A Detailed Tour of the ‘Game of Thrones’ World Map

Film and TV essayist Rocket Riley gave a comprehensive tour of the entire map of lands within the Game of Thrones universe, created by George R.R. Martin in his popular book series A Song of Ice and Fire.

The world of A Song of Ice and Fire is vast and intricate, filled with rich history and complex characters that can be overwhelming to navigate.

Riley began with the ancient land of Westeros, describing the original people who lived there, the kings who conquered it, and the cultural differences among them.

Starting with the ancient history of Westeros, we’ll explore the origins of the First Men, the mystical Children of the Forest, and the legendary events that shaped the Seven Kingdoms as we know them. From the Arm of Dorne and the Wall to the rise of the Andals and the Targaryen Conquest, we’ll guide you through each region, uncovering the stories and secrets that lie within.

He then moved eastward on this informative journey toward Essos, which is known to be mysterious and enigmatic, and not very open to strangers.

As we venture east, we’ll delve into the Free Cities, the Dothraki Sea, Slaver’s Bay, and even the enigmatic Shadow Lands of Asshai. Along the way, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the cultures, histories, and conflicts that define this epic world.
