Game of Thrones fans have noticed a fun detail when you Google 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.'
"Ser, did you mean: A Knight of the Nine Kingdoms?" read the search engine's suggestion at the top of the page, which is a reference to the season 1 finale.
The A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms ending saw hedge knight Dunk and his young Targaryen squire Egg venture off into Westeros together, but the duo had a slight disagreement before their journey had even begun: just how many kingdoms are there for them to explore?
Egg insists that there are nine, even though there are, famously, seven: the full title of the person who sits on the Iron Throne is the King or Queen of "the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm."
However, Egg may just be a little too clever for his own good, as there are actually nine regions in Westeros: the North, the Vale, the Riverlands, the Iron Islands, the Westerlands, the Reach, the Stormlands, the Crownlands, and Dorne.
Regardless of how many kingdoms are in Westeros, it's a nice nod to the season 1 finale, and only makes us more excited for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms season 2. Filming is currently underway, and the second installment of the spin-off is set to air in 2027.
All episodes of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms are now streaming on HBO Max. For more on what to watch, check out our guide to the best new TV shows still to come in 2026.
