Some of them win and some lose, as in the case of all wars. The kings, queens, their hands and soldiers all plan either to maximise or to overcome the geographical barriers. It makes kingdoms stronger or vulnerable to external attacks, it delays the advances of formidable military forces and even springs surprises during the course of the war. In the many wars in the series, geography has been a constant factor influencing outcomes. Martin’s fantasy novels, is free from this geopolitical dictum. Not even Game of Thrones, the popular HBO series based on George R.R.
