History
The Telmarines
The Telmarines that conquered Narnia were actually humans from Earth. On Earth, a group of pirates who intermarried with women from islands in the Pacific found an island with a cave that had an entrance to Narnian world. The pirates found the land of Telmar uninhabited, the original colony of Calormenes having been turned into dumb beasts by Aslan for their behaviour and destroyed each other. The Telmarines prospered for years until a famine struck their land. The first Caspian led the Telmarines into Narnia. After arriving at the small northern country of Narnia, he found few men to fight. He found animals, talking beasts, and trees that could move and talk. After taking over the land, most of the Telmarines drove most of the animals into hiding as the men were scared of them, believing they were demons in animal form. The few Telmarines that remained in Telmar, however, began to repopulate the nation and gradually end the famine.

Films
- In The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, the Telmarines appeared in the setting of the live-action film.
- The producers of the Disney/Walden version of the Narnia films, however, chose to give the Telmarines a Mediterranean ancestry. Thus, they are dark and have Italian/Spanish accents. It is hinted the Telmarines are descended from Spanish pirates. The Telmarines' helmet is inspired by traditional Spanish conquistadors.
