      The Middle eastern people in Middle Earth lived in Near Harad directly south of Gondor, the black African people lived in Far Harad, and the Easterlings lived directly east of Laketown, they were described as "swarthy" so probably more along the lines of Turkic/Tatar types that you'd find in Russia. There were also the Variags of Khand who lived east of Mordor, who might be analogous to Russians/Slavs since "Variag" is very close to "Varangian", a medieval group of conquerors who formed the earliest Slavic states.

    To be fair the Harfoots are one of three "breeds" of Hobbits who overtime intermixed with the others to eventually become one breed of Hobbit.

    Oddly... The thing that is gonna piss me off the worse about this show is if they have 2 Durins at the same time. That would be absolutely lore shattering of Dwarf religion and prophecy and history. It would basically make drwarves in Middle Earth a brand new made up race.

    Listen, this is not a historical movie. There is a cartoon in England based on Roman history and 50 % of the characters are black. While the Roman Empire was diverse and had many cultures it was not historically accurate to portray Roman England with a 50 % black population. That is problematic.
    But in a fantasy world to have some black actors portraying some roles is not a problem. We are supposed to suspend our disbelief in imagining very tall people with pointy ears but we have a problem with a black Elf? It is ok.
