I would love if you could do something like this for all the races of middle earth.
this^
Elves specifically ❤️✨💚
woot-woot, three of my favorite topics, History, Geography, and Tolkien's Legendarium. Thanks for another great video!
I really wish we had more info on Harad and Rhun. They seem so interesting, and the wars between them and Gondor unfortunately seemed one sided.
Love the Dunlandings too! Their wars with Rohan were complex and I could see their side more than Rohan's! (Although I also love the Rohirrim. Rohan's probably my favorite kingdom of men!)
Love Arnor too!
With if the Book of Westmarch is just Gondorian propaganda?
Just got home from a long day out and getting around to sit down and relax and BAM an upload from my favorite creator. Thank you again!
Just about to go to sleep, but not now until I watch this video. Top notch video, as usual, and so much context. Thanks for all you do for us each week.
Ah men. Weakest of the free peoples yet Eru's favorite
Hasan Wilson how they weakest they are the most numerous and diverse of all people.
All dragons were slain by men and men provide the bulk of the war effort.
It'sJust Me when contending with the will of the Dark Lords men seem to get the hardest hit
Hasan Wilson maybe because the are the biggest threat to the dark lords so they go after them the hardest
It'sJust Me not to mention how easily corruptable they are compared to Dwarves, Elves and Hobbits
Actually, It'sJust Me. If I remember correctly, all Dragons who were *named* were slain by men. Many unnamed Dragons were slain by dwarves. But I agree with you that humanity isn't weak. They're the most diverse and adaptable.
Great video as always Yoystan! I enjoyed the music in this video.
This is what I wait for on Sundays, good work Yoystan!
Yet another factastic video here, I loved it, your description of the lands of Middle Earth were both informative and interesting, as to what my favorite land would be, I would have to say Rivendell aka Imladris or Merkwood as they are both dwelling places of the Elves and I, like Bilbo Baggins, have always liked elves a great deal.
Once again you've done a brilliant job here as you always do, well done, well done indeed.
Just the video to wake me up!!! Good morning/night to y'all!!
So cool! Couldn’t wait for this notification all weekend.
I had an idea for a future topic.
Food in middle earth and the different eating habits of hobbits, elves, dwarves etc...
So everything from "Butter scraped over too much bread", "Just tea, thank you" to "Ripe meat off the bone"
Lembas bread too!
GeorgiaWarBoy81 True, but a video about Middle Earth's economy of food, about agriculture, livestock, hunting, trade and so on that'd be a nice one.
There's some cheese here! This wine has a fruity bouquet
Hello, I recently discovered your channel and I cannot express how grateful I am for what you are doing and hopefully will continue to do for a long time. Every time when I want to escape to Middle Earth I watch your videos. Thank you!
Great video Yoystan. Thank's for the good work!
Your videos are so detailed and beautifully put together! I always enjoy your content!
Awesome video!! Do one of beleriand!
Fantastic yoystan!! Great vid as usual. Specially loved the visuals and music as well!! Do one with all the races in midgard
Your vids are really good bro. It you and Geekzone I come to for great middle earth lore videos
Josepiie Robinson Thanks man, I really appreciate it! Geekzone is really great!
I love your videos and how they are built, i enjoy it a lot and it makes my day a little brighter and i am very greatful that you take your time and create these incredible videos and deepen our knowledge in the lore of the LOTR.
That was great. I always enjoy looking over every map of middle Earth I can. It was nice to have the history alongside the visuals.
Hey Yoyston great video! I think a video on how day to day life would be for the free peoples. Would be very interesting
This is one of the best youtube video on Middle Earth. Keep it up.
I would love to see some speculative videos from you.
Examples: Economy &Taxation, Government & Administration, Military & Warfare, Culture & Civilisation, Arts & Architecture etc.
I would love a history or theory video on the dead marshes
I loved this video, as always❤
You should definitely do a video on the Elven people(Vanyar, Noldor and Teleri) and their lands etc. If you haven't already done one
Every week you make me Travel in Middle-earth and this is without prise.
Thank you Yoystan, my friend
Just found your channel, and I love it! I've been a fan of LOTR for a while, but I never got deep into the lore. Can't wait for more videos from you! :D
Epic character history of Gandalf! From his arrival to his departure!
wonderful video as usual Yoystan!
loving your videos mate
What a fantastic video please do more in this geography series.
