After the War of the Jewels in the silmarillion, most of the Noldor kingdoms were destroyed and only Lindon remained. It also was lost after its king, Gil-galad died. The only major kingdoms left were then Teleri. Only in Rivendell were many Noldor living together and speaking Quenya. But in spite of the few Noldor in ME, Quenya kept its position as a higher langauge then Sindarin and Silvan, spoken by the Teleri.
