What are GR(R)M's writing policies?
Hard to prove anything to Tolkien when he's dead
So you admit George won?
>Tolkien children: 4
>gurm children: 0
reproduction is evil thoughever
And in gurms stories evil always wins
So Tolkien wins
maybe if you're a loser who can't be responsible over his own life
No
I'm still re-reading lotr
no longer reading gurm
If George is "winning" just be being alive, he won't be winning for long.
"Won" what? Are you literally moronic?
Source for this? I doubt that he has enough brain power to criticize himself and understand that he did something wrong.
always knew it would end like this for an idiotic series that drummed up interest through cheap writing tricks.
>>Hard to prove anything to Tolkien when he's dead
LMAO. Your rival is dead. Yet he still beats you from beyond the grave.
Movies with this plot point ?
Honestly Tolkien implies all this stuff in his writing by showing the results of their actions and the LoTR appendix.
Aragorn was a deft politician and by marrying Faramir to Rohan he stabilized Gondor’s border regions. The politics were typical of 1000 -1200 era kingdoms. With Gondor being closer to Byzantine in structure and Rohan taking after the Anglo kingdoms. This is all implied with the historically consistent ways the societies armies are described as functioning.
Tolkien was so good at military history that you can see the witchkings military genius versus Saruman’s untrained arrogance n the troop movements they make, which Tolkien austicly times to moon phases in the book.
I really like the part where half of Saruman's plans fail because he loses control over his Uruk-Hai for a whole day when they go out and pillage the surrounding countryside
That's peak amateur hour shit
me too, Martin
?t=917
Does this fat homosexual actually go into tax policies in his horrible book? What a moron. Does anybody have an excerpt from his books or the TV show? I want to see this objectively boring shit.
>Does this fat homosexual actually go into tax policies in his horrible book?
Yeah. Lannisters installed tax for refuges seeking shelter in Kings Landing.
That's it? Tax policies are more complicated than that
Might as well not include it if you have no idea about it, but that hasn't stopped this idiot from focusing really hard on flags while knowing nothing about vexillology
Not during that time period. Taxes were so simple back then. the exchequer system was just a grid where you found and pointed at a square and that was how much you paid
Taxes didn’t get really complicated until like the 17-18th centuries
The only tax that is mentioned is a tax on prostitutes for two sentences. Because Martin is obsessed with sex.
all I have to say is I've read lotr + the hobbit twice as well has his extant works, and I was so disgusted two books into asoiaf that I had zero interest in ever touching a GRRM book again.
tbh I don’t want another volume of lotr about aragorns fricking tax policy. I’m fine just assuming he knew what he was doing.
>What were Aragorn's tax policies?
As True King he installed Best and Fair tax policies and all his subjects loved him
Fake and usurper rulers like Denethor II install greedy and dumb tax policies that do no good to subjects and state and everyone hate such rulers.
Remember boys True Kings only come from True Bloodline of Monarch, and only them can bring prosperity and peace to land. Reject lowborn upstarts, embrace nobility.
Its not like GRRMs writing is very realistic either, you look at european history and their nobility and shit was waaaaay more complex, absolutely insignificant families became rulers of empires just through weddings, everybody was related, the true power belonged to merchants, mercenaries proved way more important than standing armies and war was fought just because.
His books are just as romanticized as Tolkien, just with more blood and sleeze.
Midwife always think cynicism=realism
Martin is a post-modern mess.
>tax policies
>immigration policy
>equal rights
>genocidal policy
>fricking
None of these terms are in the Poetic Edda.
The more he taxed the more he shat
>never bothers explaining it in his works
>in fact treats economy like magic
>10 years of winter
Ooof madone
Brown people think that being inspired by and iterating on a concept with your own ideas means you have no respect whatsoever for the original concept; which is why their civilizations have never innovated anything in history
Who are you referring to?
Taxes are a israeli concept. Aragorn, being an aryan man, would not have collected taxes, but instead relied on charitable giving, and because his kingdom was a high trust white ethno state, people chose to give and were happy to contribute for the good of their tribe.
He didn't need them.
Probably very light, feudal systems just let everyone do what they wanted as long as they paid a little bit of tribute and sent men in wartime. Tolkien did contrast the natural freedom and rights of the West with the oriential/asiatic tyranny of Mordor and its allies.
