In briefanswer capsule

Eärnil was thirty-second king of Gondor. Under him the Úlairi—Sauron’s Nazgûl, the Nine Ringwraiths—returned from long hiding and launched their initial assault, advancing at night from Mordor across the passes of the Mountains of Shadow to seize Minas Ithil. That place, renamed Minas Morgul, the Tower of Sorcery, warred with Minas Anor, which became Minas Tirith, the Tower of Guard. Osgiliath decayed into rubble haunted by phantoms.
