History

Origins

The first Prince of Dol Amroth was Galador,[1] but his ancestors had ruled over the land of Belfalas - possibly from Edhellond - since before the Downfall of Númenor and had been given the title Prince by Elendil.[2] Their stronghold was not known as Dol Amroth until the drowning of the Amroth.

The lands ruled by the Prince were known as Dor-en-Ernil.

Legolas , upon first meeting Imrahil, recognized him as “one who had elven –blood in his veins” ‘The last debate’ (The Return of the king pg.152)
