'''Year 41 After the Conquest''' ('''41 AC''') is a year in the [[Years after Aegon's Conquest|Westerosi calendar]], the 41st after [[Aegon I Targaryen|Aegon]]'s crowning in [[Oldtown]] that maesters and educated people use as a reference to date the years.

It was the first year of the [[Faith Militant uprising]], sparked by the announcement by king [[Aenys Targaryen|Aenys]] of the marriage between his son [[Aegon Targaryen (son of Aenys I)|Aegon]] and his daughter [[Rhaena Targaryen (daughter of Aenys I)|Rhaena]]. The Starry Sept condemned the incestuous union, and expelled Septon Murmison from the Faith for having performed the nuptials. Murmison was murdered by an angry mob , and by the end of the year much of the realm had risen against House Targaryen.
