Is it to do with age?
Imladris (Elrond), Lothlorien (Galadriel), Greenwood (Thranduil), Mithlond (Cirdan) were all founded and inhabited by Elves throughout the first to third ages. Ithilien was taken over by Legolas and some of the Greenwood/Mirkwood Elves in the fourth age. Legolas was much younger than the other rulers. [ April 14, 2003: Message edited by: Eruanna ]

1. Imaldris
2. Lothlorien 3. Greenwood/Mirkwood 4. Mithlond 5. Ithilien (FA) Imladris is the only one that's spelled wrong. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Well, of the "keepers" of these places, Galadriel was the only one to have lived in the Undying Lands prior to the War of the Ring. Elrond, Thranduil, Cirdan and Legolas never stepped foot in Valinor until after the final defeat of Sauron (assuming Thranduil did eventually pass to the West - presumably he did to be with his father and son). So, I'll say Lothlorien.

Or you could say that Greenwood/Mirkwood is the odd one out, because its "keeper", Thranduil, is the only one that we don't know for sure went to the West. The others definitely went. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

hmm... it's a weird link, but I'll try it...
Lothlorien's "ruler" (Galadriel) is the daughter of a king (Finarfin) Ithilien's elven leader (Legolas) is the son of a king (Tharanduil) Mirkwood's ruler (Tharanduil) is a king Imladris' ruler (Elrond) was descended from a king (Dior/Turgon) and also served a king (Gil-Galad) And Mithlond's ruler (Cirdan) was related to a king (Thingol) So, I will hazard to guess Elrond because his closest connection to royalty is more than one generation back?

Earwen i think you got it right since it is closest to my anwser
Thranduil becasue the others played a major part with other kings (Eg: Celeborn-Kinsman of Thingol, Legolas-friend of Aragorn) so Earwen you get to go and good job

Because the question who is Calaquendi and who not is a bit of a contradiction (in my opinion [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] ) I will try my luck with in all those places lived people of Noldorian blood except in Mirkwood.

Valinor wasn't ruled by an elf. I didnt count Dūrlossiel because it didnt give me a reason.

is it eregion because it is the only one where bilbo baggins didnt go?
or otherwise possibly eregion because, while the elves of eregion helped to make the rings of power, the rings didnt go there, and a ring of power went to all the others. although thats a guess.

You are absolutely, positively, as correct as you could possibly be.
Congratulations on your heroic success, and would you please do the honour of asking the next question?

Several options:
Himring alone survived the flooding of Beleriand. OR Himring is the only one occupied by a son of Feanor (Maedhros), the other two were of the house of Fingolfin. OR Himring is the only one that wasn't founded at the prompting of dreams from Ulmo.

Was Himring the only one not beseiged? Or sacked?

Nargothrond was originally inhabited by Dwarves wasn't it?
Or perhaps, Himring was a military site while Nargothrond and Gondolin were civilian cities as well.

Not too sure on this one, but didn't Finrod enlist the help of Dwarves to build Nargothrond, while the other two were built by Elves?
