Tolkien also based on many stories including just simply history. He didn't see medieval ages right? :) Not every story you have knights, kings and dragons have to base on it :P. For sure Tolkien made it much easier for other writers to add fantastic creatures, characters as it is all there in his books described in detail. Today not that many people read the trilogy comparing to 50 years ago :P. Maybe they saw movies.

@Mbern45 Asian works (particularly from Japan) are subjugated to their own "Tolkiens". As for Western fantasy, I still think there's some room for innovations. There are many creatures and magical races from all of Europe that Tolkien didn't include, not to mention the largely unexplored African folklore.

It always felt like a lot that Elendil's remaining lifetime went from the Fall of Númenor to the Last Alliance, in the meantime establishing Gondor with all its cities and monuments. But it makes more sense understanding the Faithful's extended lifetimes and that the lands that became Gondor weren't exactly unpopulated. Still it would be interesting to find historic precedents for how fast flourishing city-states and fortresses were established and built in real history. We may seriously underestimate what our stonemason and horse powered forebears accomplished.

Why don’t the elves play much of a role in the events of the Third Age? Like why do they assist Arnor in its fight against Angmar but not Gondor in their wars with the Easterlings and Haradrim? Ultimately what causes the Old Alliance of Elves and Men to fail? Anyway thanks for the video Matt! Another Excellent one! I love seeing the history of Gondor and how reminiscent it is of its ancestor Numenor.

I'm curious about your take on what I consider to be the strangest aspect of Middle-Earth history, which Tolkien apparently never attempted to explain: in the relatively short time of 100 years, Elendil and his sons escape the downfall of Numenor and found both Gondor and Arnor, building Minas Anor, Minas Ithil, Annuminas, and the Emyn Beraid (at least). They also had a big enough army to be a substantial part of the War of the Last Alliance. They apparently did this with NINE SHIPS worth of people. Even if each ship carried 1,000 people (unlikely), this still doesn't add up. Do you know of any letters or footnotes where this was discussed? It's in the back of my head somehow that they "became the kings of" people who already existed in Eriador and Gondor, but I don't know where I read it or if I'm just making that up. Thanks!

Was going to make my own comment about this but you already pointed it out. Tolkien's Appendices blew my mind when I found out how many things I had mispronounced. C = K, DH = TH, AE = I, G is always hard so Region sounds out as Reg'-ee-on instead of sounding like Legion. Re-reading the Silmarillion with this insight was murder at first.

Tolkien himself likened Gondor in a degree to ancient Egypt, in terms of how Gondorians constructed gigantic stone structures, and the Crown of Gondor being similar to the crown of the Pharaohs of Egypt. Notably some "scholars" claimed that ancient Egypt was a colony of Atlantis, much like how Gondor was a survival of Numenor (although it is unknown if Tolkien considered this aspect).

I was baffled listening to the LotR appendices for the first time and learning about the lines of Anarion and Isildur and just how much Gondorian lore and history was JAM PACKED into them that only serves as untold backstory to the books themselves

There's Lord of the Rings Online, which is an MMORPG, but the game's admittedly not designed for sightseeing.

@Linfindel of Gondolin yeah I have seen it but it just doesn't appeal to me. It would be great if we could get an open world skyrim style game.

Where is the majority of this subject covered in Tolkien's writings? I have read the LOTR trilogy, The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, The Children of Húrin, Beren and Lúthien and The Fall of Gondolin. It's not in those as far as I recall. Thanks!

Gondor and Arnor exemplify the theme of decline so prevalent in Tolkien's work

They need to make three more movies of the stories leading up to this battle and then the battle itself

Another great video for me rewatch over and over again 😂. Where do you get the background music from? Is it from the LOTR soundtrack?

The story of Ondoher, Fíriel, Arvedui & Co. would make such a great movie or TV show. Let us hope someone at WB comes up with that idea.
