Even knowing what was going to happen thanks to the leaks, this ep was still a pain to watch....What a stupid episode....No character ended good for me...Daenerys death scene was bad acted, drogon reaction was literallly unbelievable, Jon was a coward killer in the end, Tyrion was just a manipulative and cheap character, Sansa and Arya became what they wanted ....yay!!??, and oh my god that counsil.... They were discussing the future of Westeros like if they were discussing how they were going to do a party for a friend, with most people not caring and leaving the uncool guy do the thing, in this case Bran, the most boring and useless character ever written.

edit. -"The Iron Islands and Dorne OK with the North being independent and not them, contrary to hundreds of years of history and rebellion."  Don't see why Dorne would demand independence since Lannisters and houses ruling Reach are pretty much wiped out. It wasn't too long ago The Iron Islands rebelled and failed with heavy losses. Surely they'd benefit more from being part of Westeros. I mean, the North makes most sense to push for independence, they were portrayed in the show to be a bit different from the rest.

It really feels some viewers try to twist every single detail to something that doesn't make sense :D

Dorne is by far the most different of the seven kingdoms. It's the only realm colonized by the Rhoynar and the only one which adopts cognatic succession.

Both Dorne and the Iron Islands are also the only realms mostly or entirely devoid of weirwood trees, and thus where Bran would have no power at all.

The fact the other regions are powerless and destroyed by civil war is exactly the sort of situation where independence would make sense, not the opposite. Since no one wants to be tied to a realm facing levies for public works, heavy taxation and economic decline.
