abstract
| - The Battle of Nûrnen-Dûr was the largest battle of the khandish involvement in the Civil War of Mordor. The battle, which pitted a coalition of variag soldiers under the leadership of Ûvatha of the Borzjîgîn, the later Khagan of Khand, and nûrniag rebels against the orcs of Nûrnen under the leadership of Balcmeg, and the black númenórean mercenary Agânôhîn. The battle ended in a deciesive victory for Ûvatha and the complete destruction of the orcish horde. As a result of the battle the orcs where soon pushed out of Nûrnen which in turn became a buffer state between Gondor and Khand. The victory also increased the popularity of Ûvatha dramatically leading to his eventual ascent as Khagan of Khand. The Battle of Nûrnen-Dûr was the last major battle in Middle-Earth in which orcs played a dominant role on one side. After the fall of the orcish chiefdoms of Nûrnen the race was never again able to establish any sort of unified command structure and eventually went extinct.
