'''Sauron's first defeat''' was when [[Isildur]] and others lead a force of men and elves to combat Mordor's forces. Sauron had a ring which gave him incredible power. Isulder was able to steal the ring from him in battle and Mordor's forces were defeated.

'''Osgiliath''' was a key city in the later war between Mordor and Gondor. Mordor had to win the city if they were ever going to defeat Gondor. The general of Gondor's army, [[Boromir]], destroyed the bridges over the River Anduin to temporarily halt Mordor forces. Defense of the city was left to Captain [[Faramir]] after Boromir left and he was able to hold the city for a little while.  Mordor eventually overwhelmed them with numbers and the city was taken.

After saving Minas Tirith; Rohan and Gondor lead a small force to the Black gate to attack Mordor. There plan was to distract Sauron so that he would not find [[Frodo Baggins|Frodo]]. Frodo was in Mordor attempting to destroy Sauron's ring in Mount Doom. If he did this Sauron would be defeated and Mordor's forces would crumble. After a small dialogue with Sauron's ambassador (who lead them to believe that Frodo had been captured) Mordor forces trapped them. Rohan and Gondor were outnumbered again but they stood their ground. The eagles came to join the fight.
