History
Myriah was the eldest daughter of the Prince of Dorne during the reign of King Daeron I Targaryen.[2] She had a younger brother, Prince Maron Martell.[1]
In 161 AC, after King Daeron I was killed in Dorne, King Baelor I Targaryen freed the Dornish hostages in King's Landing and returned them to Dorne personally, walking barefoot. Once he reached Sunspear, he spoke with the Prince of Dorne, and agreed upon a peace, which included the betrothal of Myriah to Baelor's cousin, Prince Daeron Targaryen. The two would marry once they were both of age.[2]
Myriah eventually married Daeron, and they would have four sons together: Baelor (born 170 AC), Aerys (born 172–176 AC), Rhaegel (born 173–177 AC), and Maekar (born 174–178 AC).[4] Baelor took after his mother in appearance, with dark hair and eyes.[5][6]
In 184 AC, after the death of King Aegon IV Targaryen, Daeron succeeded him as King Daeron II Targaryen and Myriah became queen.[1]

Behind the Scenes
In A Song of Ice and Fire, the character was originally named Myriah Martell.[7][8] However, when writing The World of Ice & Fire, George R. R. Martin changed her name to "Mariah".[2][4] But when writing Fire & Blood, George changed back to the original spelling, "Myriah".[9] The latest version of The World of Ice & Fire has been edited to change her name to "Myriah".[10]
