Núrn - the Sad Land
Núrn (BS."Nurza-Shukh"), the "Sad Land," constituted all of southern and eastern Mordor. A semi-arid plateau, it served as the breadbasket of Sauron's wicked kingdom. Its numerous Hildo inhabitants, most of whom were enslaved, included the Mordorin- and Nûradja-speaking tribesmen indigenous to the Núrn Basin.
