..Why would they hire mercenaries? And what evidence of bandit bands, aside from the one-time invasion of the Shire orchestrated by Saruman, is there? And, theoden, that's a general term. WHO? Not just "People who need warriors." Give me specifics. You're giving a general, unapplied, medieval term for people who would use mercenaries.. Who would that be in LotR?
