Game of Thrones creator responds to show's biggest criticism

is based on... a period called the Anarchy," he said."Henry I, King of England, his only legitimate son, drowned while trying to cross the Channel. He was left with one legitimate child, his daughter Matilda who he named his heir and the Lords swore fealty to her.

"Some years later, he died and the Lords said, 'Oh that oath doesn't apply, because here comes her cousin, Stephen', who crosses the Channel quickly and steals the treasury and gets himself crowned King, and you enter a period called the Anarchy. "Maude, or Matilda as she was known, and Stephen fought for a decade to two decades, and it was horrible and bloody. I don't think Westeros was more anti-woman or misogynistic than real life history. People fear change."
