'*' denotes Houses currently unclaimed but with a history/major impact in the GOTRP's past.

The North

During the War of the Five Kings, the North was liberated from Bolton rule by Stannis Baratheon, and the Starks restored to paramountcy. The North saw little conflict after the war, save for a brief attempt by Davos Baratheon to invade and replace their religion with the Seven. Predictably, the invasion was stopped at the Neck.

Sometime prior to the first era, Walton Bolton declared his house to be independent from the North and the Iron Throne, after an insult from King Harys Baratheon. The Bolton Uprising was put down by the king and Edmure Stark, who was thought to have put all of House Bolton to the sword.

The Westerlands

The Westerlands continued under Lannister rule after the War of Five Kings through the line of Daven Lannister, Warden of the West and cousin to Tywin Lannister.

The kingdom remained the wealthiest of all seven due to its robust mining-driven economy and saw little to no conflict during the two centuries of Baratheon rule, keeping mostly to itself.

The Reach

The Reach continued to thrive under the Tyrell rule following the War of the Five Kings. During the beginning of Baratheon reign the Reach (like the other Kingdoms) were skeptical of the Baratheons rulership. House Tyrell chose to lead the Reach in support of Baratheons in the Red Stag War aided King Davos in vanquishing the Lightharts. Following the victory in the Red Stag War, the two houses grew very close, resulting in the Reach benefiting greatly from the Iron Throne's favor for decades.

In 456 AC, the Tourney of Longtable was held by Lord Owen Merryweather in honor of the birth of then, Prince Renly Baratheon. Knights from all over the realm traveled south for the would-be twelve day event. It was cut short with the unexpected death of King Orys II's brother, Colen Baratheon, at the hands of the Grey Knight.
