The series is set in the fictional Seven Kingdoms of Downton, stately home of the Earl and Countess of Grantham, and follows the lives of the aristocratic Crawley family and their servants early in the reign of King George V, where summers span decades and winters can last a lifetime. The series spans the two years prior to the Great War, commencing with news of the sinking of the Titanic, an event that sets the story in motion. It chronicles the violent dynastic struggles among the kingdom’s noble families for control of the Abbey; as the series opens, additional threats from the third cousins and Americans are simultaneously beginning to rise.
