#triarchy

[stromuprisahat]

Across Westeros, the winds of war were blowing up the narrow sea as well. The murder of Sharako Lohar of Lys, the admiral who had presided over the Triarchy’s disaster in the Gullet, proved to be the spark that engulfed the Three Daughters in flames, fanning the smoldering rivalries of Tyrosh, Lys, and Myr into open war. It is now commonly accepted that Sharako’s death was a personal matter; the arrogant admiral was slain by one of his rivals for the favor of a courtesan known as the Black Swan. At the time, however, his death was seen as a political killing, and the Myrish were suspected. When Lys and Myr went to war, Tyrosh seized the opportunity to assert its dominion over the Stepstones.

I am creating a Micronation (Tzomar, or the Triarchy). Why? Pure boredom

So, why not explain the layout. It's called a Triarchy, because it is formed of Three Councils. The Executive Branch is the King's Council. The Legislative is the Council of Fifty. And the Judicial is a council based on the Sanhedrin

(And, with it being Mormon Inspired, religious discrimination has no place in the Triarchy. It doesn't matter if your Muslim, Atheist, or worship a White Dog, you will have the same rights as everyone, including the right to be elected to, chosen for, or inherit any position)

The King/Queen (this being a Mormon-based Micronation) is supposed to be a Descendant of Joseph Smith. Until then, my family will take that role

The Council of Fifty will be lead by a council of five Ephors. Although the council is elected by the population, the Ephors will be elected by the Council Members. The Ephors (like the Spartan Officers they're based on) will have Veto Power over the king/queen, and can displace him/her

The Sanhedrin (for lack of a better word atm) will have 71 members (representing the 70 Nations in Genesis, and the Church of God in Nephi's Vision). They'll have the power to interpret the Law. Like the Biblical Sanhedrin, each City would have a smaller council of 23)

I have more to write, and I'm not even done forming it (the above is just a rough draft). I have economics & the start of a Constitution. But for now, I'll work on it

... Spicetown was brutally sacked, the bodies of men, women, and children butchered in the streets and left as fodder for gulls and rats and carrion crows, its buildings burned. The town would never be rebuilt. High Tide was put to the torch as well. All the treasures the Sea Snake had brought back from the east were consumed by fire, his servants cut down as they tried to flee the flames. The Velaryon fleet lost almost a third of its strength. Thousands died. Yet none of these losses were felt so deeply as that of Jacaerys Velaryon, Prince of Dragonstone and heir to the Iron Throne. Rhaenyra’s youngest son seemed lost as well. In the confusion of battle, none of the survivors seemed quite certain which ship Prince Viserys had been on. Men on both sides presumed him dead, drowned or burned or butchered. And though his brother Aegon the Younger had fled and lived, all the joy had gone out of the boy; he would never forgive himself for leaping onto Stormcloud and abandoning his little brother to the enemy. It is written that when the Sea Snake was congratulated on his victory, the old man said, “If this be victory, I pray I never win another”.

Events that went down in History during the Reing of Viserys I Targaryen 9/8

War for the Stepstones

In 111 AC. LORD CORLYS VELARYON and PRINCE DAEMON TARGARYEN, self-proclaimed PRINCE OF DRAGONSTONE, called his bannermen, against the wishes of the CROWN, initiating a war against the TRIARCHY for control of the sea passage of the STEPSTONES, after months of assaults on westerosi ships.

To the call of the "PRINCE OF DRAGONSTONE" responded the HOUSES STAUNTON of ROOK REST, CELTIGAR of CLAW ISLE, BAR EMMON of SHARP POINT and HOUSE SUNGLASS of SWEETPORT SOUND, all houses of the BLACKWATER BAY. And also counting with PRINCE DAEMON TARGARYEN rider of the dragon CARAXES and SER LAENOR VELARYON rider of SEASMOKE.

After 3 years of intense battles, the VELARYON were on the verge of defeat, with their days numbered, they could only rely on a risky plan, to get the pirates out of the caves, kill their leaders and disperse the remaining forces of the TRIARCHY.

It was then that KING VISERYS I TARGARYEN sent a missive to his brother PRINCE DAEMON TARGARYEN informing him of a fleet sent by the CROWN to finally put an end to the conflict. In any case, PRINCE DAEMON TARGARYEN went into action, offering himself as bait to get most of the pirate forces to expose themselves and to be eliminated by the VELARYON army, their ALLIES and SEASMOKE, sealing their victory, at least for now…

I must admit, after finishing HOTD Season 2 I preferred it more when both sides were more shades of grey than the show simply picking to be Team Black all the way. The season's tagline was to pick a side but they don't make the Greens look in any way tolerable, the only good one doesn't even like being there and gives Aemond spoilers of his death (so the previously unclear outcome of the battle of God's Eye is gonna be no surprise to anyone now), the bad things Team Black does is only Daemon and he has a whole Macbeth scenario, gets the GoT Supercut via Weirwood vision, and suddenly all is forgiven because he doesn't want the crown anymore (again, but for real this time). Idk I wish we did better, especially with Aemond. They moved him from mercurial, strategic and, in the book, implied to be a better king than Aegon (they say he wore the crown better than his brother) and turned him into a war-hungry, ignorant, man-child - just another bitter prince after the throne. Also they make him crueler to Helaena rather than lean on his prior softness towards her. The season wasn't bad, but it could've been a lot better.
