But a very small amount of guards and warlords That's a common misconception, sadly. We have know proof that the captains were Numenorean, and as such were likely just Haradrim.

What? I don't know what you're saying. They would have less black, if anything, as they were *less* attached to their culture.

They were as likely to be Haradrim as they are to be Númenórean, considering especially that there were Númenóreans in Mordor. There is no reason to assume the less powerful of the two, especially when the latter is fairly possible and is what many fans see Umbar as.
