I’d argue that houses Lannister and Frey aren’t depicted as historically evil, like house Bolton and Peake are. They seem to be as much of a mixed bag as any other lords. The Freys are always prickly because they’re “new money” that will never be fully respected by most other well-established houses. Tywin and Walter are just such complete bastards in the modern story, and were in control of their houses for so long that they seem more awful. But let’s not forget that Starks have quite a few ruthless lords in their history too. But I’m not arguing about Peake and Bolton. They’re clearly rotten. Bracken seems to have more assholes than usual but their feud with Blackwood seems pretty evenly split with crappy behavior all around.

Pretty much every conflict in the book he makes it somewhat ambiguous on who was in the right because it is totally subjective. Even when there is a clear cut "villain" there's always a few characters on their side who are somewhat good natured and just there due to circumstance.

The Lannisters have their ups and downs for sure, but really its mostly Tywin and Cersei that stick out as the main antagonistic forces. Boltons are....ok yeah can't really defend those guys. Brackens definitely have their fair share of shitty actions themselves, but honestly they seem pretty reasonable as long as you keep them away from the Blackwoods. Plus, their whole feude is so ambiguous in origin that they may have been in the right at one point, even if we're generally lead to sympathize with the Blackwoods more often than not.

There were at least two periods in history when the Hoares are surprisingly liberal in their approach, aiming for trade, cooperation with the mainland and discouraging or even outlawing the old way, adopting the faith of the seven either wholly or in part and gaining the support of the westerlands in one instance. Obviously that didn't last, one line of "good" Hoares was overthrown by a much more antagonistic member of the family and then there's obviously the three that ruled the Riverlands (which also followed a period of much more peaceful iron island rulers). It's similar for the Greyjoys. Admittedly I could find fewer examples of good Greyjoys, but theres a few examples still of them trying to be more closely tied to the mainland and even letting the faith of the seven back (which didn't last long). Hell, Quellon Greyjoy, Theon's grandfather, tried to reform the islands to be much more peaceful and to get rid of the old way, only to be survived by three sons that couldn't care less for his plans.

2:50 this is one of the reasons i absolutely love ASOIAF lore. I was looking over the map a few weeks ago (i was on book 5 and wanted to get a better look at the geography of dorn and highgarden). I was on the chapter where Stannis was mocking the fact lord Manderly was too fat to ride a horse, and just read the chapter Davos had jested that despite Manderly being fat he was still busy building Galleys. Lots of mention of Manderly...and then i see the river Mander in the reach. It clicked in my head and i was like "wait...this cant be a coincidence" and guess what? IT ISNT. ITS PART OF THE LORE. GRRM YOUVE DONE IT AGAIN. Every single detail is accounted for.

Whenever I would play CK2 I loved to play as the Gardeners right before Aegon’s conquest.

LmL had a great point on his last stream about “why the heck is this house even still there GRRM?”

He killed Roger of Pennytree. Never forget.

One of the best parts of Unwin’s tenure as Hand is that when trying to marry his daughter, Myrielle, to Aegon III, Aegon questioned wether or not he would like her. Unwin says something like “You don’t like turnips, but you still eat them when the cook prepares them.” So poor Myrielle Peake gets stuck with the nickname “Lady Turnips”

I wouldn't consider House Frey to be a hat house in the books, the Freys have a variety of personalities and goals. Some Freys are dicks like "Black" Walder Frey but there are also pretty nice Freys like Ser Stevron or Ser Cleos, It's just in universe most people tend to assume the worst of them and treat them pretty poorly.

Based! Hail Aegon II Hail house blackfyre

“OOOOH GORMIE” in DavidreadsASOIAF’s voice is the first thing that comes to mind when I hear of House Peake.

It was peak information, thanks

This video made me laugh out loud 😂 When you talked about how they killed the king and other two high lords with a giant rock I was wheezing 😂😂

I seriously hate Unwin Peake more than any other ASOIAF character. He is the absolute worst!

Well I know what house I'm gonna be apart of for my supervillain arc of CK3 AGOT

I always suspected they had Orphan-Maker confiscated at some point, possibly after Gormon Peake's execution

Walder made sure that House Frey is the most irredeemable house in Westeros

Unwin Peake was most likely named after Tolkein's first publisher (Unwin) and the author of the Gormenghast trilogy (Mervyn Peake)

I'm just happy to be here.

It's funny because Martin's all like, "I don't really have people be all good or all bad ... shades of grey..Grey... blah blah," and then he proceeded to do the opposite with certain houses

Ngl they have a really cool digit and colors

House Peake? Castles on coat of arms? Lord Titus? Okay, this is clearly an hommage for Mervyn Peake and the Gormenghast series

“Boiled leather”

I am Peakeing so hard at the idea of Unwin in HotD 🔥🔥🔥🔥

how these pricks got away with rebelling against the crown three times (in about one lifetime) twice under Bloodraven, and are not extinct or exile is a mystery

You forgot to mention how before the Maiden's day ball (where it was to be decided who the next queen would be), some of Westeros most beautifull highborn young ladies suddenly started having acidents that either killed or crippled them, or suffered atacks that made then less beautifull( one of them was robbed and got her nose cut off in the woods) or had nasty rumous about them suddenly circulating everywhere. While his daughter was sent to King's Landing weeks to spend as much time as possible with the king make him like her more. And after a Velaryon girl was chosen he still tried to override the decision to make his own daughter queen but failed.

Unrelated, but I'd like to see covered topic of Targaryen marriages. What if they need to unite Westeros not only politically but also by blood? Obviously in Mad King and his descendants's blood there's blood of Baratheon, Arryn and Martell. Aegon V married with family from Riverlands if that counts. Jacerys failed to connect Fire with Ice (Stark), but it's likely Rhaegar succeeded. Tyrrell (or Hightower) and Lannister houses connected with the royal family, but their genes weren't passed on.

I watched a Lore video about the regency of Aegon III and I’ve never disliked a fictional character more than Unwin Peake and I’m thankful for the validation this video gives me

Gormon Peake makes me thing that this is all a weird Gormenghast reference. It was a pretty famous fantasy series written by a guy called Mervyn Peake.

You may not like it, but this is what Peake performance looks like

The Reach looks an awful lot like Wales(!)
