westeros is totally britain tbh

north/south divide is the most obvious example
-posh rich liars down south along with the seat of rule, piss poor rough but honest folk up north, angry about their lack of autonomy
-great big fuckoff wall dividing the terrifying scots wildlings from the rest of us
--neverending winter in the far north
from the wall everybody is south - a scottish bloke said the exact same thing to me once when i got butthurt about him calling me a southerner

just replace whippets with dire wolves lol
