Lebennin

Province of Gondor occupying the lands south of the White Mountains between the River Gilrain and the Anduin.

When the Numenorians first arrived and began settling in Lebennin in the Second Age they found it to be already inhabited. Interbreeding since that time resulted in a mixed people where the heritage of Numenor can be seen but where many of the citizens are still short and swarthy like the original inhabitants.

In the year 2350 of the Second Age Queen Tar-Vanimelde of Numenor founded the Haven of Pelargir in Lebennin above the mouths of the Anduin. Pelargir became the chief city of Lebennin and the main haven of the elf-friends or faithful of Numenor.

It was from Pelargir in Lebennin that Aragorn set sail in a captured Corsair fleet to come to the aid of Minas Tirith in the War of The Ring.
