This Map is HELL! | Of Beleriand | Episode 18

Location and placement were incredibly important to Tolkien--so important that an entire chapter of The Silmarillion is dedicated to who is where! While it can definitely feel like a geography lesson, hopefully our overview will help you remember just a little bit of it! If you're looking for some great maps, check out our map page at https://www.theonering.com/maps-of-middle-earth

And don't miss "If You Like Tolkien"! We learn just how much Michael REALLY gets into the spirit of the season!
