mrtn said:Teabeard, you've misunderstood, the Ents won't be a civ. Check PCH's post #159 for the civs. Hopefully he can update that list with the newly made city lists.![]()
You're thinking of either Olog-hai, a race of trolls bread by Sauron for the War of the Ring, or of Oghor-hai, the Orcs' name for the Woses/Drúedain.Hamah said:1- I see some people write Orog-hai for the orcs. I think the orcs of the white hand were called Uruk-hai.
Close, but no fish - the Gondolindrim were the people of Gondolin.3- I think people of Gondor were called Gondolindrim.
Whoops, I guess not. I guess start with page eight and then follow the thread to keep abreast of things. (I wouldn't wish any more work on PCH to have to keep that list updated. Heck, if sosco wanted, he could post a new list based on his research!sosco said:Mithadan, a question! The list on page 8., is it regulary updated. I mean, are there only three lists done ( and Mordor )???
If the Dwarves arent taken yet I'll do it...

The Last Conformist said:"City of the Corsairs" would surely be an alternative name of Umbar itself?
Rhûn is simply Sindarin for "the East", and surely should go to the Easterlings.
Between Rhûn and the Harad we find the country of Khand. It's, to the best of my knowledge, only mentioned twice in the canon; once as the homeland of axemen in Mordor's service during the War of the Ring (known as "Variags" - very similar to Slavic varyag "Varangian"), and once, centuries earlier, as the victim of aggression by the Wainraiders of Rhûn. Could be pressganged as an Easterling city.
