Middle Earth Rangers

In the Lord of the Rings there were two groups of Rangers, the Rangers of the North and the Ithilien Rangers.

The Rangers of the North were a semi-military group raised from the Dundedain tribes that remained in the North after the Fall of Arthedain the last of the successor kingdoms of Arnor.

The Ithilien Rangers were Gondorian Dunedain that patroled the forests of Ithilien after it was wrested from Gondorian control.

Middle Earth Rangers therefore can be seen as an irregular force that patrol lawless regions in the place of official troops.
