		Minas Morgul, the Tower of Sorcery, was the stronghold of the Ringwraiths.
		After the War of the Ring, Sauron's forces abandoned Minas Morgul, but such was the horror of the place that the Army of the West refused to enter it, contenting themselves with burning the fields of corpse-flowers and casting down it's bridge.
		Although Minas Morgul holds its allegiance with Mordor, it was however, considered a realm apart, free to govern its own affairs and mass it's own armies, all under the malevolent rule of the Witch King.

		Minas Anor and Minas Ithil would have been little more than colonies in the first years, but their rise in importance as the secondary cities of the kings implies they must have been constantly reinforced by new settlers.
		Despite the fact that Minas Ithil fell quickly to the first assault, it should be regarded as a city with an army.
		Minas Ithil and perhaps Emyn Arnen would have remained important to Ithilien, but there would be less demand for its goods and services.

		Its position west of the River, compared with Isildur's tower of Minas Ithil in the east, is the reason for its association with the 'Setting' Sun.

		The city itself, though, was much older - as Minas Anor, it had stood since the late Second Age, and was some 2,100 years old when it was renamed.
		After the destruction of Osgiliath, Minas Tirith became the seat of power in the South-kingdom.
		The choice of this name was almost certainly influenced by the 'tower of guard' that had stood in Beleriand some 5,000 years earlier - the Minas Tirith built by Finrod to guard the Pass of Sirion.
