Hey guys. I've been thinking lately on the sections of Middle-earth that remain quite unknown i.e The Southern, Eastern and Northern areas. The West of course is well known but what of the other 3? Did Tolkien ever have plans to detail them for I am quite curious and would have loved to learn more about the outer areas of middle-earth?

And if Tolkien did plan to eventually detail them what cultures, locations, histories, creatures etc would you expect to see?
