Gondor and Arnor are actually both heavily based on the Roman Empire. When they're united, they're the entire empire. When they split, Arnor is the Western Empire and Gondor is the Easter Empire. That's why Arnor falls while Gondor keeps chugging along, albeit in a diminished state. In particular, Osgiliath is clearly based on Constantinople, since it spans the Anduin River the way Constantinople spans the Bosphorous.

LOTR is thus, in part, kind of an AU history story about what would happen if magical powers managed to save Constantinople from the Ottomans.

Yes, I too remember how Gondor effectively defeated Mordor through increasing spending on the military that Mordor couldn't keep up with without any battles having to take place.

Oh, and I remember that time when Mordor installed super-rings which could obliterate the world in Isengard which almost led to Gondor using their own super-rings on Mordor.

Maybe... CS Lewis was definitely. JRRT, perhaps. But he seemed to be more into the industrial revolution verses trees. Also, war (though he said no, I don't believe you can get rid of that out of your own head).

Tolkien was an extraordinarily devout Catholic. In fact, if you want to know his political leanings, it's simpler just to say he was "politically Catholic," because he believed what the Church taught and didn't fit neatly into a more modern political framework.
