I don't think the long winters were caused by the NK, but he used them as an opportunity to move South. If one wants to be scientific.....it would seem that the "world" has an odd orbit around their sun.They aren't on Earth.Arya will discover AmericaDepends on if there any any land west of Westeros before you circumvent the globe and get to Essos.
How could they not be on earth?
Humans. Even the same races. Same animals like horses, pigs, sheep, crows etc. Same kind of trees. One moon.
Maybe this is several million years in the future after major geological changes.
Just kidding. I understand "fantasy"
Earth doesn't have years' long winters.
This is an imaginary world with cultural evolution at the medieval stage.
In the lore of the books the long winters were caused by the NK.
Besides, we have had long winters with the solar minimums. In fact there is evidence we may be entering one now that will last for ten to twenty years, maybe longer.
