Minhiriath - The Empty Land @DarthGandalfYT

Uploaded December 2024 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago

In this video, we look at Minhiriath, a large region in southern Eriador. We look at how it went from a forested land, to a part of Cardolan that was home to many people, to an empty wilderness at the end of the Third Age.
