Who is Morgoth in Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power? The great enemy's history explained

Morfydd Clark as Galadriel in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

The Rings of Power season 2 has now begun on Prime Video as evil rises in Middle-earth. In episode 1's opening prologue we get a flashback to the moments following Morgoth's death in the First Age, and Sauron's rise among it.
