Good is relative in BR, much like real life.
Actually as BR was written for AD&D, and good is defined in absolute
terms for AD&D -- "Good" as defined in BR (alignment-wise) is absolute
not relative.
But good as a general adjective - useful for describing almost anything
including many things other than alignment -- yes, well might you ask
"What do you mean by - good? good in what sense?"
There are `good` men who want the
throne and there are other `good` men who believe that the throne should be
theirs. Bad men want the throne also and then other groups like the elves
probably do not want anyone to have the throne. When all of these
conflicting goals meet at that big, black iron throne there is bound to be
bloodshed.
"Bad men" ? c.f. "Evil Men", ... I doubt anyone with purely altruistic
motives seeks the Iron Throne. And most that would seek it would have a
view of themselves as "good" men, even if the truth were otherwise. As
well, they would most likely have to at least portray themselves in some
trustworthy outlook at the very least.
But "good" can also refer to capable.

Since English is the second language of the questioner, I kept the
description fairly complete but linguistically simple.
