Originally House Sweet ruled from the isle of Sweetport Sound off the western coast of the Hook. But during the early years of the [[Coming of the Andals|Andal Invasions]], the [[Andals]] of [[House Sunglass]] landed on their shores in force with fire and steel, laying waste to their weirwoods, slaughtering their smallfolk, and fully displacing the Sweets from their ancestral lands. Under the leadership of Owen Sweet, they fled from the isle with what fighting men they had left and found refuge with King [[Justin Milk-Eye|Justin I Massey]] of the Hook who granted them new lands and titles within the Hook in exchange for their loyalty.
The Sweets are in some way connected to [[House Beesbury]] in the [[The Reach|Reach]], though whether through a second son, a bastard or a daughter married off is unclear.

Since their bitter exile from their land they have an especially violent rivalry with House Sunglass who they regard as thieves and usurpers.
