: I imagine many of the people passing up the Greenway would have been Dunlendings or people from West Rohan who were of mixed blood, but maybe also some Rohirrim and people from Gondor. I think Aragorn and Eomer would have tried to reach some sort of arrangement with the Dunlendings to help them get over their antipathy for the Rohirrim.It seems that Tolkien had a profound dislike for the Dunlendings. I don't think he intended them to settle any new lands after the restoration of peace. I think the people coming up the Greenway may have been the original population of Arnor returning from exile.
