I just thought of a curious thing. Middle Earth is supposed to be based on ancient Europe, and yet, they have tobacco and potatoes. Tobacco and Potatoes originated in the Americas and got brought back to Europe by the sailors. So how did Hobbits get potatoes and tobacco? |

The ancient Numenorians were sea farers though, they could have discovered it. I've got a problem though. In the movie Legolas says LEGOLAS: THe Uruks turned Northeast, they're taking the Hobbits to Isenguard! But Isenguard was to the Northwest. How does that work? |

Nup, it doesn't work. No matter where he was standing, from that point, Isenguard was northwest. |

That's possible, but what happened to all the potato and tobacco plants afterwards? The English didn't find out about them until Columbus made port in the Americas. |

I am not too sure about tobacco, but there could've been a scenario where Middle-earth suffered its own Potato Famine and the crop died out. |
