Why weren't Stannis and Renly princes?


The Knight of Greenfield

Its been so long since I've actually talked about the books, I'll give a real answer just to work that part of my brain again.

My guess is that its because they were both given lands, Storms End and Dragonstone, respectively, and, even if Robert didn't think they would rebel against him, he (or Jon Arryn more likely) didn't want to start the precedent of having royal princes with lands; which is a good way to end up with rebellions a few years down the line. Bran, Rickon, and Theon, they just got the title, not the lands; they weren't threats.

i like this explanation.
