However, Mordor is known to steal horses from Rohan, always taking the black ones. It doesn't mention if these were for the Nazgul exclusively, or for use in general. That's just a long way for me to say "While It's not canon, It's certainly not impossible."

As far as the question of Uruks go, It's really funny to see several people who have the wrong idea going after eachother for having a different wrong idea. Uruks are orcs. In Tolkien's writings people seem to have used the term "Uruk" to describe larger, more evil orcs. And yes, there were Uruks everywhere there were Orcs. Because, y'know, the same thing and all.

Saruman's Uruks are different, though. There's speculation from Treebeard that they may have been mixed with the Goblin-men Saruman has in his employ, or twisted with dark magic. But it probably had to do more with selective breeding. Maybe a combination. What about the company of black horsemen accompanying the Witch-King at Minas Morgul? Hey, you're right. I guess my brain must've skimmed over those, and they didn't show up in my research since they weren't called Morgul Knights. Still not sure how black mounted soldiery are Knights, Morgul, or Angmarim in nature. But thanks for the info.
