		East Beleriand, at its widest a hundred leagues from Sirion to Gelion and the borders of Ossiriand...
		The discrepancies in the width of Dorthonion and of West Beleriand are discussed by Christopher Tolkien in LR, where the earlier values are discounted as being ‘simple errors’.
		One possible explanation for the puzzling figure of 70 leagues given for West Beleriand ‘from river to sea’ is that the river in question is Narog, not Sirion — through some oversight, no doubt.

		To the west of Thangorodrim lay Hisilómë, the Land of Mist, for so it was named by the Noldor in their own tongue because of the clouds that Morgoth sent thither during their first encampment; Hithlum it became in the tongue of the Sindar that dwelt in those regions.

		In the darkness before the Sun and Moon, the Elves who dwelt under the starlit skies of Beleriand suffered a great calamity: Melkor, who had been taken as prisoner into the West thousands of years before, returned suddenly to the northern lands, and settled again in his fortress of Angband.
		To the Elves dwelling in Beleriand at the time, the coming of these princes must have seemed little short of miraculous, and indeed they were generally held to be emissaries of the Valar, sent to aid the Sindar and their allies against Morgoth's power.

		Two other armies had attacked Beleriand, and these one was destroyed by the Sindar of Doriath and Ossiriand while the other had driven Cirdan back to his two cities, Brithombar and Eglarest.
		In time the rift between the two groups was partially healed, and the Feanorians migrated to east Beleriand where they established the March of Maedhros, a large and powerful kingdom though its population would have consisted mostly of Sindar who accepted Maedhros as their lord.
		Finrod eventually extended his kingdom south to include much of west Beleriand, and his kingdom became the largest in all Beleriand.