Highly informative. Thanks!
Excellent video as usuall. You really make Middle Earth come to life. If only i could visit it and see that it is exactly the way you describe it
Thanks for the great video, I would love to see more of these. If you wish to continue these geographical videos, you might want to get yourself a copy of "The Atlas of Middle-Earth". It's full of maps accompanied by relevant descriptions etc.
While I am a fan of Lotr, I have recently taken some time away from it to read other books, which has led me to forget quite a bit. But thanks to great channels and videos like this, I'm slowly getting back into Lotr. Keep up the good work!
WOW so much information, I suggest everyone replay this a few times! Awesome work ! =))
This is my bed time channel. Keep the vids coming.
Excellent video as always! Thanks!
Nice work dude thanks
Thanks for the upload 💚
What is known about the lands east of Rhun and Mordor?
It is thought to be the location Orocarni mountains and the eastern adjacent Wild Wood, where the elves were awoken, although that would have been so long ago and Arda is so volatile that it's basically speculation.
@MallarRallam that's true
There were the lakes of Cuivuenen where Elves awoke and Hildoren where Men awoke. 4 houses of the Dwarves do live there. The Blue Wizards went east and never went home- Alatar's master was Oröme the Vala, who rode in these lands hunting evil beasts.
There is a kine (like a large buffalo) called the Kine of Araw that lives south of the Sea of Rhun. Its horn is a prize for hunters, including Boromir's ancestor Voronwë who passed it down his line until it became the sign of the heir of the Steward, and then later cloven in two by the Uruk-hai.
The wine country of Dorwinion is said to be on the southwest coast of the Sea of Rhun. The Sea itself is sighted by Frodo on the Seat of Seeing at Amon Hen.
Tolkien purposely left the east unremarkable so that the mystery will remain.
Iv'e learned a lot about middle earth from your videos! Well presented too. Would you consider doing a feature length episode?
Awesome video! Hope you can make a video estimating the numbers of the population of the first age, second age, and third age. Thanks! Good luck as always!
A feast for you my friend, it is well deserved being one of the last remaining lore masters. Your services are well received.
Awesome video!!! Keep up the amazing work!!!
damn dude i really enjoy your vids. Keep up the great work
Very Good VIDEO! Improv much from 400 subscribers! Good job
Loved this video! Love all your videos. You may have gotten this question before, but what made you want to do this?
Thank you. Love your videos! :D
A heartwarming message at the end but, I saw enough orcposting memes to know it is a bad idea.
Excellent Video, Very Enjoyable and Entertaining, Enjoyed! 👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐💯
Love it!!!!! Keep it up :)
I love your videos. Thanks for making me a happy geek 🤓
Nice work dude
Interesting video...thank you for sharing it with us...
As always, I loved the vid. May need to rewatch it! Can't wait for next weeks,
Love from a Hobbit
Thank u so much for making this video
Didnt watch thr video yet but pretty sure it would be awesome
Hoping that u will focus on this series
Lastly, Can u do more of lore reviews?
Great video my friend.... Love the channel..
you deserve way more subscribers! and i still waiting for forts video ;)
Definitely my favourite part of the legendarium is the geography! Thanks!
Great video as always! One question, do “half-trolls” really exist in the Legendarium or is it some kind of in-universe racist slur towards other men (given that the original quote reads “like half trolls?”) It’s a bit unclear.
Idk
Idk
I’m watching this in class
Forochel was one of my favorite areas in LOTRO. Beautiful landscape.
I like how you informed us on the Hard and Rhun. I want more stuff with Easterlings, Haradrim, and Olíphaunts.
I want a Farmer Maggot sequel.
Nice mount and blade art
Brilliant video :)
Love this so much
Wonderful!
Nice video. You forgot some groups though, like the Fisherfolk of Enedwaith, which are rumored in the Lore to be connected to the Clan Haleth from First Age. People who never travelled to Beleriand and who were in Conflict with the Numenoreans, when these landed on their shores and cleared their forest. You also forgot the Beornings and the Men of Mirkwood. I'm also pretty sure that Dorwinion was never a part of the North Men Kingdoms of Rhovanion, but Kindgom mostly glad in myths.
