The Reunited Kingdom (also called the "Two Kingdoms") was a realm of Middle-earth consisting of Arnor (from older times) in the north and Gondor in the south.
History
Aragorn was the descendant of the Kings of Arnor and the Heir of Isildur and thus, when he became King of Gondor at the end of the War of the Ring he was crowned by right king of both Arnor and Gondor. Using the resources of the victorious Gondor, Aragorn took the royal name King Elessar, re-established and reunited the Two Kingdoms (Arnor had politically split from Gondor and ceased to be long ago), and rebuilt the ancient ruined cities of Arnor in Eriador. With the defeat of Sauron and Mordor, the reunited kingdom included all territories that originally belonged to both Arnor and Gondor at their greatest extents, excluding only Rohan and the Shire.

Reunited Kingdom military campaigns
Additionally, during the first century of the Fourth Age Aragorn led the armies of the Reunited Kingdom in many successful military campaigns that:
- retook the Province of South Gondor
- re-established dominance over Rhovanion eastwards to the Sea of Rhûn
- conquered the Corsairs of Umbar, who had attacked Gondor during the War of the Ring and made Umbar a Province of Gondor once again
Umbar had originally been a Númenórean port and an important city of Gondor in ancient times before ultimately being conquered by the followers of Castamir the Usurper following the Kin-strife, who distanced Umbar from Gondor and befriended Harad. Elessar finally reconquered the city, and the Reunited Kingdom stretched South along the coast from the Mouths of the Anduin River to the Haven of Umbar. Much of Harad was defeated and became tributary states. Aragorn was also held to be the protector of Dale (which included Lake-town), and the Dwarven realm of the Lonely Mountain although these allies maintained their own rule and kings. Aragorn is assumed to have rebuilt the old northern capital of Annúminas.
