""A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms" is HBO's latest spinoff series that fleshes out the sprawling fantasy world created by George R. R. Martin. The new show, which premieres on Sunday, is set in peacetime Westeros about a century before the first events of "Game of Thrones" - long before Jaime Lannister killed the Mad King Aerys, ousting the Targaryens from power and triggering a war for the Iron Throne."
""House of the Dragon" is adapted from "Fire and Blood," a fictional history book about the Targaryen family, sourced from various scholars and firsthand accounts that often contradict one another. The show focuses on a particularly fraught and bloody period in Targaryen history known as the Dance of the Dragons. At the beginning of season one, King Viserys I sits on the Iron Throne. He canonically ruled from 103 AC to 129 AC during a peaceful and prosperous time in Westeros."
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is an HBO spinoff set in peacetime Westeros about a century before Game of Thrones, far before Jaime Lannister killed the Mad King Aerys and the Targaryen ouster. The series occurs several generations after House of the Dragon, which adapts Fire and Blood and focuses on the Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. King Viserys I reigned from 103 AC to 129 AC during a prosperous era. Viserys named his firstborn daughter Rhaenyra successor after losing his wife and son, later remarried Alicent Hightower, and his death sparked a civil war between Rhaenyra and Aegon II.
