Dominion of Men

The Dominion of Men is a period in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium that follows the events of The Lord of the Rings and the Third Age.

The last installment of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King, chronicles the End of the Third Age of Middle-earth, and the destruction of the One Ring. With Sauron defeated, and the coming of the Fourth Age, many things of the Elder Days faded from the world or passed into the west, bringing about the "Dominion of Men." After the Battle at the Black Gates and the victory of the Captains of the West, Gandalf says to Aragorn:

The Fourth Age was held to have begun with the passing of the Ring-bearers over the sea from Mithlond on 29 September 3021 3A (though in Gondor it was reckoned as beginning on 25 March of the same year (the second anniversary of the Downfall of Barad-dûr).

This is the last of the four Ages chronicled by Tolkien, and the one about which least is known (including its length). However, through notes and letters of Tolkien, a great deal of it published posthumously by his son Christopher Tolkien, as well as in passages from the Annals of the Kings and Rulers (An appendix of The Return of the King) and other portions of The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion, some events can be defined.

Under the long rule of Aragorn, Gondor prospered. The North Kingdom was reinstated, and united once again with South Kingdom to form a Restored Kingdom of Men. Though peace and freedom had returned to the Westlands, evils still survived the Fall of Sauron in the east, and Aragorn rode out with King Éomer of Rohan to face them in battle. Arwen bore him a son and heir, Eldarion, as well as at least two daughters.
