Interesting Findings

  • House Targaryen was the most googled Great House of Westeros in 16 states, while House Tyrell was the most googled in 10 states.
  • Although the Game of Thrones narrative centers several members of House Stark, only one state (New Hampshire) googled it more than other Great Houses.
  • Across all states, however, House Stark had the most total search volume (the pack survives, baby!), pushing the controversial House Targaryen to second place.
  • Washington, DC was the only US location that googled House Baratheon the most.
  • The intense love-hate dynamic many viewers have with House Lannister did not push the notorious family to the top spot in many states—only four researched the Lannisters more than other noble houses.
  • Of the 16 Houses that got the most search volume in at least one state, 8 were extinct by the end of the series.
