1. Daenerys Targaryen Shares Similarities To Henry Tudor
Uh, so how is Daenerys Targaryen anything like Henry Tudor? Well, in quite a few ways actually. For starters, they both believed that the throne was theirs by birthright. Henry’s mother was a descendant of Edward III, which was his claim, and we all know that Dany’s father was The Mad King, which is her claim.
They both grew up in exile across a body of water (Henry in France) and, when the time came, they built an army and crossed said body of water to take back the throne they believed to be theirs.
Henry crossed the sea and married Elizabeth (earlier pointed out as Sansa) in order to gain the throne and knock out any other Yorks who thought they had claim. While Dany marrying Sansa is, like, the least likely thing to happen on the show ever, it should be noted that she has before married in order to help advance her cause.
The War of the Roses ended with Henry on the throne so it should be interesting to see if this is in any way a clue to how Game of Thrones will end. Of course, the War of the Roses didn’t have dragons or White Walkers or Three-eyed Ravens so there’s certainly a few more factors to deal with.
Plus, Martin seems to have pulled from history but certainly added his own twist so relying on history to predict the end of Game of Thrones isn’t the safest bet.
