House Stark’s Secret Kingdom in ASOIAF

A Song of Ice & Fire is a series filled with intricate geopolitics, complex character drama, and tons of magic. But in the background of ASOIAF lore, there are massive mysteries left unsolved. Maesters, commoners, and even some lords debate the existence of land beyond the Sunset Sea - west of Westeros and east of Essos. Could a hidden kingdom run by an ancient branch of House Stark rule there? Is this land responsible for oily black stone? How does this affect Strong Belwas's legacy?
