Sorry, but there's nothing more to 'Hatholwaith' than what you see. It's just a translated name for 'Axe people', referring to the 'new kind of Easterlings' with axes who were seen at the Pelennor fields. That's all there is to it. Now, they will probably be a faction some day, because we need to fill Rhûn with something and these people present a good opportunity to base a faction on. But right now there is nothing to theorise on, nothing to prove, because there is nothing more to it than a singular mention in the book and a translated Sindarin name. Even the name on the map may well be moved to somewhere else.

Also, I must say it would be a terrible idea to create a faction for the mod based on a game completely unrelated to Middle-earth.
