Towns

Forests

Lakes

Cities

Note: It's uncertain to me, if stuff from Shire or Rohan should be included, as the year is supposed to be only TA1600 when most their features supposedly weren't built or named yet...

Not sure what was the reason for this year, but I think it would be nice to change the timing to at least year 2000, because then we could include most of the popular locations like Shire, Erebor, etc. Also Minas Morgul was still Minas Ithil, and Minas Tirith still Minas Anor, etc.

Maybe even to 2500 to include Rohan, Buckland & Kingdom of Dale?

Thank you for contributing, hellricer! I'm glad you figured out how to work with github.

My understanding is that this dataset should include things as they were at the time of LotR. Which is why we show Hobbiton and other towns in the Shire. I'll look at the forum.
