Orcs: In the Third Age, Orcs began to multiply in the Misty Mountains about 1300, and by the time of the War of the Ring they were found there and in Mordor, Minas Morgul, Mirkwood, and other areas controlled by Sauron, from the realm of Angmar in the north to the assaults on Gondor in the south. They occupied Khazad-dűm after it was deserted by the Dwarves, and destroyed Balin's colony there in 2994, waylaid travelers in the passes of the Misty Mountains, raided in eastern Eriador and even attacked the Shire in 2747, invaded Rohan in 2800, and constantly troubled the Elves of Lórien and Mirkwood.
