The Second Age covered nearly 3,441 years, and it began after the banishment of Morgoth, the dark lord before Sauron.
That places approximately 3,000 years of history between the series and the beginning of The Lord of the Rings.
The highly-anticipated Lord of the Rings series will be set in the Second Age.
Production is set to begin in 2020 and will be filming in New Zealand, the same location as the film franchise.
