Arandor, also called the Kingsland, was the eastern central province of Númenor.
Arandor surrounded the capital Armenelos, where most Númenóreans on the island lived. It stretched from the port city of Rómenna, where the main road that ran all the way to Andúnië began, to parts of Meneltarma and Noirinan ('Valley of the Tombs').[1]
Etymology
Arandor is a Quenya name comprised of the roots aran, meaning 'royal',[2] and -dor, meaning 'land'.[citation needed]
