Earldoms of Gwynedd (fictional) - Lendour

Lendour

The Earldom of Lendour is located in the mountains of the same name in eastern Gwynedd. The Earldom of Eastmarch lies to the north, the Earldom of Derry to the east, the Duchy of Corwyn to the south, and the Royal Duchy of Haldane to the west. The title is first created in 822 by King Festil I Furstán, who bestows it upon his eldest son and heir, Prince Festil II Furstán-Festil. Upon his ascension to the throne in 839, Festil II names his own son and heir, Prince Festil III Furstán-Festil, Duke of Lendour. Shortly after Festil III succeeds his father in 855, he awards the land to Lord Cynfyn ap Dauyd as an earldom. Cynfyn's direct male line becomes extinct 1090, but the title passes through the female line and is inherited by Alaric Morgan upon his birth in 1091, at which point it becomes a secondary title to the Duchy of Corwyn. In 1125, Duke Alaric bestows the title upon his son and heir, Kelric Morgan, who becomes the thirteenth Earl of Lendour.
