns, Tullys, Tyrells!

What makes a man turn _neutral_ ? Lust for gold? Power? Maybe they were just born with a heart full of neutrality....

The Riverlands were the Real OP in the Dance. No region has ever created such an Impact from the Ground Forces even after their continous Assault from Vhagar.... They were tanking left and right to whoever is coming after them... I mean They literally annihilated the Baratheons, Lannisters and Criston's forces singlehandedly. Before the North arrived they were pretty much the only thing besides Dragons standing between the Greens from taking the Throne once and for all....

Minor mistake: The coat of arms of House Baratheon shows no crown on the stag until Robert becomes king.

Really hope we get the red kraken Properly unlike how Euron was

[sophiekinch-lake]

In Fire and Blood (maybe it will be different in HOTD?) the Tyrells stay neutral in the war, as the Reach is ruled by Lady Tyrell in the name of her infant son.

The black have the advantage of having more dragons but the Green has the Advantage of having more allies.
Not only in westeros but the Triachy of Essos as well. In fact (SPOILER)










It's the Triachy's fleet that kills Reanyra's firstborn child.

Has anyone ever said your voice is so soothing and compelling at the same time

Having read over the Dance again, this time with the Rise of the Dragon book that came out with that beautiful art, it really is crazy how powerful the Riverlands are in this war. Tully, Bracken, and Blackwood just dominate the war really. The North, outside of maybe the Manderlys, don't get to do much. Neither do the Greyjoys really. House Aryn has some decent stuff. Outside of House Targaryen and Hightower, Tully and Baratheon really pull a lot of the weight.

It'd be an interesting theory if the boltons were behind the reason Cregan Stark being late the dance

[JamesHatfield]

I like to think of the Dance as a conflict between Royalists and Loyalists:

Greens are Royalists💚 : Supporters of the eldest true-born son of the previous king. Aegon has every aspect of legitimacy that any king could have. Crowned in front of the people of Kings Landing by the High Septon, wearing the Conqueror's crown, bearing his sword, bearing his name etc. All of tradition and precedence is on his side. Those who support him are the Royalists who support their rightful king.

Blacks are Loyalists 🖤: Supporters of the King's chosen heir. They are those who are faithful to their vows and never forget a promise. They are those who put their own vows ahead of tradition, and honour the memory of King Viserys by upholding the rights of his eldest daughter.

That's just how I see it. Both have points of course, but I can't help but side with the Greens. 😍

It's so frustrating to think this would all been prevented if the small council didn't force Vissy T to remarry 😑

[raphaelostrowski]

The riverlords are going to be the most essential. Riverlords will fight and beat the Lannister, Royal forces, The Hightowers and reach loyalists and single handly destroy the Baratheon in the final battle

[tomsmith]

You do good work my friend. Keep up the good work.

[billyvigar]

Can't wait to see the red kraken in action

[Braunbaer]

Well the Ironisland are bitter rivals of the Westerlands. So they will join Rhaenyra only to spite the Lannisters and raid the ritch Westerlands.
And there is the Legend of the red kracken Dalton Greyjoy.

Can we accept George finna kick the bucket b4ore we get that last books

Is it just me or do they look completely clueless?
Just add that small "loading" circle above them and it'll be perfect!

[ValentineCorp]

Vance’s in Riverlands, Dustins in North, and Peakes in the reach are also seem quite big and seem like notable omissions

[mrphantomj]

More than likely the starks will go with team black because Rheanyra is the rightful queen

[jimwell]

I hope HOTD doesn't deviate much from the books like GOT especially when it comes to showcasing some of the Minor Noble Houses & it's prominent members. Westorsi politics is more interesting if there are more players playing a game of thrones or dancers dancing the dance of dragons.
