Place 2: King’s Landing
In second place on this list is King’s Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms. It is not for nothing that Catelyn Stark once advised her husband Ned not to go south. Because there, the most powerful individuals on the continent weave their dangerous intrigues. From beheadings to deadly weddings to exploding septs – King’s Landing is not a place where one should feel too safe.
In the end, it is especially one event that causes King’s Landing to have so many casualties: the attack by Daenerys Targaryen. Driven by revenge, she flies over the city with Drogon and rains fire down upon her enemies. An estimated 918 people fall victim to this attack alone.
Number of deaths: 1367
