Beleriand

Beleriand: (S.: "Country of Balar") was the northwesternmost part of Middle-earth, west of the Blue Mountains. Most of this land sank into the ocean and was destroyed in the cataclysmic War of Wrath that ended the First Age, leaving only a small portion on the mainland and a few scattered islands. The surviving portions of Beleriand on the mainland were called Lindon. Properly Beleriand did not refer to the northlands such as Anfauglith and Angband, or the eastern lands of Thargelion and Ossiriand; Nevrast and Dorthonion were "grey areas". However the term "Beleriand" was typically used informally to include all those submerged lands.
