What would happen if Sauron had the ring?
If Sauron had the ring, there wouldn’t be enough strength to fight back. Only because he didn’t have the ring, men were able to fight back. The free peoples were scattered and their populations dwindled in the third age, unlike the second. The strength in the second age could not be recreated in the third.
