The last season of Game Of Thrones looms close and it has the Red Cross wondering: who has committed the most war crimes in the series?

In case you haven't heard (you definitely have) the eighth and final season of Game Of Thrones premieres next week.

Everyone is aching to know will sit atop the Iron Throne come the series conclusion.

Predictions have been made based on everything from show history to how characters are posed in promotional photos.

While everyone's been fretting if Cersi is strong enough to take Daenerys down, the good people over at the Red Cross have been investigating the issues that really matters.

Which Game of Thrones character is the biggest war criminal?

A team of Red Cross war experts cross checked the actions of GOT characters with International Humanitarian Law to discover who is the biggest offender.

Let's break it down, shall we:

#1 Ramsay Bolton: 17 war crimes

Possibly GOT's most hated villain (for everyone that partially forgets Joffrey's reign of terror) Ramsay Bolton notches up an impressive 17 war crimes.

These include but are not limited to six cases of torture (poor Reek), taking hostages, and sexual violence.

#2 Daenerys Targaryen: 15 war crimes

Yep, the mother of dragons and show favourite Dany is only two crimes behind Ramsay "I literally cut off a prisoner's genitals" Bolton.

Considering how many people Dany has commanded her dragons to singe to a crisp, it kinda makes sense.

Making up most of Dany's wrongdoings are torture, passing judicial execution sentences without judgement of a court and use of means or methods of warfare (that DRAGON FIRE, baby).

#3 Roose Bolton: 8 war crimes

The war criminal doesn't fall far from the tree. Ramsay's father, who had a taste for skinning people alive comes in at number three.

Roose racks up all the suspected crimes like torture, wilfully killing (RIP Robb Stark) and sexual violence.

The rest of the character rank quite low in the terms of war crimes, with brat king Joffrey Baratheon coming in with three infractions.

Even Stannis Baratheon who LITERALLY BURNT HIS DAUGHTER ALIVE only committed one war crime.

Why did the Red Cross do this?

You might be wondering why a global aid relief organisation is spending time and resources on ranking TV characters.

Us too. Lucky, they have a pretty noble explanation.

The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement work every day to educate people all over the world that wars have laws.

"A pop culture phenomenon like Game of Thrones is a great way to help people in countries that are not experiencing war connect these important real-life rules to a scenario they are familiar and engaged with," says Yvette Zegenhagen, National Manager of Australian Red Cross' International Humanitarian Law program.

So just think about that when it comes time to tip who will end up on the Iron Throne.
