  Harondor   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Harondor was the Southern most lying province of Gondor in the noontide of the realm save the coastlands around Umbar in Third age ca.750 during King Falastur, Eärnil I., Ciryandil, Hyarmendacil I., Atanatar II., to Third age ca 1300.
The boundry of Harondor was in the North river Poros and in the South river Harnen into Haradwaith, in the East was Ephel Dúath and Lostladen and West was the Bay of Belfalas.
Harondor was lost to the people of Haradwaith and descendants of the King in Umbar during and after the Kinstrife of Gondor through the years of the Third age 1400 - 1650 and due to the great plague diminishing the strength of Gondor but Gondor has never resigned the claim of the lordship of Harondor.

 Council of Elrond :: Lord of the Rings News and Information
Harondor became Gondor's southernmost province in the year 830 of the Third Age in the reign of Falastur, the first of the Ship-kings.
It remained part of Gondor until 1856 of the Third age when all of Gondor east of the Anduin was lost in the wars with the Wainriders.
Finally, after forces issuing from Mordor attacked Gondor in 2000 and captured Minas Ithil in 2002, Harondor and all the rest of Gondor's territory east of the Anduin, although still claimed by Gondor, were abandoned by all but bands of solders.

 Harondor
Ethnically I would imagine Harondor had the normal Gondorian mix of Dunedain  and natives, but whereas the native folk of the realm were heavily Dunlending, in Harondor they would have been predominantly from Harad, the Anduin acting as a natural barrier to the heavy settlement of this region by northerners.
Harondor had been incorporated into the realm at the latest by the end of the reign of  King Hyarmendacil (1015-1149 T.A), under whom the extent of Gondor’s territory reached its apex.
The peril was especially felt in Harondor because of the proximity of Umbar.

Harondor lay outside the bounds of the realm until sometime after 850 T.A, though settlements may have been established along its northern river and coastal edges before this time.

The place is Harondor, a small under-developed country south of Gondor, north of Umbar.
These exiles became known as the ‘Corsairs of Umbar’ because of the naval might, and continued to plague Gondor until their ultimate destruction in the War of the Ring 1500 years later.
The Story – Nobles within Gondor supported a rebellion of Lords of Harondor to overthrow their Corsair overlords, without the support of the Gondorian King Tarendor, whose main attention is eastward.

 Harad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Far Harad lived the gigantic mammoth-like animals known as Oliphaunts, which were used by the Haradrim as moving war towers.
Near Harad later formed an alliance - or maybe even a coalition of some sort - with the Corsairs of Umbar, and was involved in a series of continual battles with Gondor over South Gondor or Harondor.
Anciently its northern border was held to be the river Harnen, but by the time of the War of the Ring all the land south of the river Poros was under the influence of the Haradrim.

 The Guild Companion: Elves
Some players have commented that Elf-Lords are particularly effective hazard creatures against minion decks, so much so that you have to avoid building decks that go through shadow lands unless you are using a Doors of Night hazard strategy.
The idea of the deck is to have 2 small companies moving around the South (Harondor, Nurn, Khand) collecting factions and weapons.
The hazard strategy is a mixed bag, with agents used to hunt down hero companies and attack them.

It is not easy to estimate the amount of timber contributed by the forests of would-be Harondor during the Great Armament (SA 3310-3319), but Ar-Pharazôn's fleet-building program must have used an incredible quantity of wood and could not feasibly have been realized with timber from the forests of Númenor alone.
Harondor, being part of the "hinterland" of Umbar, as well as of Pelargir, would have been a natural choice for cutting timber in a big way.
The rainfall Harondor is likely to get from its geographical position probably would not be evenly distributed over the year; instead, most of it would come down during the winter-months as strong downpours, frequently even as torrential rainstorms.

At that time, all the lands between the Nen Belfalas and the Hyarmentië north of the Rath Annûn and south of the Harnen were also controlled by Gondor and were administered in Umbar by the Gondor's Captain of the Haven.

Any creature that can be keyed to a Shadow-land may be keyed to Ithilien, Harondor, Horse Plains, Khand, Imlad Morgul, Nurn, Gorgoroth, Udun, or Dagorlad.
Most creatures keyable to shadow- lands are not keyable to wilderness (particularly the good orcs, trolls, and undead), so this card can be slightly useful by attacking in Ithilien and Harondor.
However, chances are pretty good that if they are going to either of those places they will also go through Dagorlad or Khand, which are both shadow-lands.
