Tolkien was a part of helped influence the fantasy he is so well known for today. If he was not able to experience World War I or witness the environmental impacts of the Industrial Revolution, novels such as The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings may never have existed.

Tolkien is not merely just a setting; it laid the ground work for deeper meanings and messages for its novels and the author himself.

Tolkien was able to create new species within this world, such as elves and orcs, but more importantly he was able to create new languages. This allowed for Tolkien to develop his unique story and to form complex characters the world had never seen before. The most important aspect of Tolkien's work is the ability it had on the readers.
