Arothir has just left Hobbiton.

Merlin still around in the time of the last battle of Camlann? Duneadain and Easterlings and Southrons don't come in in the early mythology when it was written for England. So they couldn't be European or anything. Besides Tolkien doesn't like allegory, so he wouldn't envisage Easterlings as representing an entire race.
