Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king"
Sons of Gondor, of Rohan!
my brothers!
I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me!
The day may come when the courage of men fails!
When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship!
But it is not this day!
This day we fight!
By all you hold dear on this good Earth!
I bid you stand!
Men of the West!
For Frodo.
Sons of Gondor, of Rohan!
my brothers!
The day may come when we fight!
But it is not this day!
This day we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship!
DEATH!!!!!!!!!
Gimli : Are i think you have that the wrong way around Aragon
Fucking hell this makes me emotional. Doesn't matter how many times I see it.
FOR THE WEST
"I would have followed you, my brother... my captain... my king."
"Be at peace, Son of Gondor."
I’ve always the thought of a soldier retreating in battle only to look and see the White Tree and as the world burns around him he picks up his sword and fights for Gondor
Now come the days of the King. May they be blessed
-Gandalf the WHiTE
Well now we need a video for Rohan.....
this one was quite sound, it skipped over bits here and there, but as a superficial work in a single video it was very good, which is what this channel does.
sakor88 i have the same meaning on this video
sakor88 a full history of Gondor would take at least 3 hours
@sakor88 cry
@sakor88 not surprising to see, you haven't matured over the past three years.
WHERE WAS GONDOR WHEN THE WESTFOLD FELL??!!
Fighting a damn war Théoden! Also Rohan and Gondor were never bitter towards each other in the books. You'd be hard pressed to find two countries that likes each other more.
Or when our enemies closed in around us?????
in las vegas
Where was Gondor when Westeros fe...oh wait.
In Gondor.
"Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come.
In this place I will abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world.'"
just a note, Elendil did not land in Gondor, although Aragorn repeated the words when he became king.
Gondor! Gondor, between the Mountains and the Sea!
West Wind blew there; the light upon the Silver Tree
Fell like bright rain in gardens of the Kings of old.
O proud walls! White towers! O wingéd crown and throne of gold!
O Gondor, Gondor! Shall Men behold the Silver Tree,
Or West Wind blow again between the Mountains and the Sea?
Im so glad someone didn't forget Arnor! Could you do the Kingdom of Arnor (and its successor states) next? It has an interesting history
I would love to see you guys talk about more Lord of the Rings on this channel. I highly recommend the book _The_ _Lord_ _of_ _the_ _Rings_ : _Weapons_ _and_ _Warfare_ as a source as it contains a lot of in-depth details on the weaponry, important figures, battle tactics, and history within the films.
Grand Admiral Thrawn I Highly Recommend the book "The Lord of the Rings", should start by reading the actual material, and not bother with uncanon reference materials.
Hail, Denethor, son of Ecthelion, Lord and Steward of Gondor.
A Random Crusader You mean the guy that swan dived off of Minas Tirith while on fire. Yeah... he's worthy of praise.
Darth Fenrir489
I'm quoting Gandalf, these words are not my own.
Hail ,denethor , father of one favoured son and father of dome unworthy boy who left osgiliath to orcs
"Do you sing, Little Hobbit?"
@@darthfenrir4892
Denethor was a good ruler earlier in life.
He organized the defense of Gondor, keeping Mordor from overwhelming them, resisted the will of Sauron as he used Minas Tirith's palantir to spy on Mordor.
The Denethor we meet has lost his son and heir, paranoid from the slow damage Sauron was able to inflict, and seeing his life's work and people suffer.
Its a wonder he didn't go insane earlier.
Forth, and fear no darkness! Arise, arise Riders of Théoden!
Spears shall be shaken, Shields shall be splintered, a sword-day, a red day ere the sun rises!
Ride now! Ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending!
Death! Death!
DEEAAATH!
Forth Eorlingas!
This is a fantastic channel. I’m EXTREMELY impressed with how accurate and in depth this video is. Job well done!!
thank ya kindly!
THEY TOOK HOBBITS TO ISENGARD
What did you say!?
THEY TOOK THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD
Tell me where is Gandalf
For I much desire to speak with him.
AND MY AXE
YOUR A WIZARD HARRY!
2:02 Wow, I've never heard Sauron described as a malevolent entity before, but that is certainly the best way to describe him. Anyhow, great video as always!
