what were the numbers of the Riverland and northern houses troops/levies in total and how much did each house provide in the war of five kings?

  • each house only provided what levies/men at arms it could provide quickly to Robb, not full numbers
  • some houses barely sent any levy/troops(Dustin)or keep levy back like bolton he had 600 men at arms in the battle of Winterfell
  •

Well, the minimum estimated strength of the North is around 35k men (Ran), although if I recall he excluded Skagos from that number.

My estimate is 45k, based on the semi-canon RPG numbers, and Martin's statement placing the North roughly equal to Dorne back when Dorne was rumored to be in the region of 50k (before Dorne was downgraded to the weakest kingdom).

Anyway, even at 35k, the North would have left around 15k men behind when Robb marched South.
