It's been just over a month since I set up shop here, and I've already amassed over 10 followers. Soon our numbers will be strong enough to begin with our invasion of Thrace.

"asoiaf is based off the middle ages, they should be wearing this! [posts 16th century fashion]"
?
#silence bottom#asoiaf#before anyone gets on my ass#bc i know tumblr bitches are pedantic af#yes yes the end of the middle ages is not agreed upon#however the medieval era also doesnt actually exist#its a category later historians came up with to cover a span of ~1k years#given how Rome-focused the Western world is#given how the middle ages BEGINS with the fall of Western Rome#it makes the most sense it would end with the fall of Eastern Rome#that being 1453 with the fall of Constantinople#sure one can make a great argument that it would be as late as 1527 with Charles V sacking Rome as it represented a departure from &#consequently loss of power of the Catholic Church which was the beating heart of the medieval era#but so much changed by the time 1500 rolled around that i cant really see how the sixteenth century constitutes being included in the#medieval era yknow?
