I am not gonna be here when the bank come for his money.

Tyrion discovers that Little Finger has been running the books and the number don't match up in Clash, on top of the mess he's made by doing deals, trading money back and forth between Houses and making everyone indebted to each other, but particularly indebted the crown to the iron bank and Tywin Lannister. We know Little Finger isn't inept at all and it's being done intentionally. Therefore regardless of if Robert held a tourney every single year since he took over, it's only been 10 years, and it's clear Little Finger is filtering money away from the crowns finances and spending it in loans, and other ways to plunge the the Seven kingdoms into debt and additional chaos, therefore it's not Robert's spending that's the problem, it's that his small council members are being left to their own devices and schemes, with little to no oversight.

Very informative thank u!!!

I reckon it was more *Robert's* doing that the realm became indebted, rather than Littlefinger's. The latter was the Master of Coin, yes, though in that role, there's not much you can do to *prevent* debt when you're working (less "working", more "slaving", really; you don't say "no" to a king such as this one) for a king who's throwing tourneys here, lavish feasts there, etc etc. And it's interesting that only *Varys* was called "The Spider", because he had a "web of spies". Every Master of Whisperers has a bloody web of spies. ...I also wonder why the Valaryons and Celtigars headed to Westeros (conveniently) before the Doom occurred...🤔

One of biggest flaws of the small council was because it was a small council. The concentration of power very quickly dangerous. Maybe to have some sort of cohesion, maybe a representative of the great families could've been also present as ambassadors to send orders back to the regions for the lords to enforce specific things

It's interesting to notice that, although it's not really talked much about on the show, on the books Stannis is considered a master naval commander, in fact, some even believe that if he was in charge of the ships during the battle of Blackwater Bay he could've saved most of his ships, however, to appease his servants of his wife familly, he gave command of the ships to a cousin/brother of his wife, however the man wasn't very experienced and sent Stannis fleet to Tyrion Ambush. Stannis on the books was almost single handly responsible for the defeat of the Greyjoys during the Greyjoy rebelion too, it's in fact his greatest feat, the man was able to crush the Iron fleet under the command of Victarion Greyjoy, considered by many one of the greatest naval commanders who ever lived (Although Stannis had help from the Redwyne fleet, one of the three naval super powers of westeros). Stannis could be a great master of laws too, he would break the corruption of the Gold Cloaks (Although on the books it's said that he and Jon Arryn tried to do that), but it wouldn't make him near as effective as acting as master of ships, as like i said, the man was a beast commanding on the sea. I dare to say that Stannis is close to Allyn Velaryon and Corlys Velaryon as admiral.

There is no master of war, at least as far as i know. The closest there is to that title is the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, since they are generally tasked with the command of the king's military forces in times of war. However, the Hand of the King come close to that too, since in times of war the Hand serves almost like a marshal. Oh, and also, there is the honorary title of "Protector of the realm", wich is the title that gives a man complete control of the Armies under the King, this title is generally held by the king himself, unless he is not fit to command his own armies. Like for instance, King Aegon during the Dance of Dragon after being wounded in battle, gave the title of Protector of the realm to his younger brother, Aemond, to command his army alongside lord commander Criston Cole. And also Queen Rhaenyra, who made her husband, King Consort Daemon Targaryen as lord protector and he led her armies alongside her hand of the King, Lord Corlys Velaryon. Also the Master of Ships is an additional militar advisor for the king, since they are in command of all the Royal fleet, in fact, Stannis Baratheon place as Master of Ships was something that greatly helped him during the war of Five kings, since before Leaving Kingslanding after Jon Arryn death, Stannis took almost the whole Royal fleet with him, since he had total control of them.

Hand of the King is more like a hybrid of Chief of Staff and VP.

Obara is the eldest daughter, nim is oberyn Martells second..the more u know😁

The hand of the king is nothing like vice president but it's a lot like prime minister

I don't know that Vice-President is the right analogue for Hand of the King, more like Chief-of-Staff.

The commander of the City Watch answer directly to the Master of Laws, so there is no place for him there since his boss is already there. However, the Commander of the City watch can gain a place as advisor if need be, although his position isn't worth much if there is already a master of Laws (Although i believe that a Commander of the City War can also become Master of Laws, but i don't remmember any example of it happening on the books).

How is the hand of the king similar to the Vice President? They wouldn’t take over in the event of the Kings death unless specifically ordered

Oberyn's eldest daughter is Obara

07 seconds in //record scratch// ... Dude the hand is obviously equivalent to the Prime Minister of the King. In matters of succession and let's face it influence, a vice president is more like a little princeling. Unless this video was meant to reflect the Cheney administration ;)

What about master of war

The hand of the king is more like a Prime Minster tbh
