Samarro Saan: A pirate from a well known family of Pirates from Lys A group of nine seemingly unrelated people join forces. Here we have Essos which for all intents and purposes has been divided since the fall of the Valyrian Freehold. The origins of the war are extremely interesting.

This won't go to deep into the military specifics, as a history and political science student the reasons for and the effects of the aftermath interest me more. So I want to really sink my teeth into this conflict. This is for a variety of reasons, its seen as a continuation of the four Blackfyre wars that came before and it is sometimes overshadowed by the Dance of the Dragons. However, I feel that it doesn't get discussed as much as it should.

The War of the Ninepenny Kings fascinates me greatly.
