The Battle Under the Trees was a battle that took place during the War of the Ring, between the forces of Mirkwood, under the command of its Elven-king Thranduil, and the forces of Sauron from Dol-Guldur.
History
On March 15, 3019, the realm of Thranduil was invaded by the forces of Dol-Guldur. The majority of the forces were sent to Lothlórien, using its remaining forces to attack the Woodland realm, trying to secure the Elvenking's flank. Easterlings were supposed to arrive and overwhelm their army, but they were occupied in battle with the Dwarves and Men at the Lonely Mountain. The Elvenking himself repelled these forces, and there was a long battle from which ensued a "great ruin of fire" among the woods. King Thranduil and his people emerged as victors, and he announced a New Year of the Elves.[1][2]
Aftermath
On the day of the New Year, Thranduil and Celeborn met in the forest where they rename Mirkwood as Eryn Lasgalen, The Wood of the Greenleaves.[1][2] Thranduil gave the southern part of his realm to Celeborn, and kept the northern part as far as the mountains for himself and his people. The woodlands in between were given to the Beornings and Woodmen.
