The Silmarillion suggests that Beleriand was destroyed and sank as a result of the War of Wrath. HoME 5, the Lost Road, suggests that the demise of Beleriand was more gradual and was finished by great waves resulting from the destruction of Numenor.

When and how do you think Beleriand was destroyed and sunk?
