Something from the Annals of Arda:

Quote:
Mordor had not always been. In the First age, the Inland Sea of Helcar covered the area but the turmoil at the end of the age uplifted lands where none before had been and drowned others. The Sea of Helcar nearly vanished, leaving only small parts left: the Sea of Nurnen and Sea of Rhûn. The mountains Ered Lithui and Ephel Dúath were raised and those became the boundries of Mordor. In the beginning of the Second age Mordor, was a desolate land but it did not last. In the Second age around the first millennium, Sauron, , scared by the power of the Númenorians, chooses Mordor as the place to build his stronghold and he starts to build Barad-Dûr.
