Finally revealed! Not Jon Snow or Daenerys Targaryen, but this country gets Game of Thrones' Iron Throne

Follow us on

Ever since the first season of Game of Thrones began, there have been a constant fight for the Iron Throne that's seated in King's Landing. Several have died while making their ways to the Iron Throne, including Robb Stark, Renly Baratheon, Stannis Baratheon and Lord Petyr Baelish. As Game of Thrones season 8 approaches its end, Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen are the final contenders for the Iron Throne with most of the Westerosis pledging allegiance to the half-Targaryen boy. However, with a rather ironical turn of events, the Iron Throne has found its rightful heir in something rather different. 

Russian authorities claim that they have seized the Iron Throne. Traders set up a replica of the throne featured in the HBO drama in a main square of Saint Petersburg for passersby to take pictures with, city hall said Tuesday. But during a raid, officials seized the seat, which they said was installed in the former imperial capital illegally.

They did not provide details of the throne's location or whether it would be returned. The last episode of "Game of Thrones", which has enjoyed worldwide success over eight seasons, will be broadcast on Sunday. According to a survey by state pollster VTsIOM, one in ten Russians are watching the US series.
