House Tyrell

Seat : Highgarden
Lands : The Reach

Culture : House Tyrell is a powerful noble house. The Reach is the most populous region of the Seven Kingdoms and the Tyrells can field the largest army on the continent, although the Lannisters, being richer, can better-equip their troops. This makes the Tyrells formidable enemies but excellent allies. The Tyrells, while always maintaining firm control of the Reach, have always feared that they have an uneasy grip on their rule.

While the Tyrells possess very fertile lands from which they can raise large armies, there are other powerful noble families in the Reach which don't particularly respect them the way the vassals of the Starks and Lannisters respect them. A great deal of skill at court politics has thus been needed to keep the Tyrells' powerful vassals in check. Therefore, House Tyrell is always on the lookout to secure a marriage into a royal line, to strengthen their prestige and cement their rule over the Reach.
