Sauron Greater than Morgoth...

I believe you can compare their future to the life of the slaves working for Sauron in the region of Nurnen, who after the WotR were given these lands and were freed.
It would be a Pax Mordoria, that's what I meant.

I am a member of an organisation involved in peaceful conflict resolution. One problem when dealing with conflict is that in many cases peace is seen as the absence of violent, overt conflict. The definition I adhere to is that peace represents a condition in which conflicts are dealt with constructively, not ignored. Even if there would be no more fights, that still would not be peace, since all life on Arda would be subject to oppression - therefore the use of pax mordoria would be a contradiction in terms, imo. However, I strongly believe that Sauron would have a murderous, violent regime.