Hold your ground, hold your ground! Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me.
A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day.
An hour of wolves and shattered shields, when the age of men comes crashing down! But it is not this day!
This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you *stand, Men of the West!*
Excellent video! I'm a massive Tolkien fan so seeing this just brings me joy! Slight nitpick, Dwarves were also a part of the Last alliance as well as Men and Elves.
yes! yes! and YES! you have done such a good job in telling Gondors history. I hope to see more about the great and detailed world Tolkien has built. I love all of your content and hope you both continue your great work!
"my friends , you bow to no one."
me holding back tears " god damn it"
I'm impressed how in-depth this went Lore-wise. Mentions of the original names of the cities and of Earnur's death by the Witch-King. It's some good shit.
they barely touched the lore
Also for a future video I suggest either the Earth Federation or the Principality of Zeon/Neo Zeon from Gundam U.C.
Love this synopsis, very well presented! It's so much fun how it's presented like a straight mini-documentary.
As much as I loved the movies who else is still bummed all these years later that they portrayed gondor weak as hell.
My god, did the gondorian soldiers EVER kill a enemy unit Minus faramirs rangers?
I'm a Roheran all the way but i could not agree more. In reality they would have been far more of a force to recon with than what the movies show us.
TheIcelandicPrincess
The rangers where more or less mostly Dunedain.
The normal soldiers seemed like rookies.
And no show of imrahil and the swan knights
A lot of orcs in a hail of arrows trying to bash down the gate.
We also see them kicking ass in Osgiliath before the retreat, and more orcs died in the inner city of Minis Tirith.
Damned pity that was.
Melissa
I agree with the gate BUT they were BEHIND a wall 😉👍
Funny thing is I like the fact they breached the city. Even though I prefer the battle in the book, that's one change I did like. I just wish no ghost army.
Also gandalf had to tell the PROFESSIONAL soldiers to shoot at the trolls not the towers. I mean did they graduate at the stormtrooper school of soldiering lol
As for osgiliath, im pretty sure again it was faramirs rangers doing most of the killing.
If you haven't already you should read the book version of the battle or at least look it up. I wish we had that version
I'd really love if you could do the Empire of Orlais or the Tevinter Imperium from Dragon Age. I think they would make really interesting videos with all the lore encompassed.
I would have brought up the fact that (in the books), Aragorn finds a sapling of the White Tree and replaced the one in the courtyard when he ascended to the throne.
Fantastic video! Loved seeing the history of Gondor told so well. More please! More Lord of the rings/Tolkien stuff!!!
Do the Fire Nation or Earth Kingdom from Avatar next!
For Gondor!
God, how I love those books/movies...
“GLORY.... FOR GONDOR!!!!”
-Vinny vinesauce
2:46, no love for Durin's Folk? Everyone forgets the Dwarf Army at the battle.
No wonder the white tree isn't growing they've planted it in stone.
Could you make a video about the Great War between the Mede Empire and the Third Aldmeri Dominion? Keep up the great work.
I would love to see you guys do a video on some of the LOTRO factions and groups like the Dourhands and the Breeland Brigands.
You missed a few things. Like how the White Tree was removed, in honor, as Aragorn found a sapling in the mountain. Additionally, while in the movies there is fighting within the city, in the books only the gate is shattered before the Rohirrim arrive and only the Witch King manages to enter and then only briefly as the arrival of Rohan forces him away. Finally, Arvedui, last king of the North, attempted to claim the Kingship as his wife was the daughter of King Ondoher, but he and his descendants were discounted by the Stewards. Oh, and it wasn't Earnur II, it was Earnur. There was no other king named Earnur. And the Reunited Kingdom was said to retake all the lost territory of both Gondor and Arnor, but as the Reunited Kingdom is a successor state I guess it doesn't count.
The other thing you could have mentioned were the great works done by Gondor, such as Orthanc, the walls of Minas Tirith, and the Argonath.
"I always keep a promise. As king of Gondor, you are now freed."
another thing you overlooked, at the time of the last alliance, Khazad Dum was still in the hands of the Dwarves, under the kingship of Durin the Deathless
I'm impressed this video hasn't been taken down over copyright issues.
