Aegon IV was a horrible king and person but I don't think anything he did was as bad as when Aerys tried to kill half a million people. Unless I missed something.

Floki of the Ironborn Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Hard to say without more evidence in some cases, but I’ll try: Daeron II Jaehaerys I Viserys II (I’m counting all the time he ruled under three useless kings. Shame that he raised such a monster of a son to succeed him) Aegon V (I want to rank him #1 because he seems like the only king who actually cared about his subjects and wasn’t crazy like Baelor, but he couldn’t follow through and he also really let his kids screw things up) Maekar Aegon I (mixed bag: I hate that he went around conquering just for his own ambition’s sake, but he did put an end to the infighting for a while) Baelor (meant well, but he was also a religious zealot) Aenys Aegon III Aegon II Aerys I Jaehaerys II Daeron I (stupid kid who started a war for his own ego’s sake) Maegor I (for all his faults, he absolutely was right to break the theocracy’s power, Jaehaerys was just lucky he didn’t have to get his hands dirty to finish the job) Viserys I Aegon IV Aerys II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EggBlue Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 1. Daeron II 2. Aegon I 3. Aegon III 4. Aegon V 5. Maekar 6. Jaeherys I (I think he's overrated! and I think he is responsible for the Dance) 7. Viserys II ( his problem was that he became king, destroyed his mother's legacy and put Aegon first in line! all the while he could groom either Daena or Elaena(if the former's bastard was such a big deal) to be a great queen) 8. Aerys I 9. Rhaenyra (yes, I'm counting her . for all her faults , she was the kind of queen who listened to her advisors. if she didn't have to deal with her brother, she would have made a fine enough queen) 10. Viserys I 11. Daeron I 12. Baelor 13. Jaeherys II 14. Aenys 15. Aerys II (he had some good 20 yrs) 16. Maegor (the guy raped his own niece and killed his nephews . but you gotta give him a point for destroying faith militant!) 17. Aegon IV 18. Aegon II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a smear campaign via Jaeharys and the Faith did him dirty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
