A combination of events and circumstances had led to deplorable conditions, subversive mindsets, and general grumbling. Some considered Rhaenyra a usurping whore, others suffered from lack of food, or were burdened by taxation, and some took a more religious view. The Targaryens in power were nothing but a bunch of kin-slaying, sibling-
ing degenerates. Some were merely opportunists - easier to loot when disorder reigns. Whatever their motivation, a peasant uprising in the capital was underway! Thousands of peasants have taken to the streets rioting, pillaging, and looting. Several factions have risen almost overnight. Surely they had been organizing in the shadows all along, waiting for the right moment to strike...

Penalties:
1. For each year one movement is not quelled, it will grow greatly in size and scope
2. If a movement has not been quelled by the start of 133, the capitol will suffer corresponding revenue penalties
3. The movements will actively seek to accomplish their goals, they will not wait to be responded to
For the sake of this RP, consider the Goldcloaks at 3/4 strength
