The conquerers of and longest ruling royal family in the history of Westeros, the continent where George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" book series and HBO's "Game of Thrones" take place. All around BAMF's that keep dragons as pets and can walk through fire. Fluent in High Valyrian and catchphrases that could burn entire cities to the ground. Also very good at burning actual cities to the ground. Their downfall was incest-induced bat-shit craziness that resulted in feeding each other to dragons, burning down the family vacation home, burning themselves alive, getting stabbed by Lannisters, and drowning in molten gold. Down but not out, Fire and Blood will rain down upon Westeros once again... as soon as their last surviving member figures out which way west is.
“Like their dragons, the Targaryens answered to neither gods nor men.”

“Every child knows that the Targaryens have always danced too close to madness.”

Get the Targaryen mug.When you spend the most of your adult life being amiable, pleasant , and a champion of human rights, and then in a split-second moment of weakness, you transform into a fire-breathing dragon and obliterate anyone standing in your path.

Targaryen Privilege
The outrageous assumption that your people own and have discovered everything.
Women were considered as baby making machines; even though they were Targaryens. A saying in classical Targaryen is:
Striḥ asmākaṃ raktaṃ asmākaṃ balaṃ yoniṃ ca sarvaṃ kintu Purṣaḥ sarvaṃ soubhāgyaṃ dharayanti
Which means:
“Women have our strength, blood, fierceness and 100% of the yoni; but men hold all of the privilege.”
They incestuously intermarried to keep their bloodline pure and developed genetic diseases which they kept as a secret among themselves.
They said of themselves:
“Every time a Targaryen is born the Gods toss a coin and the world holds its breath.”
Their dragons and well trained police force, The Gold Cloaks, kept law and order. Gold Cloaks were famous for extra judicial killings, and summary judgements and executions of accused criminals on the street level. This became known as the “street justice of the Thick Gold Wall.
Whoever the Targaryens conquered, they claimed their achievements and enslaved the people.
When there was no one else to dominate they began to fight among themselves destroying both dragons the Targaryen bloodline. Without their dragons, they were less than the people they had conquered. Without their dominant presence the world divided itself into seven kingdoms.
Wars were fought to redefine privilege. But, Targaryen Privilege died with the last dragon and the last Targaryen.
