	Gondor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Before the Downfall of N�menor, Gondor was home to many N�men�rean colonists, who either mixed blood with the indigenous Middle Men if they were friendly, or dispersed them into Ras Morthil,
		Gondor, at a latitude comparable to Venice, was a more fertile region than Arnor to the north, and therefore it already had a larger population before the ships of Elendil's sons arrived.
		Its name means "Land of Stone", from Sindarin gond (stone) + (n)dor (land), most likely given to it because of the Ered Nimrais and other mountain chains in the land.

	Ras Makonnen: Yilma and Teferi
		Such was the nature of the relationship between Makonnen’s two sons, Yilma and Teferi, where, even today, zealous supporters of the latter and those who think that they can profit by revising history, continue the unjust treatment of Dejazmatch Yilma Makonnen, the eldest son of Ras Makonnen Wolde Michael.
		At this point, Marcus wrote " Nurturing was left to Ras Makonnen, who arranged to have Teferi raised with his second cousin Imiru, also born in 1892." During this period in their lives, there is no evidence to suggest that Yilma and Teferi had interacted with one another.
		Marcus wrote “So smitten was Makonnen that he divorced his common-law wife, the mother of Haile Selassie’s half brother, Yilma, and married Yeshimebet in 1876.” Makonnen’s union with his second wife, led to the birth of his second son, Teferi Makonnen.

		Makonnen slammed the rest of the fruit to the ground in revulsion and spat again, rubbing the inside of his mouth with his cloak.
