I'll just work on the more evil/neutral stuff like Ogres, half-orcs, and such. My other faction involves Núrn. If I remember correctly they were native men (And some slaves) put under the sway of mordor and forced to farm and such for the orcs, right?

Yeah, but they were also pretty mixed because the slaves taken by Mordor are from all over. So what do you plan to do with them?

Honestly I always thought the nobles of Nurn sold their people out in exchange for staying in power. The original people in Nûrn were tribal. I imagine them as being similar to pre-Indo-European Anatolian tribes. Then, when Mordor became the domain of Sauron, they were conquered and enslaved. As the Orcs brought back slaves from their victories from all over, the men of Nûrn became mixed with Middle-Men, Western Rhûnic men, Haradrim and to a lesser extent, Numenorean, Rohirric and Druedain.
