Did Tolkien ever write anything more about the division of Arnor and the reasons for it? If not, does anyone have any interesting speculation about it?

Also, the division never seemed very fair. Arthedain got to have the old capital of Annuminas and the new capital of Fornost, as well as all three of the Palantir. It also got what became the Shire, Bree, Amon Sul (At least I assume so). . .Cardolan got. . . hmm, the coast, Tharbad, the South and Barrow Downs? That doesn't seem too good. And Rhudaur seems to have gotten completely screwed. What population centers would there have been in Rhudaur? The Angle?

Also, were there any regional lordships in Arnor like those in Gondor (whether they're feudal or not I leave to others)? Also, who were the "Evil Hill Men" who lived in Angmar and took over Rhudaur?

Besides the Dunedain, who lived in Arnor? Dunlending related people seem to have spread up through Cardolan to Bree, but what other peoples are living in Arthedain and Rhudaur? (Evil Hill Men? Other Edain related types?? Someone else???)

Well, I guess that's all.
