[QUOTE="Derren, post: 7609116, member: 2518"] I only listed internal wars as the entire point of the council was to bring stability to the 6 kingdoms. There were more external and internal wars with external participation. And as I said, that were not all wars, just the ones I could find quickly. Inside the HRE someone was nearly always at war. And all that, at least partially, because the Emperor was weak thanks to the elective system and only had its own might to enforce his will while the princes did whatever they wanted, especially the stronger ones. So by changing the kingship to being elective they made further war between the houses much more likely. Why should the Lanister not go to war again once they recovered? Or Dorne? Who would stop them? Bran? Why would the other houses lend him troops to fight a war they have no stake in? And after Bran dies, who would they elect? Either themselves or someone powerless which can't tell them what to do. Unless someone is strong enough to bully them into voting for him which causes more friction. [/QUOTE]
