TV series ‘Game of Thrones’ was an apt depiction of raw power and its impact on society.

It blended political loyalty and moral ambiguity in a rare scale, perhaps only comparable to George Orwell’s Animal Farm, popular as ‘Shamba la Wanyama.’

In one episode of the US chartbuster, a character called Tyrion Lannister poses one profound question: What unites a people? Are they powerful armies, gods or flags? He concludes that nothing can ever be more unifying than a good story.
