SA 1 - FA 1
This list represents armies of various Elven Kingdoms led by the Noldor during the Second and Third Ages, including Imladris, Lindon, Eregion under Celebrimbor, and the forces of the Last Alliance under Gil-gilad. Most of their population was Sylvan elves, but they were the most powerful Eldar powers in that period, and still had significant numbers of Noldorin, although gradually dwindling through the Third Age.
Celebrimbor settled in Eregion (also called Hollin) early in the Second Age; he was slain after Eregion’s destruction in the War of the Elves and Sauron, SA 1697.
