    Highly doubt there's any relation to the actual Crighton family. A common mistake made among amateur familial historians is to think having the same surname means being a part of the same family. In truth, your family was likely under the servitude of the Crichton lordship, as in Scottish tradition your family name was that of your masters.

    Spoiler alert. Most of the horrific events that happened in ASOIAF is inspired from real events. Humans are very capable of inflicting unthinkable level of cruelty on one another and had been doing so far longer than we are able to write records about it or create tales inspired by it. The only reason humans survive as a species is because the combination of our resilience and the acts of brave, good people to ensure that humans don't effed themselves to death. The scariest thing about this is that these events will continue to happen, and we have to continue to be resilient and brave to act against it. If somehow we stopped doing it, there is no future to humanity.

    If you want another real life Red Wedding story you should make a video about the Bloodbath of Stockholm. King Christian II invites the Swedish nobility to a great feast. They party for about three days, then Christian has the guests arrested, and summarily beheaded. Around 90 people in total were executed, and it set the stage for the secession of Sweden from the Kalmar Union when Gustav Vasa, whose parents had been executed, led a revolt and took the throne as Gustav I.

    Another of these were the Swedish 14th century "Håtuna Games" between the three brothers Birger, Erik, and Valdemar Birger was crowned king and due to political games forced out his brothers from court and forbad them to rejoin unless he invited them, also forbidding them from doing their own foreign affairs except through the king. This culimated in a civil war that went nowhere and sputtered out in 1306. Still, Erik and Valdemar plotted revenge for their treatment and on 26th of september when Birger held his wedding feast in Håtuna, the two brothers armed themselves and their men in secret, taking their brother captive and planning to kill his infant son that a loyal knight (Actually a swedish equivalent of a courtier, but that is not important) had whisked away with to denmark. Agreeing to share the power with his brothers, Birger was kept prisoner even after the promise. Erik now controlled Sweden by having the largest realm, but that only lasted until the Danish king who had taken in Birger's son attacked and plundered around in Erik's realm. This lead to the retaliation of Erik and Valdemar against Scania, plundering it in turn with mercenaries from germany. Calling for aid, the danish king called the norwegian king who arrived and helped defeat the two brothers, who as a condition of the peace, let Birger go and become king again. This lead to an uneasy peace between the three brothers that lasted for ten years, until 1317, Birger once again called for a feast and invited his two brothers in what is now called "Nyköping's Feast" where he showed that he had forgiven civil war that had caused such strife between them. As the night went on, he finally declared "I have forgiven the war, but I never forgot the Håtuna Games!" and the guards stormed the hall to arrest the two brothers. He kept them locked up in the dungeon, gloating over his final victory. There they died on his orders, but in retaliation, the loyal knights of Erik and Valdemar stormed the keep and forced Birger to flee Sweden, but his son was taken captive. In exile, he died 1321, just after the news came that his son had been executed. And so, Magnus VII, son of Erik, took the throne. And so ended the Håtuna Games. Hope you ended this overly long post about a fascinating event that is often overlooked!

    Actually there was a red wedding before this in Greece in the Successor State of the Byzantine Empire called Epirus (from the thumbnail click). Theodore Doukas and ambitious leader poised to restore the Eastern Roman Empire after the 4th Crusade took the throne of Epirus and he lured Peter of Courenay (if i recall he was the Latin Emperor) with offers of Food and Wine as well as support for the 5th crusade. Once the Latins let their guard down they were captured or massacred. He was excommunicated afterwards by the Pope as the Despotate leaders faked their conversion to Roman Catholicism as only a political solution. He faked his apologies to the Pope and started going campaign to restore the Empire by capturing what remains of the now almost dead body of the Crusader State of Thessaloniki which made the Pope angry yet again and excommunicated him again. Fun part he did not cared also he switched back to Orthodox Christanity back again once he thought this charade went far enough.

    Are you really related or are you an American with the same name claiming royal heritage? Because in reality the Stewart family died out with Queen Anne in 1714.

    Ooft. Edinburgh isnt a hard one dude. Its Edin-burr-uh not Edin-burrow for future heads up. Also deid is not death. Deid = dead. Past tense. So its more, once they have been put to death they are then deid. While you have said "They have been put to dead". If you need someoe to run this stuff by im happy to help. Am native.
