American TV series《House of the Dragon Season 2》Introduction to the relationship between Rhaenyra and Dragon Mother

The recently aired House of the Dragon Season 2 left a deep impression on people, both in terms of the various details of the characters and the climax of the plot.The following is some content provided by the editor about the relationship between Rhaenyra and Dragon Mother in the American TV series-House of the Dragon Season 2-for the general audience.

American TV series - House of the Dragon Season 2 - Rhaenyra should be the great-great-great-grandmother of Dragon Mother, who comes from the lineage of Daemon and Rhaenyra.

One of the big reasons why we feel that the relationship between the Targaryen family characters is particularly complicated is: intermarriage between close relatives and intra-clan marriage.

Such as uncle Daemon and niece Rhaenyra

Perhaps due to the tradition of incest, the Targaryens have a tendency to go crazy.Jaehaerys II Targaryen once said:

Whenever a Targaryen is born, the gods toss a coin into the air and choose madness or greatness.

Another reason is that this family likes to use the same name for their descendants, and the cycle repeats.

So there were many Aegon, Aegon I, Aegon II, Aegon III, Aegon IV...

When everyone is reading, if you encounter the same name, don't get confused and find out which life it is from.
