Andals took with them their new found religion called the faith of Seven. In the present time of westeros that is the religion most people believes in including the Riverlands & Stormlands.It's important to know that a lot of the families and dynasties that live in westeros did not originate in westeros. All of them came from the lands of Essos except the children of the forest according to history.The Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, the king on the Iron Throne, claims to be the King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men.You can see & read both in the show and the books, whenever Eddard delivers a sentence, he describes all these 3 major ethinic groupsThe Andal Invasion Andals in Essos The Andals are said to have originated in the Axe of northern Essos, although some say they came from south of the Silver Sea. They migrated and established Andalos in northwestern Essos, stretching south as far as the Flatlands and the Velvet Hills and engaging in conflict the with tribes that inhabited those lands, such as the so-called "hairy men". Legend tells that they were visited by the incarnations of the Seven, who crowned their first king, Hugor of the Hill. They learned the art of working iron from the Rhoynar who lived along the Rhoyne. It is unknown when the Andals sailed west across the narrow sea from Andalos to Westeros, with some sources dating the Andal invasion to six thousand years ago. According to the True History <a href="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/True_History" target="_blank">(click)</a>, it occurred four thousand years ago, and some maesters claim it was only two thousand years ago <a href="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Andals" target="_blank">You can check more details about the andals here</a> <img src="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/images/thumb/f/f1/The_free_cities_Adwd_map.jpg/400px-The_free_cities_Adwd_map.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> You can check here where the andals lived in essos Foundation of the Faith: In the hills of Andalos on Essos, a new religion takes shape, called the Faith of the Seven. Supposedly, the supreme deity of the Andals appears to them, guiding them into their invasion of Westeros. The Andals cross the narrow sea and make landfall on its eastern shore at the Fingers, on what would one day become the Vale of Arryn. They come under the banner of the Faith of the Seven, with seven-pointed stars carved into their chests, wielding weapons of steel. They fight both the First Men and the children of the forest, sweeping the land much like the First Men did thousands of years before. For centuries the Andals war with the First Men and the children in an attempt to drive them out. One by one, the six southron kingdoms fall and the weirwoods are burned. Only the Kingdom of the North remains under the rule of the First Men, in large part due to the strategically located fortress of Moat Cailin resisting multiple attempts to take it and thereafter serving as the door between North and South. Even though the North remain secure, the children of the forest begin their slow withdrawal from the lands of men, retreating deeper into their forests and north of the Wall. Later on, the Iron Islands also fall to the Andals, ending the first line of kings ruling there uncontested for over a thousand years, originating from Urron Greyiron. Unlike in the other regions, however, Andals are assimilated to the native beliefs of the Old Way and the Drowned God. <img src="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/images/2/25/HBO_Andals_conquer.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> An Andal killing First Men Battle of the Seven Stars <img src="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/images/b/b7/Battle_of_the_Seven_Stars.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Battle of the Seven Stars was a massive battle that took place at the foot of the Giant's Lance during the Andal invasion of the Vale. Septon Mallow wrote an account of the battle. The First Men of the Vale were defeated, and dominion over the Vale was claimed by House Arryn and their Andal supporters. <a href="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Battle_of_the_Seven_Stars" target="_blank">(Click For More Details)</a>Culture Brought By Andals Andal culture is marked by the strong influences it has had on the culture of the Seven Kingdoms. The Andals brought the Faith of the Seven to Westeros and with it the warrior tradition of the knight. The Andals used iron, while the First Men used bronze. The Andals also brought a superior writing system that supplanted the First Men's runes. According to George R. R. Martin, hardly any Westerosi are pure Andal or First Man after thousands of years of interbreeding. <img src="http://static.srcdn.com/slir/w570-h288-q90-c570:288/wp-content/uploads/Game-of-Thrones-Prequel-Series-HBO-570x288.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />For more information check out - <a href="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Andals" target="_blank">Andals</a><a href="http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Battle_of_the_Seven_Stars" target="_blank">Battle Of The Seven Stars</a> <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/D.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
