Reign of Jaehaerys II Targaryen

“I’m stuck fighting a War I didn’t start, for a Throne I never wanted.”
-King Jaehaerys II Targaryen to Lord John Drumm about the War of the Bloodroyal.
The fifth Crown Administration of Westeros and in the genre and the second of four Kings of the Targaryen Dynasty was King Jaehaerys II Targaryen, or VexiVerse. As opposed to his predecessors long reign, VexiVerse had one of the shortest reigns, at only 2 years before he was succeeded himself. Even in such a short time, he would have two Hand of the Kings, Lord Hand Commander Lewyn Martell, or UnbrokenOath, and Lord Hand John Drumm, or Balefulness. He would be succeeded by his brother, King Aegon VI Targaryen, or PureKieran.
== The War of the Bloodroyal ==
With the Crown and Westeros in absolute anarchy and the rebellion only getting stronger with King Rhaegar I Targaryen’s abdication, King Jaehaerys II Targaryen appointed his own Lord Commander Lewyn Martell as the Hand of the King, marking the first time a Kingsguard had been Hand of the King. UnbrokenOath had also taken charge of leading the war efforts to help with the Master of War. This major military conflict would become known as the War of the Bloodroyal.
== The Battle at Summerhall ==
Just a day before the war, House Targaryen had managed to make peace with House Drumm. King Jaehaerys II Targaryen had offered to former Hand of the King, Lord John Drumm, to succeed him as King of the Seven Kingdoms. Lord John Drumm had declined, and House Drumm declared their allegiance to the Crown house. On the day of the war, House Yronwood and it’s allies outrallied the Crown and their allies by nearly 2 to 1. During the battle, however, smart tactic plans by the Crowns commanders lead to a decisive Crown victory over the Rebels. 
Lord Anders Yronwood and his children were executed, and House Yronwood had become defunct, with most of its former soldiers leaving to join a new house. House Tyrell, another Superhouse lead by Lord Mace Tyrell, or Syrolin, and House Yronwoods closest ally, was also punished for war crimes, and as a result, the House had become defunct as well. This war marked the deaths of two Superhouses. Since this war in late 2016, there has not been a House Yronwood that has seen the level of success as this one.
== Aftermath ==
After the Kings victory over the Rebels, he had reinstated Lord John Drumm as Hand of the King. It was only shortly after he had won peace in the Kingdoms, would he abdicate and name his successor; King Aegon IV Targaryen, or PureKieran.
== Legacy ==
Although his reign was extremely brief, he is still a generally liked King. He didn’t have enough time to enact any policies or show any tactics off, but he was liked by universally everyone, due to him being able to get along regardless of any differences.
