Actually, it's really obvious why the Faith Militant has no presence in White Harbor: the Starks. House Stark probably made it very clear to the Manderlys they would not tolerate the Faith Militant up North. To do otherwise would seriously threaten national security.

how would the faith of the seven -headcannon wise- have their own catholic vs Protestant differences ideology wise? Or even a sunni vs shia differences?

Good God, where do I even start?

How does the "Seven are One and the One Seven" work exactly?

Are the gods of other faiths demons, aspects of the Seven, or lesser gods?

Can holy texts be translated and sermons given in people's native tongues or must both be in the original Old Andali dialect?

Can kings appoint members of the Most Devout or only the High Septon?

Anti-High Septons

Is the Starry Sept the undisputed head of the Faith (and if so why when the Vale is where the Andals first landed and the Westerlands the wealthiest?) or merely the first among equals?

What would be considered acceptable and unacceptable deviations when it comes to rites?

For or against iconoclasm?

Fate of the non-Faithful, including infants and children? Are the Seven Hells eternal?

Disputed elections, scandals, murders, nepotism, the works

Thanks for the question, anon

In Dorne after the Conquest, I could actually see a High Septon arising against the one in King's Landing. Any High Septon that tolerates incest and shuts down the Faith Militant is no true High Septon.

I can’t stop laughing at Carrie being told “NO” by Mark. Also, Harrison Always Knows Best.

This is from a documentary called “From Star Wars to Jedi” released in 1983. Thanks @wookieekisses because I found that bit thanks to your post!

my hottest take

[allaboardtheloonyexpress]

Two words: Andal Invasion.

Based on what WOIAF said, my guess is the Starks only defeated the Boltons when the Andals showed up. This makes sense. The Bolton lands are on the East Coast, where the Andals would land.

My theory is the Andals forced the Boltons to seek Stark protection. Meanwhile, the Starks had to give the Boltons lenient terms. After all, only the two houses together could beat the Andals.

Why do you think the Boltons survived their Rebellion again House Stark and House Greystark didn't? For that matter given that they are proven to be historically disloyal why didn't House Stark seek to curtail their power so they weren't as much of a threat that they could rebel again?

No clue. It could have been a House Gardener situation where the male members of the House died on the field. They could have all joined the Night's Watch as penalty for taking arms against their distant cousins. The Lord Stark who waged that war may have come down harder on House Greystark because they were distant familial relations. Without any greater details, all we can do is make a guess.

As to why House Bolton wasn't curtailed more, perhaps the Boltons were able to find the Starks to a standstill and secure a more equitable treaty for the cessation of hostilities. Again, we'd need details to even begin to make educated guesses.

Thanks for the question, Anon.

This is ultimately what will stop Generative AI from replacing artists. Also, actual creation, particularly of a distinct visual, is impossible with something only trained to replicate the work of others.
