Lord of the Rings: Complete History of the Third Age

Which part is the hobbit movie?

Orc: Great news my lord, we killed Isildur for you

Sauron: Wow thanks I've be- Where's my Ring?

Orc: What Ring?

Sauron: My Ring! The one I used to take over Middle-Earth with! Don't tell me you forgot my Ring!

Orc: But you didn't say any-

Sauron: How am I supposed to conquer Middle-Earth without my Ring?!

Watching all these videos. Lots of plot holes. Makes you 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Can anyone answer this for me: if the Holy Ones including Sauron was born from the Flame Imperishable, and their power is finite. How was Sauron able to regain his strength during the Third Age?

Crazy how much lore there is and I still want more

Man, Morgoth and Sauron must be the most inept god-like military leader in fantasy.

Yo wtf are these names my guy lol

Just wanted to point out you forgot about how commander galadriel single handedly took down Sauron along with queen regent muriel.

50 mins

This gentle parenting is the reason why children are so shitty, It teaches that you can pretty much get away with anything without consequences and that’s why all these kids are growing up so shitty and are pretty much a lost cause

Is it just me, or are the dunlendings the most annoying civilization in middle earth? LOL

1st and 2nd age are paced so well. Then humans just push that pace so fast. Makes sense with the shorter lifespans.

Me: Who could possibly keep what should surely be not much more than a cold reading of dry history stats engaging for well over an hour?! Hah yeah right
An hour later ... Man I didn't know that either! How interesting, indeed.
This guy is good. Just enough added context and details while also a brisk pace. Perfect mix.

Damn gondorian kings suck in battle they all die In war

This is probably the longest CivilizationEx video ever made.

All this from the mind of one man.

wait so Saruman didn't actually die at Isengard impaled at a wheel after falling off the tower??

A humble and independent spirit: Gandalf in a nutshell LOL

Has he done a history on the war of Angmar?

Amazing work!

Love how you tell the story of the books but use the designs from the movies (where you can). I don’t think anybody could imagine the characters looking any different from how they looked in the movies.

i know absolutely nothing about the lotr universe besides the movies so i’m just watching these videos in utter confusion. every so often ill hear a name i know and i’ll just perk up like
isildur? isildur? i know him! i know things!
it’s kind of pathetic lmao but i’m having fun

One of the best connections I've found in LOTR is the Phial of Galadriel. Back in the Years of the Trees of Arda, light was brought to the world through the Two Trees of Valinor. The elf, Feanor, is in awe of the beauty of Galadriel's gold-silver hair and asks 3 times for a single strand and each time she declines. Inspired by her hair, Feanor created 3 amazingly beautiful gems called the Silmarils that captured the light of the trees of Valinor. Afterwards, Melkor allies with Ungoliant, a primordial being that took the shape of a giant spider, and uses her to poison and destroy the Two Trees of Valinor and their last flower and fruit become the Sun and the Moon. As for the Silmarils, one ends up in the sea, and one ends up in the earth. But the last one ends up with Earendil, Elronds father. He places the Silmaril upon his forehead and uses it as a guide back to Valinor, where the Valar set the Silmaril as a star in the sky.

Fast forward 6000 years to the Third Age, and Frodo is given the Phial of Galadriel, containing the Light of Earendil, their most beloved star. In essence, Galadriel has basically just given Frodo one of the Silmarils. It seems fitting that not only does Frodo receive this gift from Galadriel herself, the inspiration for the creation of the Silmarils, but also that he uses it against Shelob who is the offspring of Ungoliant, who destroyed the Light in the Trees that the Silmaril captured.

What an absolutely amazing reference that only a small portion of people familiar with the lore will realize.

And as an added bonus, Feanor originally asked Galadriel 3 times for a single strand of her hair, but refused sensing the darkness in him. Yet when Gimli asks for the same gift, she gives him 3 strands. This is why her gift to Gimli is so awesome, because of the implications behind it, and the backstory that only a select few will understand.

Who's to say this isn't true and Tolkien was granted the wisdom of story telling to reveal what happens years before our time. I personally believe Tolkien might have been onto something or is that just me hoping this world to be true as an escape from our terrible lives 😂

Fantastic work!

Great work! Very comprehensive and detailed! Your videos are exactly what I was looking for :)

Third Age Movies:
•The Hobbit Trilogy (2012-2014)
•The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (2001-2003)

I already commented like three times but they all look like herobrine

Can you do a wizarding world timeline please i would really like to see it

Of the 14 from the hobbit balin is my fave of the fellowship my fav is aragorn or frodo

Yes the witch king will not be killed by man he will be killed by spoiler alert*





EOWYN!!!!!!!

do u think tthey will make a fourth age?

Damn third age has 1.30 hours of content?

How cool would it be to have a game fully open world with all of this world's lands, you play as a immortal being of some kind and get to play through all the ages

Your pronunciation of the languages of Arda is really good

Would you ever do a video on the Bible? Huge fan, thanks!

What happened to Moria, Khand, Harand and Sean of Rhun? Were they freed from evil men and orcs? Did dwarfs settle in Moria after death of Balrog?

To be honest our evolutionary history from our many extinction level disasters through out Earth’s history, to our revival and success is also very interesting and probably a bigger story than anything we could ever write, every time we find new discoveries it’s amazing how it connects to our lives and how we got here as a biological life form, now with consciousness to think, in a hostile Universe of “darkness”
It just writes itself 🤯

any esoteric nerds out there seeing many parallels?

The offbeat platinum coronally use because connection conversely hate atop a peaceful gum. melted, dangerous punishment

The voiceless chronometer terminally pack because insulation gully mourn before a annoying guilty. jaded, pink mechanic

This is an incredible amount of work. Thank you!

"You killed Isildur? Great! Where's the ring?" Orcs: "What Ring?" 🤦‍♂️

should've ended the video with "and thus began the Fourth age of Men"
