Which is ripe for secession crisis. Dany's claim is she was he brother, the King's heir. Jon's claim is Viserys (2)

(18) He is dead, so it goes on to, possibly Daenerys. If she died or didn't count by being female, it becomes very hard to figure out,

(17) Regardless, she's dead, so it goes to the same place. Back through Rhaegar and up to Aerys, and onto his second son, Viserys.

(16) However, the Targaryens sometimes didn't let it pass to the girl at all, in favor of moving back up the line and looking for a male.

(15) In the older past (and most family in Westerns) would pass it to the female line, so it goes to Rhaenys, Aegon and Jon's older sister.

(14) After Aegon, next in line is Jon Snow IF he is actually legitimate. If he is not, there's two possibilities.

(13) Aegon is dead (or thought to be; in the books someone claims to be him and to have escaped being murdered in Kings Landing).

(12) So. When Aerys died, the succession should have been to Rhaegar. He was dead, so the crown continues to his firstborn son, Aegon.

(11) He also had Jon Snow. Jon Snow's legitimacy is to be seen. Maybe Rhaegar secretly married Lyanna. We don't know.

(10) dead without an heir). Anyway, his children were, in order, Rhaegar, Viserys, and Daenerys. Rhaegar had two children, Rhaenys and Aegon

(9) can be ignored, but they are factored in too; they just get the crown and then pass it back up to Aerys again immediately since they are

(8) So, in the case of the Targaryens, Mad King Aerys had three children (who lived long enough to have heirs; the ones who died young

(7) considered ignored. So in other words, second son. Third, etc. Then daughters.

(6) The crown is passed up to the previous generation, and the process starts over, this time with the entire line that has already been

(5) If at some point the current King (even a split send king) is dead, and there is no one to pass the crown to, rule 2 comes into effect.

(4) So, as is in the first rule, his first son becomes King, if he has one. If he doesn't his daughter does (again, dead or alive).

(3) It doesn't matter if that son is dead, he "becomes" King for a split second. If he is dead, you treat it like he was King but then died.

In male primogeniture, which is what is practiced in GoT, and was up until recently in the British Monarchy, that doesn't matter. (1)
