Just to be contrary, but we don't know that nothing important happened to them in the Second Age. Sauron may have been trying to conquer them, and them being unlettered hicks had no means of recording their experiences. Of course they would probably retain oral traditions of this conflict, but all peoples have tales of, "Back in the pastant dist when WE battled the great evil" and such legends are hard to pin down.

Of course, you're probably right.
