Seven Kingdoms
Historically, before Aegon I Targaryen united Westeros, there were seven independent kingdoms:
| No | Kingdom | Ruling House (at Conquest) | Capital / Seat |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kingdom of the North | Stark | Winterfell |
| 2 | Kingdom of the Mountain and the Vale | Arryn | The Eyrie |
| 3 | Kingdom of the Isles and the Rivers | Hoare | Harrenhal |
| 4 | Kingdom of the Rock | Lannister | Casterly Rock |
| 5 | Kingdom of the Reach | Gardener | Highgarden |
| 6 | Storm Kingdom | Durrandon | Storm's End |
| 7 | Principality of Dorne* | Martell | Sunspear |
- Dorne joined later through marriage rather than conquest.
Houses
After Aegon's Conquest, the realm became known as the Seven Kingdoms, but the political divisions evolved into these regions:
| No | House | Region | Capital / Seat | Sigil | Motto |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Targaryen | Crownlands | Dragonstone | Three-Headed Red Dragon | Fire and Blood |
| 2 | Stark | The North | Winterfell | Grey Direwolf | Winter is Coming |

| 4 | Lannister | Westerlands | Casterly Rock | Golden Lion | Hear Me Roar! |
| 5 | Tyrell | The Reach | Highgarden | Golden Rose | Growing Strong |
| 6 | Tully | Riverlands | Riverrun | Silver Trout | Family, Duty, Honor |
| 7 | Arryn | The Vale | The Eyrie | Falcon and Crescent Moon | As High as Honor |
| 8 | Martell | Dorne | Sunspear | Red Sun Pierced by a Spear | Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken |
