Introduction

Affectionally know as Lords and known to many historions as Rohan, The Constitutional Monarchy of The Horse Lords is a parliamentary republic/monarchy in the exotic land of Hyrule with many, many miles of vast, endless plains where farming is becoming more and more common. The Horse Lords were named after the people's extreme love of horses and horse riding and their excellently trained calvery, called the Riders of Rohan Calvery Division.

Concerning the Map

To the south of Lords lie the White mountains, which now are quite worn down by weathering. To the northwest is the southern tip of the Misty Mountains. The plains in between was called the Gap of Rohan in ancient times. Jutting into the nortern part of the country is a deep forest called Fangorn, which is rarely entered do to several reports of campers getting mysteriously lost and the eerie groans and thumps that can be heard coming from deep inside the woods. To the east is a large river, called the the Great River. Flowing through the heart of Lords and into the Great River (known to historions and Anduin) at the mouths of Entwash are the Entwash and Eastfold Rivers To the west is where the Isen and Adorn rivers meet. In between the two rivers is a plain called West-march.

Concerning the Flag

The flag of Lords depicts the most majestic and powerful of all of Lord' horse, Shadowfax (more information below) and a rising sun from the east. The oldest flag found in Lords was one from the Battle of Helm's Deep. It was pretty much the same as it is now, except for the designs on the side. Standards depicting Shadowfax, the national symbol, can be found all over modern-day Horse Lords.

Other National Symbols

The national animal of Lords is the stallion, the national drink is the Deep Stout (named after the drinking celebration that was held after a famous battle) and the national dish is the Half-Elven Lamb Sandwich, which is sauced lamb in between ancient Elven Bread and whole grain bread from Lords' fields.

Concerning the History of the Horse Lords

The history of the Horse Lords is a very long, confusing tale. The early parts of the history are mainly just myth, legend and folklore. This is because they are mainly based on lore from the ancient Library of Rohir Lore (which will be described later on in this article).
