What is the significance of Middle-earth in Tolkien's work?

Middle-earth is the fictional setting where most of Tolkien's stories, including 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings', take place. It is a richly detailed world with its own geography, history, cultures, and languages. Middle-earth reflects Tolkien's desire to create a mythological history for England, influenced by both real and imaginery elements. It's a testament to his world-building genius and remains central to his literary legacy.