I see that you use a couple of images from the Middle-Earth roleplaying game in your presentation. Also, did you make any use of Karen Wynn Fonstad's excellent "The Atlas of Middle Earth"? I have both editions of her work, plus having the pleasure to spend a lunch with her talking about her work and Middle Earth. I have found them quite valuable when used with both "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings".
Pls do fortresses like Dol Guldur and cities of middle earth, i so admire fortresses of middle earth.. how, who and why are they build and some events that take place there.. thank you for your effort to explain in so detail, i love your vids, namarie
i loved it.i would like to know more about the battles of rohan,those that were not in the movies
@Men of the West can you please do a video of the grey havens I would love to do know more about it
Ah the Wainriders, they learned the same lesson the Orcs did, don't mess with the Dwarves!
In which part of Canon Middle Earth did the dwarves get to battle the Wainriders? I don´t remember any of it...
Fernando García Orza If I remember right it is mentioned in the appendix’s to the lord of the rings but I’m fairly certain I read it on The Encyclopedia of Arda. They would have the actual link to where Tolkien himself wrote it.
@hunter christensen Well I have to admit that I could have sworn I read it there, but I can not find it now myself. What I remember reading was that the Wainriders assaulted the Iron Hills, Once, and the dwarves drove them back rather handily. But like I said I can not find any mention of it now, so I guess either I remember wrong or it just isn't there, but I like to think thats how it would have happened if they ever did try to attack the dwarves.
Good video. Consistently sad we don't have that many about everyone from the East and the South as people, not just antagonists. There's so much there to explore that we'll never really know.
Great video.
I'd love a video on the De-peopling of Eriador in the 3rd Age. Its seemingly so desolate of settlement by the time of The Hobbit that it seems ironic that Tolkien called the lands east of the Misty Mountains Wilderland. If the House of Elrond was the last Homely House, I feel like it would be more so when travelling East to West as opposed to West to East. What do you think Yoysten? Also, when Aragorn re-establlishes Arnor, what people did he re-establish it with other than the Breelanders?
Thanks , interesting.
Great series! I wonder if there's any way to learn more about the peoples within Middle Earth that are less known, about their tradition, culture, habits etc.?
good video :D
Ur on d rite track wit Dis more PlZ. 🔥
Been here since 20K subscribers !
awesome video, as always .... could u a land of elves ? plz :)
Thanks for your amazing videos. Do you play Lotro?
Gondor, because of the Beacons!!!
Powerful message at the end there, Mellon!!!
Until...Oh Yes, My Suggested Video!!!
Sorry, Until The Children of Hurin...Marion Baggins Out!!!
Will you make a video covering the languages of Middle Earth? Though that would require a video for each separate one - e.g. Sindarin, Quenya and any other Elven not done together.
I LOVE Your commentaries and insights. But the battle at Helms Deep was called the Battle of the Hornburg
Eeek, love the video 💕 hope you're doing well
The speech in the end reminds me of the lyrics in Imagine.
How do you get all of these amazing images?
Could you do a video on the ruins one sees while watching the lord of the rings films? Mostly curious what you think of Ost-in-Edhil, which we might see on the road between Rivendel and the mountain pass of Caradhras.
Third?!
Am I noticed by HIM?
Would be cool if you also did a geography of Beleriand and Aman.
You should do one about elves and orcs in the third and early fourth age.
Hey you should do the staffs of the wizards for an artifact spotlight
Are their any more settlements in rhovanion, are any of the old principalities still around?
I actually think Men are one of the most interesting races in Middle-Earth simply for their variety - unlike the other races, they don't fit into any single category (or it could be said that they fit into every category.) Never a dull moment with 'em. Love the video!
Riders of Rohan! Oaths you have taken!
I agreewith you and suspect Utummno was just east of the Helcaraxe exit
what can you tell about the clansmen of lamedon i learned about them from games workshop but i cannot seem to find anything . They seem to have a similar trait as highlanders , and if not mistaken they live near the mountains of Rohan
Can you make a Q and A like:What is your favourite faction and something like that.
