King Aragorn II Elessar, crowned
King of Gondor was the hereditary title of a ruler of Gondor, the southern kingdom of the Dúnedain in Middle-earth.
History[]
Through Amandil, the kings claimed descent from the Lords of Andúnië, and from there to the Princess Silmariën and the Kings of Númenor. Elendil, the son of Amandil, was the first King of Arnor and was succeeded by Isildur. Elendil ruled over both Realms in Exile as the High King of the Dúnedain. Isildur succeeded him as High King upon his father's death. Isildur committed Gondor to the rule of his nephew Meneldil, son of his brother Anárion, from whom the next thirty one kings would descend. However Isildur was by right High King over both Arnor and Gondor, though after Isildur's death his son Valandil did not press the claim, so thereafter the realms were entirely split. Thus, the House of Isildur ruled Arnor and the House of Anárion ruled Gondor.
In TA 2050 King Eärnur rode to Minas Morgul and was never seen again, and the Kingdom of Gondor was ruled by twenty six Stewards until the restoration of the line of Kings through the Heir of Isildur, King Elessar Telcontar, the first High King of the Reunited Kingdom of Arnor and Gondor.
