    They are, just indirectly. Kind of like the real world.

    This is kind of a recurring theme in the show (I haven't read the books), with people like Baelish and Varys manipulating things behind the scenes. They believe that information and informal alliances give them power. Their interests often conflict with actual rulers like Cersei who see things differently.
