50% levy on foreign trade
5% levy on gondor-gondor trade
2% war taxes on all citizens
20% tax on loot from the pirates and turks
people who served in the war get 80 acres of prime mordor lands or that crazy place where frodo came face to face with a dragon rider
The land of Nurn was within the borders of Mordor and Aragorn gave the freedom slaves of Nurn that land as theirs to do with it as they please. The Gondorions just reclaimed whatever and Sauron and his Nazgul had taken from Gondor, like the land of Ithilien.
>Ithilien.
That's the place I'm thinking on where the orcs attack by boat, I think. Give retired sergeants land on the frontier and let them reclaim then work the wetlands. It will be fertile as frick in 1 generation. >gave the freedom slaves of Nurn that land as theirs to do with it as they please.
Not bad, make them a nice protectorate and be a benevolent lord to them. Aragorn was a good man.
The epoch of Sauron was the reason why Gandalf stayed in Middle Earth and helped the Humans, Hobbits, Elves and Dwarves. After Sauron's downfall, Gandalf had to leave. Aragorn could not count on Gandalf's counsel anymore.
one reason boromir is a better character in the book and movie. he's not a whinny moral gay. could you imagine him letting grima run free? he literally eats Hobbits later in the book
If Aragorn hadn't spared Wormtongue, then they would not have gotten that Palantir or crystal ball thing that Wormtongue tried to thrown at Gandalf. Did you guys not read the books?
Maybe if this was some random nobody but this dude knew all of Theodens fricking secrets. The FIRST THING he did was go to Sauroman and tell him about what he's likely to do next, where his forces are deployed, and what the weaknesses of Helm's Deep are. Hundreds died because Aragorn spared a dude literally named Wormtongue
Saruman was in Theoden's head, he already knew everything. Saruman also has foresight, but Gandalf foresighted harder and use BBC posts in Saruman's head to distract him from er uhhhh frick it I just made it all up
showing grima mercy enabled the fellowship to collect the palantir sariman had later on, since grima threw it out, which was key in the success if their mission. a common theme in lotr is mercy and pity being repaid, for instance bilbo sparing gollum meant that gollum could lead the hobbits to mordor and eventually destroy the ring inadvertently.
Frodo: 'It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill Gollum when he had the chance.'
Gandalf: 'Pity? It's a pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play in it, for good or evil, before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.' Frodo: 'I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.'
Gandalf: 'So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides that of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring, in which case you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.
I think YOU are.
brown OP
grema dies anyway but yeah should've had his head and been done with it
aragorn wanted to assert dominance after all he is the rightful king of Gondor and the horse frickers are vassals. It's an humiliation ritual.

300% and all of it goes to Rivendail

>anon can't understand that mercy is a virtue in kings and that Aragorn is destined to be a good king
I mean you don't need to kill him but at least throw him in jail so he doesn't leak intel to the enimies.
>intel
I'm sure sauron and the pig men of the hills really want to know what eowyns underwear smells like
noting more virtuous than letting a guy who is responsible for mass murder go free.
Uhh...mercy bros!?

yes but if he wasnt freed Wormtongue wouldn't have killed Saruman as Gandalf foresaw.
but they didnt WANT Saruman to die they wanted him to talk first