You know, I'd really like to see one of these focused on Angmar. I've heard many conflicting opinion's on what actually happened in the north to cause the fall of Arnor and would like some clarity on that issue.
Read the Return of the King's appendix. It's all there.
Grab the book, pick it up, and read the Appendix. It's all there.
sakor88 So what makes them inaccurate.
Roland Deschain, well this video alone mentions plate even though gondorians didn’t use plate in the book and only the Prince of Dol amroth used Partial plate.
sakor88 Sauron was cut down by Isildur, he cut off the ring. Gil-galad and Elendil were killed by Sauron. The Stewards said they would hold the throne until and heir was found tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Ruling_Stewards . Last two are movie bits not book bits so are inaccurate.
So good! I feel a marathon coming on!
does someone else draws pararells between Gondor and the Eastern Roman empire during the XV century? anyone, only me? ok
I would. But I'm what people call "Eastern European" so I might be biased. (Central Europe, people)
i guess my comparisson is validated by the fact that i'm Latino of western european ascendance
east did summon help from west event better known as first crusade
In Fiction it is usually the WEST that is good. Us Easterlings are bad, and my friend OP here is not even on the map ;) I'm of course mostly joking, but I do agree with OP that I see some parallels with Eastern Roman Empire. First Crusade was after the Great Schism. So it doesn't count. Especially since it was shown that Crusades went mostly after the wealth of Byzantine Empire than after fighting the "infidels".
that was later crusades first one they even gave bysantine some turf back
Fun fact; The seven stars on the sigil of Gondor represent the Sickle of the Valar- a constellation put in the northern sky of Arda by one of the gods (Varda), as a threat and sign of hope for the eventual defeat of all evil in Arda.
The stars represent the loyalty of Gondor to both the Noldor (elves) and Valar (gods).
they also represent the seven ships that the Faithful rode as their home was taken beneath the waves. It is some coincidence that it matches the stars of the High Elves. The White Tree and Seven Stars was the exclusive livery of the King and the Guards of the Fountain.
I love this channel, all your content is great, even when I'm not at all familiar with the topic of a post, keep making great ones as always!!
These videos make me so happy.
"You are soldiers of Gondor. Whatever comes through that gate, you will stand your ground"
-gandalf
Fun Fact: The army of orcs that besieged Minas Tirith in the movie consisted of 350.000 orcs (stated in the supplementary materials)
"So long as the men of the West, remain to defend it"
"The Lords of Gondor have returned"
Do the necrons from warhammer
hmm, a high production necrontyr video would be nice
Yes this is brilliant hopefully you do one on the children of hurin.
Excellent narration.
Been waiting for this one.
At the time of the War of the Ring Gondor had already been more or less constantly in war against the East for unbelievable 3000 years. Imagine what kind of special culture and no-bullshit life the Gondorians under Denethor II neccessary must have had in such a harsh reality.
Should have talked about how Aragorn reformed the kingdom of Arnor and united the two. Mention could have also been given to Dol Amroth as well as the giving of Isengard to Saruman. And the treaties made between the Reunited Kingdom and the disparate groups, such as the Dwarves, the men of Dale, and the Hobbits. And how all territories previously controlled by Gondor were reconquered under Aragorn's rule.
i never noticed that the tree was blooming again at the end of the movie!
I’d very much like to see the Kingdom of Rohan.
For sci-fi purposes, I’d like to see a fact file on the Atlantis Expedition or Destiny Expedition.
I feel the next logical thing to do is create a dossier for Talion of the Black Gate...
Noah Masi he isn’t cannon but that would be cool.
King Of Cringe The Institute explores alternate worlds, don’t they? Talion could simply exist in an alternate LotR universe.:)
We do not accept such heresy.
No single game has failed and ignored Tolkien More, to even give such a shameful display recognition is to shit upon a great work.
Black gate and Minas Ithil fell thousands of years before Lotr, mordor didn’t just appear one day.
