If they had stayed together the whole of Rohan would be destroyed. Grimer Wormtounge would be telling Theoden that everything was hunkey Dorey. Minas Tirith would lie in ruins. The last decsendants of Numenor would be almost utterly wiped of the face of the Earth. Gondor would be no more. The Shire, Lothlorien, the Grey Havens, Rivendell, the Lonely Mountain, Bree and many more such places would be destroyed or in grave peril. The three Elven Rings would probably be in the hands of Sauron. Elrond, Celeborn, Galadriel, Gaffa Gamgee. ect. would be dead or running for there lives. Infact Middle Earth would be but a shadow of what it once was. I rest my case. This is why it was a good thing for the Fellowship to split up.
