I'm English. He gave Wales less than the Welsh would label as theirs, but infinitely more than he should have done.

This is like something I would draw. Incredibly complex at the start (East Coast) then get progressively lazy and make the areas larger and larger as I moved to the West.

It takes a lot of cues from the War or the Roses - Yorks and Lancasters = Starks and Lannisters.

But GRRM has basically said he used history as inspiration, not necessarily as an allegory.

You're probably right. There are aspects of this hill thing that I haven't considered. It's my own fault for not considering the gulf of jokes out there.
