I think I read in your CBC that the North/Starks are portrayed as “superior” to other houses and kingdoms. Winter is coming, Our way is the way of the First Men, The North remembers and their huge impact in the fandom tend to prove that they’re the coolest, but do you think it’s deliberated or just implicit racism? Could you ellaborate on which other aspects contribute to this? Dorne has more reasons to be admired but yet it’s not so likeable, is it because they’re introduced much later? Thanks!

I think it’s just that the Starks are the protagonists, so GRRM makes them coolest and their story is the most important one.
