I’ve always wondered this. From previous statements in your Volantis essays, you make it seem that the Dothraki will unite behind Daenerys and she will overthrow Volantis. The question I have is would this not go against economic sense. The Dothraki are integral to the slave trade in Essos, being one of the larger suppliers of fresh slaves. By removing the demand for slaves would this not negatively affect them? Also, love the blog.

Glad you like the blog!

And yes, it’s going against economic sense. But when the manifestation of your nation’s prophecy of manifest destiny shows up, economic motives go out the window.
