Aegon V Targaryen, also known as Aegon the Unlikely, was the fifteenth king of the Targaryen dynasty in the fictional world of Westeros. He ruled from 233 AC until his death in 259 AC. Aegon was initially not expected to inherit the throne, but he became king after a series of unexpected deaths in the royal family. His reign is noted for its attempts to improve the lives of the common people and for his efforts to unite the realm. Aegon V is also known for his ambitious plans to restore the Targaryen dragons, which had become extinct by his time. His reign faced challenges, including political strife and the growing power of the Baratheons and Lannisters. Aegon’s legacy is marked by his tragic end during the Great Summer and the subsequent civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons.
