I knew it! Barad-dûr is Tolkien's metaphor for Turin. Which puts Rohan in France, the dwarves in Switzerland-Austria and the Shire in Wales.

It would be so cool to be able to generate these with AI models from OSM data. I did some experiments with Stable Diffusion and they turned out okay, but you have to decide between accuracy and style.
