Year 136 After the Conquest (136 AC) is a year in the Westerosi calendar, the 136th after Aegon's crowning in Oldtown that maesters and educated people use as a reference to date the years.
The year started with a great gathering of lords in King's Landing to name new regents and a Hand of the King. The four men chosen served for the remainder of King Aegon III's minority. The day Aegon turned sixteen, he entered into the small council chamber and dismissed them all.[1]
