Mordor (Earth-1943)

"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gate are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep. The great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire, ash, and dust. The very air you breathe is a poisonous fume."

- - Jaime Lannister

Mordor is a dark volcanic region in the southeast of Middle-Earth, east to Gondor, Ithilien and the Anduin river. To its south is Near Harad, to the southeast Khand, and to the east the Dothraki Sea. Because of its mountainous ranges that crafted natural fortresses against enemies, Mordor was chosen by Sauron to be his own kingdom.
