Description Tolkien's Imagined Prehistory.svg |
English:
Tolkien's imagined prehistory of the Earth, where in ages past Elves, Dwarves and Ents lived. With each successive age, more of the original created perfection falls and fades. By the end of the Third Age and the War of the Ring, the Elves, Dwarves, Ents and other races are in the last stages of decline. With the destruction of the Ring, Sauron's evil is banished, and his Nazgul, Trolls, and Orcs are destroyed or scattered. In the
Fourth and later ages
