A question:

What was Sauron's "vision" for Middle Earth? He wanted control and power yes--but to what end? What a Middle Earth under the dominion of Sauron have been like? I have not read in a while, but a Middle Earth under say the power of Saruman (industrialized, polluted) seems easier to picture than what Sauron may have wanted.

Also, by the time of the Third Age, was Sauron still, in his "heart" a servant or soldier or worshiper of Morgoth? Was Morgoth's name still known in Mordor--or in other lands or amongst those other than the Wise and the Loremasters? Would he have instilled worship of Morgoth had he won in the Third Age, as the "state religion" of Middle Earth--or worship of himself?
