Lebennin

Lebennin was a region and fiefdom in southern Gondor.
== Description ==
Known sometimes in full as Fair Lebennin of the Five Streams, referring to the Five Rivers of Lebennin, Lebennin was known as one of the most faithful fiefs of Gondor, and one of its provinces. It was a wide green land that lay between the rivers Gilrain and Anduin and the lower reaches of Erui. The Anduin delta lay to the South and the White Mountains lay to the North. Pelargir was it's chief city. Linhir was another town or city within it, above the mouth of the Gilrain.
Lebennin was largely populated by Men of mixed blood, as many Men of Lebennin traced their ancestry to the forgotten 'Men of the Mountains' that had been displaced from the White Mountains by the Númenóreans.
== History ==
Lebennin was settled by the Faithful Númenóreans in the Second Age. Following the founding of Gondor the region became a core part of the Kingdom. During the Kin-strife the decisive Battle of the Crossings of Erui was fought in Lebennin.
During the War of the Ring, Lebennin was under attack by the Corsairs of Umbar, and so could not send many men to the aid of Minas Tirith. Angbor of Lamedon led a force defending Linhir from the Corsairs and he (and Lebennin itself) was rescued by Aragorn and his Army of the Dead, spirits of the Oathbreakers of Dunharrow.