The only thing that comes to mind when i hear anything regarding Gondor is: Gondor has no King! Before i forget, thanks for the upload. 👍
They never distroyed the wall of MinasTirith, only that of the Rammas Echor. Sauron's army dident even get inside the first wall expect on top of the wall. (Sorry bad English)
they destroyed the Great Gate with Grond the battering ram. The walls of Minas Tirith are made out of the same material as Orthanc, i.e invincible.
As GRRM put it "Wonder what was Aragorn's tax policy"
EdSkywalker
During the Fourth Age he led the Conquests of Umbar, and thusly would have raised taxes to pay for his army.
Never underestimate the Appendix's ability to answer questions you didn't even ask.
"Put aside the Ranger. Become who you were born to be"
Wow I love this channel! Lucky to have found it. I have a request.
Bungies Destiny universe is quite interesting, even though their game doesn't do a very good job of immersing us in the lore I think that if you would dig into the various factions and create a video out of that, that would be absolutely awesome.
Cheers!
You are soldiers of Gondor. No matter what comes through that gate, you will stand your ground!
*a column of Russian tanks rolls in*
*smiles like the Mouth of Sauron*
6:40 Technically it was Frodo and Gollum together as Frodo finally became corrupted by the ring and Gollum fought with him for it until Gollum finally fell in with the ring.
But hope is rising in the North. Rumours tell that a great weapon, one that could turn the tide of war has been rediscovered in the ruins of Arnor, and that a ranger, one who bears the blood of Kings, is resurfacing. The heir to the Steward has traveled to meet with the elves of the hidden valley Imladris, and the kingdom places their hopes in this man returning with something that can finally bring Sauron to his knees
FOR GONDOR!
The Interim Coalition of Governance in Stephen Baxter's Xeelee sequence would make for an outstanding video, I think. The deep lore for them is lacking, but their history and their millenia-long war against the Xeelee is extremely awesome.
You guys should do a video on Wellington Wells from "We Happy Few"
Very well done!
Just... Glorious!
I call the New Republic in Star Wars legends.
Kinda wish you collaborated with Men of the West/Yoysten (sp?) on this; he's one of the best LotR lore oriented channels out there and covers a LOT of the lesser known minutia from both the books and the movies.
Still, always glad to see more LotR related stuff on TH-cam!
if they did, many of the errors here would not be made.
Has Templin ever tackled the data and lore behind Farscape? Would love a Peacekeepers episode. Or dossier on Scorpious
Well, Earnur was The last King of Gondor, Earnil II was his father.
Illuvatar be praised another awesome video
thank you my child, and I'm undercover
The line of Kings ended with Earnur not Earnil when he foolishly accepted a duel by the Witch King.
God, I love this channel.
All your videos are great keep up the good work. I am truly a fan
from the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadow shall spring, renewed shall be blade that was broken the crownless again shall be king
loving the middle earth lore
Men of the West!!! Please cover the Elvish and Dwarvish kingdoms next.
Fantastic vid.
Okay, HOLY CRAP, these sound like legitimate history lessons.
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
Now I wanna watch the extended trilogy again.
You forgot shadow of Mordor when Gondor officially fell
because it is not canon, you idiot.
Please do videos on the kingdoms of the High Elves ( not those who smoke) and the dwarvish kingdoms.
Anyone else who read the books realize that the tree's last origin wasn't properly explained. Especially seeing as Aragorn finds the seeds for the last on on the way to Mordor's Black Gate...
Damn good work as always! You should do the UEO from SeaQuest! Please!!
Seven stars, and seven stones and one white tree
Witch King's Angmar next!
Eomer! Take your Eospear and lead your Eored down the Eoflank.
Eodeath! Eoforth Eorlingas!!
Good video. Use varied music in each video to express different emotions at different points.
Would you ever consider a video on the Dragonriders of Pern series? I'd say there's a lot of material to cover there.
I wish I had a tree like that in my backyard 😂😂😂
If possible, the Wizard's Council from Jim Butcher's Dresden Files
5:15 "They were trained and drilled to fight in close, well coordinated formations."
"Block formation!", anyone?
(There really weren't any cool or memorable voice lines for units in BfME2, were there?)
WHERE WAS GONDOR WHEN MY PANTS FELL?!?!
