The War of the Seven Banners was a war fought between the years of 364 and 368 AC between the Kingdom of the Iron Throne and the Seven Bannermen, a group of mercenaries and leaders who had grown impatient and angry at the empty promises which had been made by Aemon Targaryen. The Seven Bannerman were a group of forces that were intent on forcing King Viserys III Targaryen to bend to their demands, and were primarily led by the forces of Myr, Pentos and Tyrosh.
