If we're putting it into this world's terms, I always pictured the Haradrim from Near Harad as an arabic nomadic folk with all the desert there. Far Harad is where the darker-skinned Haradrim came from with the Oliphants, and the people of Khand were more Asiatic and were good martial arts fighters. Just how my mind's eye sees them and are images i got since the first time I read the books.
