This Is Why Daenerys Could NEVER Rule Westeros

Daenerys arrives in Westeros with three dragons, the Dothraki, the Unsullied, powerful allies, and two of the best political minds in the Seven Kingdoms. Cersei is isolated.

The real problem was that the political strategy that made her extraordinarily successful in Essos was almost perfectly designed to fail in Westeros. In this video, we’ll look at why Daenerys misunderstood Westerosi politics, why Cersei and Jaime were sometimes much better at playing the game, what went wrong with Tyrion and Varys, the huge opportunity Daenerys missed with Randyll Tarly, and why conquering Westeros and actually ruling it were two very different problems. 0:00 Why Is Daenerys Suddenly So Bad at This? 0:57 Bad Strategy 5:30 So Where Did She Learn This? 6:33 Politicians Fighting a War 8:01 Missed Opportunity 10:47 The Final Shock THIS Is Why Sansa Had to Destroy Daenerys    • THIS Is Why Sansa Had to Destroy Daenerys   The REAL Reason Daenerys Destroyed King's Landing    • The REAL Reason Daenerys Destroyed King's ...   What If Khal Drogo Never Died?
