Child of the 7th Age is a guest of Tom Bombadil.

I think the hobbits are actually closer to Victorian or Edwardian England; the hobbits are just too peaceful and domestic to be Anglo-Saxon.

The people of Rohan would be closer to anglo-Saxon England--the emphasis on honor and warfare. I know that the language of the Rohan was apparently similar to Anglo-Saxon.
