​@@marcogubert © *The Peoples of Middle-earth, "Of Dwarves and Men"* Near the end of the First Age, the Vales [of Anduin] were occupied by Edain, the ancestors of the Northmen. Those were in confederation with the Dwarves of Khazad-dûm and the Longbeards and provided food in return for Dwarven weapons and precious items. This cooperation continued until the War of the Elves and Sauron, when the Dwarves closed themselves in their mountains and the Men were scattered. - Adûnâi

For someone who have read all of Tolkien books, some of them more than once, I've never come across such a detailed, in-depth, thorough video which presented the universe so well. A funny note to your comment, Tolkien wrote in a letter to (I think) his publisher after having finished writing The Lord Of The Rings saying basically the same as you; that he was happy it was over hehe.

The last time he was selfish was when he missed the first few times elves could attempt to reach Valinor before the first age even truly begun at its worst. Like from that point on since his duty was to build the ships to Valinor and only go there once every elves wishing to leave left Middle Earth with the last ship, he put the dreams of every.single.remaining elf in front of his. Galadriel was a child and he has already been doing his duty for a long time, he saw Gandalf and gave him one of the most powerfull artefacts in the world without hesitation because he knew Gandalf would make better use of it, its stuff Elrond and Galadriel no matter how wise and kind they were would be torn... granted Cirdan was gifted foresight but still, when you are so old Ents would be the type of being closer in age to you than the rest of your kind as they all left for heaven a while back, you get that the patience of the guy was above that of everyone else in the world

The attention to detail is top tier. For example, not all of Mordor was barren. Its southeastern region was an agricultural land. The creators of this video didn't miss that detail and painted that spot(around the lake of mordor) with green colour. I didn't know the continent of Middle Earth was covered with forests in early times until I watched the video. Throughout the ages and after every conflict the land becomes more deforested... Thank you for your amazing work.

It's strange to think that in a way, Morgoth and Sauron defined the elves while they were in Middle Earth. The Noldor largely returned specifically because of Morgoth's deeds while the second and third age saw them have to account their plans around Sauron, all while living and trying to build in settlements that where pale imitations of their elder cities, destroyed after centuries of war with the Dark Lords, and when Sauron and the Mordor were *finally* destroyed...the last major Noldor settlements faded away while the other elves more or less declined with time, there greatest deeds seemingly done as their entire history faded to myth.
@aguy3082
@aguy3082 Рік тому
I think that it is because Elves and Orcs are antithetical to each other, and so thesis + antithesis = synthesis in the form of men, who go either way in terms of allegiance. Once the magical world of clear good and evil, of orcs and elves and ents and wizards and dwarves fades, a world of men is what's left. Magical light and dark are replaced by realistic gray as the world moves from myth into history.

The most Cirdan did himself was helping out against Angmar during the Third Age while the Witch King was messing things up. I think he also helped fight off Dor Daedloth when they LITTERALLY invaded Falas and fucked with his ships, but other than that, all other conflicts involving Lindon were lead by Gil-Galad and Elrond.

In Tolkien's notes there were a few other things that were supposed to happen later in the 4th age. Around the year 220 (forth age) the corruption of men would begin in the story called "the New Shadow." Men would begin worshiping dark cults similar to the "unfaithful" in the time of Numenor. After many centuries of corruption Morgoth would return in another story called Dagor Dagorath (year unknown). This final battle would lead to the destruction of Arda in a Ragnarok / Book of Revelation apocalypse. No living creature would survive the war. After Dagor Dagorath Eru would conduct the 2nd music of the Ainur and remake Arda in it's flawless form as it would be if Arda was never corrupted by Melkor.

@@heremapping4484 It is worth noting that Tolkien abandoned most of this over the years, "the New Shadow" for example is one snippet, he didn't write much more on it as it was very quickly abandoned. The same with Dagor Dagorath, which while potentially still canon to an extent as an end state, it is a topic he later regretted stating anything about, as he preferred in his later years to keep it at best hinted at, concealed. Some wild ideas exist of earlier drafts of the story though. In fact, Tolkien even regretted saying the orcs were corrupted elves and was working on a re-working of the idea in the end; to make it Men corrupted instead. The only reason we have what we have is that the new idea was not finished in his writings, leaving his son Christopher with little choice when creating the Silmarillion to stay with what was clearly established. Sadly i do not have the sources in front of me, nor do i have the links available at this moment (this comes from his letters at least). But it does come via credible Tolkien scholars, that much i can promise. At least this is what i must suspect Juliano was pointing to.

