Region in the far northwest of Middle Earth in the First Age. Its history is recounted in Tolkien's epic work "The Silmarillion". Being the closest region to Valinor, this was the region peopled by elves who returned from Valinor or who didn't quite reach it; it is also the nearest region to Morgoth's fortress at Angband. The Wars of Beleriand - including five major battles and innumerable skirmishes - and the tales of Beren and Luthien, Turin and Nienor, and Tuor and Idril all take place in the setting of Beleriand.
The realms of Beleriand include Doriath, Nargothrond, Gondolin, Thargelion, Ossiriand, Himring,Falas, Mithrim, Dor-lomin and Dorthonion.
Beleriand is destroyed at the end of the Silmarillion in a massive battle in which the forces of Valinor join those of the elves of Beleriand in finally destroying Morgoth's forces; the realm is destroyed in the conflict and sinks into the sea (except Himling Island and Tol Fuin, which appear on later maps).

The Noldor returned to Beleriand after the tragic events of the Kinslaying, whereas the Sindar remained in Beleriand all along.
Of all the battles of Beleriand, Nirnaeth Arnoediad, the Battle of Unnumbered Tears, was the most disastrous for the elves.

Member of the coolest ever religious heresy who basically believed in situationism, who got burned at the stake and who we only know about through some really messed-up church accusations (their own books were burned). In the Middle Ages, of course. It's a shame they aren't still around.
I wanted to put "Amaurian" as my religion on my census form, but my parents wouldn't let me.
I'm sorry, I can't go to work today. Or any day. Wage slavery is against my religion as an Amaurian.

huh huh.
homo erectus is a predecessor of modern humans. Members of this species had tools made of hard wood. They stored them inside orifices. And they spent most of their time impaling things with their long rods.
They used to grunt a lot, especially while impaling things. They drew graffiti on cave walls showing them trying to mount and stick their poles in horses and other animals.

Slang for the head of your penis. If you remove Darth Vader's helmet, then you are masturbating. If you find a place to put Darth Vader's helmet then you are having sex regularly.
- So what did you get up to last night then Steve?
- I removed Darth's Helmet
- Oh. So you were on your own then.
