Act 2 really has a lot of political assassinations left and right and it makes sense that after the big country stabilizing person of Robert is gone and not an immediate and consolidated replacement ascended the throne - all the minor plots and actors could act. Then they all met their ends and now we’re eventually going to be in act 3 with all the unsung heroes in waiting

Exploring history through the framework of political assassinations or attempts is really interesting. Like now it’s easy way to describe the first act breaks in asoiaf - act i opened with Jon Arryn and ended with Robert and Ned. Act 2 ended with Robb, Catelyn, Tywin, Oberyn, Balon, LC Mormont, Lysa, Kevan
