how are daenerys and jon related

Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow (Aegon Targaryen) are related as aunt and nephew.

1. Parentage: Daenerys is the daughter of King Aerys II Targaryen (the Mad King) and Queen Rhaella Targaryen. Jon Snow is revealed to be the son of Daenerys’s older brother, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, and Lyanna Stark. This makes Daenerys Jon’s aunt.
2. Targaryen Bloodline: Both Daenerys and Jon belong to House Targaryen, a noble family known for its dragons and distinctive silver hair. Jon’s true parentage is a significant plot point in Game of Thrones, where he is initially believed to be the illegitimate son of Eddard Stark (Lyanna’s brother).

This familial connection is crucial to the narrative, as it impacts the political dynamics in Westeros and the characters’ relationships throughout the series.