The Dagor Dagorath doesn't occur during the Fourth Age. It's merely the final battle which will bring about a new world at some point. The Fourth Age is when Men begin to rule Arda with the eventual departure of the Elves and isolation of the Dwarves. With Sauron destroyed, Melkor/Morgoth imprisoned, and the Orcs and other dark beings dwindling/going extinct, there is no evil left except that which lies in the hearts of Men. Who knows how many more ages could pass before Dagor Dagorath.

Wonderful effort by you. Only two small corrections: the realm of Morgoth didn't have a name of its own, Dor Daedeloth refers only to the land north of Beleriand in which Angband is located, and the Noldor after Nirnaeth Arnoediad did not flee in Ossiriand, but on Amon Ereb, a hill and fortress on the opposite side of the Gelion river, where Amrod and Amras had their base.
@zenetic9742
@zenetic9742 Рік тому
Small correction: Dagor Dagorath refers to the last battle at the end of Times (Dagor Dagorath meaning „Battle of Battles“) Where Morgoth ultimately gets defeated by Turin and Evil ultimately ends. It’s kind of like Ragnarok. Morgoths realm however truly had no name.

@UCumE4N0oyXA8I3fTErE04Fw no no, i am talking about the one and only Turin, son of Hurin and everything. He is supposed to stay in the Halls of Mandos until the Dagor Dagorath, where he slays Morgoth. I am confused about this myself, since i thought humans would leave Arda after their Death, but apparently they also reside at the halls of Mandos, until they eventually leave the world. Turin at least stays until the Dagor Dagorath. He is also not the only „historical“ Human to fight in the Dagor Dagorath, Ar-Pharazon and his Host are fighting on Morgoths side. Since the Dagor Dagorath is the Tolkien equivalent of Ragnarok this all makes sense to me.

@@Scrungge Tolkien was enraged by the BBC adaption of LOTR back in the 70s, and that one was mostly faithful. There are many ways in which the movies stray away from the books. For instance: -Biomes: the landscape around Minas Tirith is supposed to be fertile farmland, not tundra. -Denethor as a character. -The depiction of Sauron, though admittedly I still like it the way it's done in the movies. -The way Isildur is portrayed in the movies. -The Scouring of the Shire is missing in the movies. -Tom Bombadil is missing in the movies including the whole bit about getting lost in the magical forest. -The Council of Elrond is severely cut short in the movies. -Aragorns arc with the undead soldiers. In the book they help liberate Pelargir from the Corsairs, rather than alleviate Minas Tirith. -The depiction of the beacons, though again I personally prefer the movie way. and a lot of other things. I believe while Tolkien would have loved the soundtrack and some of the actors he'd generally have loathed PJ's trilogy. But this doesn't mean the movies are bad by any means since they can still very well stand on their own as a work, regardless of authorial intent.

I admire the hard work in this video, but there is a couple of critical mistakes (that Karen Wynn Fonstad also made in her "Atlas of Middle-Earth") : Mordor and the Sea of Rhûn already existed in the Years of the Trees and the First Age, they were NOT submerged under the Inland Sea of Helcar. Mordor's early existence is something that is described in the posthumous "History of Middle-Earth" (HoME) volume XII, "The Peoples of Middle-Earth", by Christopher Tolkien published in 1992. Also, "Unfinished Tales" (UT) (1980) tells of how the Druedain travelled towards western Middle-Earth in the First Age by skirting the lands south of Mordor before arriving in Ithilien and then crossing the river Anduin. Similarly, the Sea of Rhûn already existed in the Years of the Trees as a singular body of water, as the "Nature of Middle-Earth" posthumous book published in 2021 describes that the journey of the Eldar towards the West saw them encounter, then traverse the Sea of Rhûn on ships. These are essential and defining elements of Middle-Earth's early geography, since the existence of Mordor and of the Sea of Rhûn pushes the Sea of Helcar further East, and essentially makes the landmass of the continent of Middle-Earth much wider than what is suggested in most maps (while also lengthening by quite a bit the westward journey of the Eldar and of the Atani).

I remember watching Pax Christas's video about LOTR almost IMMEDIATELY before you released this. The fact that the events of LOTR took place in the Third Age, where civilization as a whole as on the decline, prosperous empires had collapsed, and every race was falling into the clutches of an evil force, it really shows Tolkien's unwillingness to let a world so radically different and fantastical compared to our own be without its constant parallels to the human condition, and the NEED for salvation.
