The Stormlands form one of the constituent regions of Westeros. They were held by the line of the Storm Kings before the last of their number, Argilac the Arrogant, was killed during the War of Conquest by Orys Baratheon, half-brother to Aegon the Conqueror. House Baratheon has ruled the Stormlands from Storm's End ever since.
