In the Battle of the Five Armies, Dain leads his dwarves out of the Iron Hills to help Thorin and Co.

5. What is the white city of Gondor?

Answer: Minas Tirith

Seven walls round the white city, and on the battlements, flags of black and silver. Used to be called Minas Anor, this was changed when Minas Ithil was taken by the Ringwraiths and made into a dark tower. Minas Tirith is named for the same tower that stood in Beleriand that guarded the Pass of Sirion.

6. The lands to the South of Gondor are known as:

Answer: Harad

Aragorn is reputed to have travelled in Harad, where "the stars are different". The men of these lands were always allied with Sauron, and harboured a hatred towards Gondor.

7. What's the true name of "The Great River" that flows into the sea in the south of Gondor?

Answer: Anduin

The Anduin flows East of the Misty Mountains and recieves all of the water from the rivers in the East. Ot flows into the Great Sea in the Bay of Belfalas.

8. Which of the following is not a port on the sea?

Answer: Edoras

Alas Rohan is landlocked. Mithlond is the other name for the Grey Havens, Dol Amroth is in Gondor on the sea, and Pelargir is where the Anduin flows into the sea.

9. What is the northernmost mountain peak of the Misty Mountains?

Answer: Mount Gundabad

Morgoth made a fortress at Carn D�m, at the westernmost point of the Mountains of Angmar, and it became his capital and was one of the feared places in the Middle Earth. It was occupied by the witch-king, later to become Lord of the Nazg�l. It was west-northwest of Mount Gundabad, which was the northernmost peak of the Misty Mountains.

They stretched all the way south to Methedras in the south, which was just north-northwest of Isengard.

10. The land to the West of the Ered Luin, where Gil-Galad and his exiles made a home after it sank partly under the sea, is called?

Answer: Lindon

Morgoth was loath to cross the Ered Luin, because of the strength and splendor of Gil-Galad and his elves. But after the War of Wrath, parts of Lindon sunk under the water. Lindon means in Quenya "land of the singers" and was all that remained of the peninsula of Ossiriand after the War of Wrath when most of the land of the seven rivers sunk into the sea.
