Emil Johansson has gone through all of J.R.R. Tolkien’s works to find some interesting statistics about the characters from Middle Earth that Tolkein describes:

• Humans have the largest population followed by Hobbits, Elves and Dwarves.
• Only 19% of the total characters are female. There is only one female dwarf.
• At 589 years, Gollum had the longest lifespan among all Hobbits.
• Samwise Gamgee and Rose Cotton had 13 children – a record for Hobbits.

Check out the rest of the fascinating statistics over here.
