Greetings & Kind Regards
I just now completed viewing Dune II. It occurred to me two solutions exist which would solve the problem the Fremen have id est the domination of their home world. Neither involves the shedding of blood or war. It is merely a chemistry problem.
[edit Monday, July 22, 2024] Does no one here have an interest in chemistry or is it a trivial and obvious solution.

Go read the novels by Frank Herbert. Dune was just the first of several novels that deal with the political and economic issues of that empire.

Thanks for the suggestion however re/ stories I am doing things the cheap and easy way. However I am glad long ago I read the many thousands of pages of the David Wingrove Chung Kuo series. However re/ the series is it not all based on spice.

Libraries are cheap. And easy, if there's one you can access without difficulty. Most libraries will even let you check to see if the book you're interested in is in their collection, if there's a copy available, and allow you to place a hold online. You might even be able to swing an inter-library loan, or persuade the library to add that book to the collection. With the recent Dune movies, there's probably quite a bit of interest in the series, so your local library may be re-stocking them.

My error. I meant to say "cheap and dirty" assuming its meaning to the software community is "quick and easy" as I do not have patience for the temporal debt of a lengthy series.

That I get. Just the first book is nearly 900 pages long. Practically a Trilogy, all on its own. And there's 12 books! To be fair, though, I think most of the rest are "normal" length i.e. 300-400 pages, or so

Frank Herbert wrote only 6 books in the Dune series. Even if one includes the two books that take place "after" his books (written from material that he never had time to use), that only makes 8 books.
All of the "Legends of Dune", "Prelude to Dune", "The Great Schools", books were written by his son Brian Herbert and by Kevin J. Anderson.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

I've not read anything other that the original Dune. And that was a long time ago. When I was googling earlier to find out how long the first book was, most sites said there were 12 books in the series, so I went with that.

Except for God Emperor of Dune. It's longer than Dune, but definitely worth the read if you've read Dune, Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune. Everything after those three is really a different story based in the same universe.

That was a hard read for me back then - probably because I read the books in English, and as a kid, did only understand half of it.
But clearly in my top 3 not-so-fun to read books, with the Silmarillion (and a bit of the Two Towers, where they walk, and walk, and walk, and eventually walk), and the Foundation series.
I even found Ubik to be a more interesting read.
Maybe I should give it a go now that I know a couple more English words.

I agree that the Two Towers is a very boring read, but oddly enough it is my favorite of Peter Jackson's three movie versions.
Another really hard, boring read, just because of the odd prose used, is Atlas Shrugged.

A zombie apocalypse would really surprise me, the assurance company's reaction though wouldn't.
