House of the Dragon has revitalized the Game of Thrones fandom with its highly anticipated Season 2 release, kicking off the battle between the Blacks and the Greens. In this Targaryen civil war set 200 years before Game of Thrones, Rhaenyra Targaryen vies for her crown, which was usurped by her half-brother Aegon Targaryen through the workings of Otto and Alicent Hightower.
