1) Do you think the marcher lords of the Stormlands, Dorne, and the Reach are more similar to each other or their compatriots in terms of culture, customs, etc.? 2) Do you think the marcher lords of the Stormlands ever self-consciously organized as a power bloc in Stormlander politics? If so, how do you think having a particular faction with hard-to-take castles, kickass archers, and martial traditions have affected the region’s domestic politics?

1. Absolutely.

2. Absolutely not. The marcher lords are territorial, proud, and touchy. The Carons claim to be Lords of all the Marches but no one listens to them and the Swanns dispute their claim to be the oldest House, and so on. They can barely cooperare enough to deal with Dornish raids or Vulture Kings.
