The Second Age began 590 years after the first rising of the Sun, following Morgoth's defeat in the War of Wrath, which devastated northwestern Middle-earth, submerging much of Beleriand. Only Lindon remained west of the Blue Mountains. This Age saw the rise of Númenor, a powerful island kingdom founded by the descendants of the Edain. As Númenor's power grew, they explored Middle-earth and established great cities. However, their pride led them to challenge the Valar, resulting in Númenor's downfall. Survivors led by Elendil escaped and founded the kingdoms of Arnor and Gondor. They formed the Last Alliance of Elves and Men, marching against Sauron, who had regained power, and defeated him, marking the end of the Second Age. Key events included the foundation of Númenor (32), the forging of the One Ring (1600), the war between Elves and Sauron (1693), the appearance of the Nazgûl (2250), the Downfall of Númenor (3319), and Sauron’s defeat (3441).
