The world of Game of Thrones is big, dark, and full of terror. The two continents even have names, Westeros and Essos, if you didn't already know them. But even though the books go into great detail about the different houses and regions, and the show itself gives information about the different lands, it's hard to get a general idea of the world of Game Of Thrones. This interactive map will allow you to learn more about the kingdoms.

INTERACTIVE MAP OF GAME OF THRONES IN THE STYLE OF GOOGLE MAPS
We've already shown you a map of Game of Thrones detailing the geology of the world of Westeros, but this one focuses more on cities, the different clans and the evolution of the characters in the story. We can thus follow the movements of the most important characters over time, choosing to follow them by chapter or by episode. That of Daenerys Targaryen, for example.
We discover the reliefs, the forests, lakes and rivers, the islands, but also the cities and villages that dot Westeros. And it's very interesting to see. Who knows, maybe one of these places will be visited by protagonists a little later. What's really cool is that you can click on any city to open a page containing information about the place, who is at the head and what is the history of the place. If you are a fan of historical contexts, you will simply love it. To have fun on this map, it's here: https://quartermaester.info/.

Map of Westeros in Game of thrones
Westeros is a very vast territory in Martin's work. This region of the Game of Thrones sagadisplays dimensions close to those of South America. Proof of the extent of this region, its northern part alone is almost the same size as the other known regions combined. On the other hand, its population is much less dense than in the rest of the territory, since Martin tells us of 20 million inhabitants in the year 300. Westeros is home to the seat and territory of several families. The most famous is that of the House of Stark which occupies the north of the region with emblematic places like Winterfell, the Wall, the Neck, Castle Black…
Westeros is also home to House Tully, which occupies the territory of the Riverlands. House Arryn, as its name suggests, has taken up residence in the Vale of Aryyn. The Fred Islands are reserved for the Greyjoys, with the fortress of Pyke, the seat of the family. The Crown Lands are the stronghold of House Targaryen. These include King's Landing and the volcanic island of Dragonstone. House Lannister occupies the Western Lands. The Stormlands are the stronghold of the Baratheons. Finally, the last two great families that occupy the territory of Westeros are the Tyrells, on the of the Reach, to the southwest, and House Martell, to the southeast of Westeros, on the Dorne peninsula.
