Battles of Beleriand

In J. R. R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion, there were many battles between the Elves of Beleriand and Morgoth.

The First Battle of Beleriand was fought before the Noldor arrived, and was fought by the Sindar and Laiquendi.

The Second Battle was the Dagor-nuin-Giliath, or Battle-under-Stars, fought by Fëanor and his Seven Sons.

The Third Battle was the Dagor Aglareb, or Glorious Battle, which led to the Siege of Angband.

The Fourth Battle was the disastrous Dagor Bragollach, or Battle of Sudden Flame, in which many Noldor fell.

The Fifth Battle was the Nirnaeth Arnoediad or Battle of Unnumbered Tears, in which the Noldor were utterly destroyed.

The Sixth and Last Battle of Beleriand was the War of Wrath, which ended the First Age of Arda and destroyed Beleriand.
