Next year: sending messagers to mordor to start gathering orcs.

Years 7-10: getting the gorcs around Barad-dur's alliegance, killing those that don't. Sending men to get the Easterlings from the Uttermost East.

Years: 10-30: Forifying Barad-dur whilst getting more orcs. Sending messagers to Harad to gain support. Starting to unife the tribes through diplomacy and wars.

Years 30-50: Breeding new armies, experimenting with Uruk-Hai. Fortifying outlying forts and fixing them. Securing all of Harad (not including tauredain) and then more of Rhun (Not including Free Easterlings)

Year 50-60: Sending word to the Western tribes to start rebuilding from their fall in the BOFA. More like:


 * TA 2951: Sauron returns, refounds Mordor, sends three Nazgûl to DG, has the others get to work rebuilding Mordor, speeds up reconstruction of Barad-dûr, makes Barad-dûr the capital of Mordor again, begins to regather armies.
 * TA 2951-2954: Sauron's Road from Barad-dûr to Mount Doom rebuilt, Morgul-Road from Minas Morgul to Mount Doom built, Orcs gather in Mordor by the thousands, Easterlings and Haradrim are reminded of where their loyalties lie, Mount Doom erupts once more.
 * TA 2952-2962: Udûn is rebuilt, the Black Gate is raised between the Towers of the Teeth, the forts of Carach Angren are made, the mountains are delved with tunnels, holds, and armories, and the vale is made into a great mustering ground.
 * TA 2960-2965: Thaurband is rebuilt, the Núrnen Ports are build, and an influx of slaves from tributary nations makes Núrn more efficient than ever before.
 * TA 2965-2975: The old fortresses of Seregost and Amon Angren are reinforced, Morigost is expanded and garrisoned, and Nargroth is built.
 * TA 2975-2985: The Vale of the Fell Beasts and Nan Ungol are discovered and fortified.
 * TA 2985-3000: Lithlad is fortified, the roads east are repaired, the Eastern Guard is built, the Olog-hai are bred in the Ered Lithui.
 * TA 3000: Barad-dûr is completed, and the armies of Mordor are now nearly ready for war.

Men aren't like orcs, many in the East were under the influence of the Blues and it would take a long time to muster the other Easterlings (maybe except Rhudel) because of this. The Haradrim would have lost contact with Southron and would have just kept to themselves. Plus there would be many wars in the East and South that Sauron would have to diffuse before they would muster before him. I know that they worshipped him but I mean, he was away for a long time and there is a high chance of other religions coming into there. Of course Sauron would then have to crush these and persecute the followers.
