Orcs Of Angmar

## Overview

The Orcs of Angmar are ruled by an Orc known as Doggo The Mad. It is composed of a group of orcs who share the goal of conquering the whole of Middle Earth. It is a totalistic, anarchic nation with the primary purpose of raising the most powerful army in the land. They are comprised only of Orcs and their various sub-races, including regular Orcs, Uruk, and Trolls.

With their goal being world domination, it should come as no surprise that the mountainous land of Angmar is filled with Fortresses, Strongholds, Outposts, and Keeps. They do not build towns or farms. Instead, they prefer to raid the men and hobbits to the southwest, and the Dwarven Holds to the southeast.

## Religion

Like all Orcs, the Orcs of Angmar follow and worship the being known as Sauron. The Orcs (im)patiently wait for any signals or orders from Sauron, in order to begin their conquest.

## Government

Angmar is ruled by their Chieftain, Doggo the Mad. He commands absolute authority, though sometimes allows 'votes' by his underlings.

## History

### The Third Age

After the fall of the original Kingdom of Angmar in the Third Age, Orcs displaced from the lands that once were held by the old kingdom returned. Over years, they slowly organized and eventually reformed the Kingdom, though they didn't call it a 'Kingdom' anymore. Three centuries after the Fall of Angmar, the Angmar Orcs united with the nearby Gundabad Orcs, allowing them to fully conquer the lands of Angmar.

### The Fourth Age

#### FA 1634 - FA 1671 | The Loss of Moria and The Hidden War

The Dwarves settling in the Misty Mountains pushed the Gundabad Orcs and Uruks out of most of the region, especially from their stronghold in the ruined city of Moria. The Gundabad Orcs swore revenge and assembled a great host to remove the Ironfists from their reconquered home. This was named "The Hidden War," by the Ironfists. After pushing the dwarves back to their throne room, the triumphant Orcs were routed by the Dwarves of the Grey Mountains, who were reinforcing their cousins. The remnants of this army were either trapped in the deep caves or fled north to Angmar.

#### FA 1672 | Angmar Rises

The Gundabad remnants joined Angmar, in hope of one day taking revenge on the Ironfists for their defeat. With Doggo's rise to power as the strongest Orc in the region, and with his loud and repeated lack of respect for nearby nations, it is unknown when he will start his mad crusade against the realms of Men, Elves, Dwarves, and Hobbits.

## Local Laws

The Orcs of Angmar have a few local laws.

## Alliances

The Orcs of Angmar are allied with their cousins in the Southeast, The Black legions of Mordor. They share resources in the form of weapons and armor. The details of this alliance are considered a great secret held by Chieftain Doggo and The Witch-King of Angmar.
