In briefanswer capsule

Annúminas, the Tower of the West, was Elendil’s main seat beside Lake Nenuial. The sea carried him to Lindon, where Gil-galad welcomed him as a friend; from there he went by the River Lhûn beyond the Ered Luin and set up his kingdom. His people lived widely through Eriador near the Lhûn and the Baranduin. That northern realm was named Arnor; Isildur and Anárion built Gondor further south.
