Editing Robert's Rebellion (section)

===Establishment of Baratheon Dynasty===
Following the conclusion of the rebellion, [[Robert I Baratheon]] was successfully installed as the new [[Lord of the Seven Kingdoms]]. Robert named his foster father, [[Jon Arryn]], as his [[Hand of the King]], and he named his middle brother, [[Stannis Baratheon|Stannis]], as [[Lord of Dragonstone]].{{ref|ACOK|Prologue}} Ser [[Jaime Lannister]], Grand Maester [[Pycelle]], and Lord [[Varys]] were pardoned during [[coronation of Robert I Baratheon|Robert's coronation]],{{ref|ACOK|55}} and the new king pardoned Ser [[Barristan Selmy]] as well.{{ref|AGOT|45}}

Robert had no wish to marry following the death of his betrothed, [[Lyanna Stark]], but Lord Arryn convinced him otherwise by informing Robert that the realm was in need of an heir. Jon suggested Lord [[Tywin Lannister]]'s daughter, [[Cersei Lannister|Cersei]], as the marriage would ensure Tywin's support, should [[Viserys Targaryen]] ever attempt to win his throne back.{{Ref|AGOT|30}} Robert and Cersei married in {{Date|284}}.<ref>''See the calculation for [[Years after Aegon's Conquest/Calculations Events#Cersei Lannister's wedding to Robert I Baratheon|Cersei Lannister's wedding to Robert I Baratheon]].''</ref> Maester [[Yandel]] described the marriage as Robert's "first act" as king.{{Ref|twoiaf|The Glorious Reign}}
