Abstract
The above quote describes chaos as an instrument for accessing and maintaining power. A strategy that is employed by various protagonists for their own gain throughout the HBO drama Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones presents an attention-grasping depiction of what human civilization looked like centuries ago, before the introduction of laws and rules deterring people from acting in a manner that negatively affects others. The drama highlights how people with power use this to their advantage. Today’s society is far different from that of Game of Thrones. Importantly, one no longer gets away with just any behavior. Instead, there are rules governing one’s actions and behavior.
