Dorne was the last of the Seven Kingdoms to swear fealty to the Iron Throne. Blood, custom, and history all set the Dornishmen apart from the other kingdoms. When the war of succession broke out, the Prince of Dorne kept his silence and took no part.
The Martell banner is a red sun pierced by a golden spear. Their words are Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken.
