The Targaryen dynasty is at the absolute apex of its power, with more than 15 dragons under their yoke. Most empires crumble from such heights. In the case of the Targaryens, their slow fall begins when King Viserys breaks with a century of tradition by naming his daughter Rhaenyra heir to the Iron Throne. But when Viserys later fathers a son, the court is shocked when Rhaenyra retains her status as his heir, and seeds of division sow friction across the realm.

House of the Dragon is a fantasy drama series set in the world of Game of Thrones, following the Targaryen dynasty at the height of their power with 15+ dragons under their control. The story begins when King Viserys breaks tradition by naming his daughter Rhaenyra as heir to the Iron Throne, triggering a cascade of political conflict that threatens to tear the realm apart. Season 1 premiered on August 21, 2022, with the series confirmed to return for additional seasons.
