 Rohan, A.D. 2954 Summer
King Thengel The Kingdom of Rohan was established in the Third Age, when the cavalry forces of the Kingdom of Rhovanion were destroyed by Easterlings and forced to flee beyond Greenwood the Great. These Horse People of Northmen called themselves Éothéod. They settled for some time to the north of the Anduin. In time Cirion, Steward of Gondor, called upon these descendants of Rhovanion, old allies of Gondor, for aid against the Balchoth.Thus in 2510 of the Third Age, the Éothéod King Eorl the Young led his horsemen in the Battle of the Field of Celebrant, and after defeating the enemy Cirion asked the Éothéod to watch over the depopulated province of Calenardhon. The Éothéod henceforth called themselves Eorlingas or "followers of Eorl", but in Sindarin they became known as the Rohirrim, or Horse-lords, and their country became known as Rohan, the Riddermark.Eorl, first King of the Mark built his capital at Aldburg in the Folde. It was Rohan's second King, Brego son of Eorl, who then established a stronghold on the green hill of Edoras at the foot of the White Mountains in the south of the Mark. At its heart stands Meduseld, the Golden Hall.During the time of king Helm Hammerhand around 2750, men from Dunland in the north had become hateful of the new settlers at their southern borders, who had driven them to poor lands in the hills. Now the Dunlendings came against Rohan in force under Freca and Wulf, besieging Edoras twice in four years. Pirates from Umbar were raiding Gondor and so it was unable to aid its ally in the north. The Rohirrim were forced to retreat to the fortresses of the Hornburg and Dunharrow.During the desperate fighting over a long winter King Helm was slain and all his sons, thus a new line of Rohirrim kings was born in Helm’s nephew – Frealaf Hildeson. Gondor eventually arrived in the spring and liberated the Riddermark from the Dunlendings.For a time there was peace by since Saruman has settled in Isengard the folk have begun to wonder whether the terrifying wizard has had some hand in the woes that have beset the Riddermark. Dunlendings stir once more and strange creatures raiding the outer hamlets in the north have been seen bearing the dreaded White Hand of the wizard himself.
