Editing Iron Throne (section)

===Daeron II and Daemon Blackfyre===
After [[Viserys II Targaryen]] died of a sudden illness, his eldest son ascended the Iron Throne as [[Aegon IV Targaryen|Aegon IV]], who is remembered in history as "the Unworthy". On his deathbed, Aegon legitimized all of his [[bastard]]s, including [[Daemon I Blackfyre|Daemon Blackfyre]], his bastard son by his cousin [[Daena Targaryen]]. , in which Daemon Blackfyre fought King [[Daeron II Targaryen]] for the Iron Throne.{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Aegon IV}}

Aegon's heir, King [[Daeron II Targaryen]], brought [[Dorne]] peacefully into the realm early on in his reign, by [[Wedding of Maron Martell and Daenerys Targaryen|wedding]] his younger sister [[Daenerys Targaryen (daughter of Aegon IV)|Daenerys]] to his good-brother [[Maron Martell]], the [[Prince of Dorne]].{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Daeron II}} Aegon IV had previously gifted Daemon Blackfyre with the Targaryen sword [[Blackfyre]], typically considered the "sword of kings".{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Aegon IV}} This, combined with the growing Dornish influence at court, brought resentment against Daeron II.

In {{Date|196}}, Daemon announced his claim to the Iron Throne, beginning the [[First Blackfyre Rebellion]]. When he died during the [[Battle of the Redgrass Field]] later that year with his two eldest sons, his remaining children fled to [[Essos]]. [[Blackfyre Pretenders|Four other rebellions]] would follow in the decades that followed. The [[Second Blackfyre Rebellion|second]] and [[Third Blackfyre Rebellion|third]] rebellions took place during the reign of [[Aerys I Targaryen]],{{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Aerys I}} the fourth during the reign of [[Aegon V Targaryen]], {{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Aegon V}} and the fifth and final rebellion as part of the [[War of the Ninepenny Kings]] during the reign of [[Jaehaerys II Targaryen]]. {{Ref|TWOIAF|The Targaryen Kings: Jaehaerys II}}
