The Lord of Minas Morgul wrote: Okay, at this point, I really want to know, why do people always try to demonize all of Gondor on this wiki? I get if it's an in-RP opinion, but outside of RPs, it doesn't make sense to call a faction Tolkien declared to be heros villainous or power hungry, and above all, weaker than in canon. It's like those idiots in my English class who tired to label Odysseus the villain in the Odyssey, a story that it clearly about his heroism.

(No, I'm not calling you idiots, this is just a much more mild version of what they do.) You can't label an entire nation heroes. We're good with Gondor,corn at least I am anyway. But they got hit hard by the war. Not by any means weak, still very powerful. And the matter of Odyssesus being a villain is a philosophical one, not about what the author intended. Power corrupts...
