Why did Daenerys go mad in the end?

Daenerys's descent into "madness" was a culmination of trauma, isolation, and perceived betrayal, leading her to believe only overwhelming fire and blood could break the "wheel" of power, symbolized by the burning of King's Landing after their surrender, fulfilling her Targaryen heritage and foreshadowed destiny rather than a sudden snap into insanity. Key triggers included losing loved ones (Missandei, Rhaegal, Jorah), betrayal by allies (Varys), the looming threat of Jon Snow's claim, and the realization that Westerosi people didn't automatically embrace her as a savior, pushing her towards her father's ruthless methods to establish her vision of a new world.

Why is Jon Snow's hair black if he's a Targaryen?

Jon Snow has black hair because he inherited the dominant dark hair gene from his Stark mother, Lyanna Stark, which overrode his father Rhaegar Targaryen's recessive silver-gold hair trait, a common genetic outcome in the series as shown by other mixed-heritage characters. Dark hair is generally dominant over pale Valyrian hair, explaining why Jon looks more like a Stark and why other Targaryen descendants (like Rhaenyra's children) also had dark hair.
