To add to Squatter's well formed list....Sauron was defeating Gondor and her allies without the Ring. The Ring could have been sitting at the bottom of the ocean and Sauron still would have ruled Middle Earth.

Makes you wonder about Sauron's wits. All he needed to do was keep anyone off Mt. Doom, finish crushing Gondor, and find the Ring at his leisure. If anyone was a madman, it was Sauron.
