 Rhovanion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Properly speaking Rhovanion was the name of a small region east of Greenwood, which later was the Kingdom of Rhovanion, but the name was used for all of Wilderland by the late Third Age.
In the later Third Age, Rhovanion was the site of many wars, when the Wainriders came from the east and assailed the people of Rhovanion until all their kingdoms were destroyed, and later when Sauron returned as the Necromancer he took residence at Dol Guldur in the south of Greenwood.
At the end of the Third Age, the Kingdoms of Erebor and Dale were restored as a result of the death of Smaug and the Battle of Five Armies, and Sauron was removed from Mirkwood by the wizard Gandalf.

The Northmen who dwellt in Greenwood the Great and other parts of Rhovanion were friendly to the Dúnedain and were after the Dúnedain the most noble Men on Arda, counted as Middle Men by the Dúnedain, and believed to have been descended from the same group of Men as the Edain, the Atanatári.
East of Greenwood the Great was the kingdom of Rhovanion, and this became the most important nation of the Northmen.
After the evil Kingdom of Angmar was defeated by Gondor and the remains of Arnor in 1977 T.A., these Northmen moved north and began to call themselves the Éothéod.

 How did Tolkien actually portray the Rohirrim?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The kingdom of Rhovanion rose in the area between Mirkwood and Celduin, and its first named ruler was Vidugavia, who allied himself with Gondor.
The Kingdom of Rhovanion is attested from the middle of the 13th century in the Third Age (Vidugavia's time) until the middle of the 19th century.
Unfinished Tales says the people of this kingdom were "a numerous and powerful confederation of peoples...great breeders of horses and riders renownded for their skill and endurance, though their settled homes were in the eaves of the Forest...." The Great Plague of 1636 killed more than half the Northmen of Rhovanion and initiated their decline.

Not only that, but the first map on p59 clearly shows the Kingdom of Rhovanion without the territories that Gondor supposedly ceded, and that it was Gondor that lost south Rhovanion.
The Kingdom of Rhovanion went into decline after the defeat of the Wainriders, and many of its folk settled in Gondor.
Now, checking Unfinished Tales, I found 'Vidugavia (sp.) king of Rhovanion' meantioned - but he wasn't the King of all Rhovanion, and his kingdom wasn't called Rhovanion; he was the King of the north people, future Rohirrim IIRC.

During the Third Age Minalcar, Regent of Gondor, sent his son Valacar to seal an alliance with the northman kingdom of Rhovanion (which was just a small kingdom east of Mirkwood, and did not cover all of Wilderland, which is also called Rhovanion).
Their son, Eldacar, was born in Rhovanion and named Vinitharya in his early childhood.
Hobbits also had their tragic marriages, although the tragedy was not always realized in strife between the husband and wife, and never led to a terrible consequence like the Kin-strife of Gondor.

Thus the effective dominion of the Reunited Kingdom came to Rhovanion and the borders of Forodwaith.
But the Household of the Telcontari was ever ennobled by an Elven spouse for the King and their lives were lengthened, until Elessar II married Léofhild (1354-1426), heir of the Kingdom of Rohan.
For example, the division of the Reunited Kingdom because of a state of "unrest" recalls too closely, in my opinion, the division of Arnor, though the North-South division would be a tendency marked by geography.

 Dragons (again) - THE TOLKIEN FORUM
Fram was of the Eotheod who had moved to the Northern Valley's of Greylin and Langwell in 1977 T.A and Dwarves Moved to Grey Mountains in 2210 T.A. So I don't think there was a lot of time for the Eotheod and the Dwarves to establish pally ties.
Besides The Eotheod were basically people belonging to Kingdom of Rhovanion which say South and East of Mirkwood and there they would have compartively less contact with the Dwarves compared to those people living In the Northern Eaves of Mirkwood.
I would've though someone would have remebered their long-standing alliance and reverence which may have continued in the T.A, for a while, though the Mannish tribes of Rhovanion were scattered by Easterlings in the War between Sauron and the Elves.
