Look:

I understand people don't like comparing LOTR to real life scenarios but there are some very very similair points to Rohan and Dunland's conflict and Israel and Palestine's

For ex.

Gondor is unable to maintain a good hold on Calehadron and Dunlendings move in (Roman Empire fails to claim what is now Palestine and Arab population move in)

Dunlendings live peacefully for a very long time (Palestinians have lived in Palestine for almost 1800 years)

Gondor gives the land-sparse Rohirrim Calehadron as a gift after the war, (Britain, having the mandate over Palestine gives an area in Palestine to the Jewish Zionists for aiding them after war)

Rohirrim procede to settle in Calehadron and slowly push out the Dunlendings (Jewish Influxes into the area of Israel slowly begin to buy land and push out Palestinians from that area)

Dunlendings act aggressively to Rohan, and vice versa (Israel vs Palestinian conflict begins as we know it)
