Gondor was the most prominent kingdom of Men in Middle-earth‚ bordered by Rohan to the north‚ Harad to the south‚ the Cape of Andrast and the Sea to the west‚ and Mordor to the east. Its first capital was Osgiliath‚ moved to Minas Anor in TA 1640. This city‚ later renamed Minas Tirith‚ remained the capital of Gondor for the rest of the Third Age and into the Fourth Age; other major fortresses included Pelargir‚ Dol Amroth in Belfalas and Minas Ithil.
Gondor was founded by the brothers Isildur and Anárion‚ exiles from Númenor. Gondor was the sister kingdom of Arnor‚ whose line of kings came from Isildur‚ while the line of the Kings of Gondor descended from Anárion. Gondor was at the height of its power in its early years due to the ships and the military might that its armies possessed. However‚ continued attacks by allies of Sauron‚ civil war‚ and a devastating plague caused it to gradually decline over the course of the Third Age until Sauron's final defeat and the Crowning of King Elessar. Following that time the power of Gondor once again expanded‚ and the former lands of Arnor were united with it under the banner of the Reunited Kingdom.
In all‚ there were thirty-one Kings of Gondor after Anárion‚ who was slain in the War of the Last Alliance at the Siege of Barad-dûr.
