Should Harrion Stark destroy the Drowned god religion in the Iron Islands and replace it with the Old Gods?
Added 2023-07-01 10:32:00 +0000 UTCHarry is about to invade the Iron Islands. While he is there, should he make attempts to uproot the Drowned God religion that causes the Ironborn to become pirates?

While ending a culture/religion tends to be difficult you can destroy/dilute enough of it by A. Killing enough people/practicioners or B. Taking away the children and educating/indoctrinating them differently. Now im not going to deny that doing so is deeply unethical by our modern standards but hey certain practices needed to be stamped out and this isn't our modern world, examples must be made and mercies short as a world ending threat is approaching pussyfooting around serves no one but death.

2023-07-01 17:55:53 +0000 UTCHow would such a thing be possible? History shows us that forcibly converting groups of people never works out well. An endless number of wars have been fought over religion. True, I suppose the Andals succeeded, but is the North going to execute the entire populace if they don't convert?
