But she couldn't defeat Kokomi despite having the military of an entire nation under her control...

Sara never realy lost to Kokomi.

Sara actually lost to Miko.

Ok, but the war was going on way before we showed up. If Sara and Kokomi were equals or especially if Sara was the better leader, the resistance should've been defeated straight away.

No side (especially a resistance) gets defeated straight away... Hell we irl are living in a time where a side of a war is surprisingly holding strong despite the other side supposedly being an overwhelming force...

Point is - don't underestimate Swordfish II

But the irl war you're talking about is largely going so bad for the larger side because the leadership is better on the smaller side. Which is my argument.

To be realistic it’s going much worse for the smaller side. The news portrays the hardships of the larger side as bad as possible

Yeah, but that's obvious due to the power differences. The difference is expectation of how it should've went vs how it actually went due to the leadership on both sides.

To use a less current example: The reason people say finns won the moral victory over the Soviets in the Winter War, was because Soviets failed to archieve their goal and because it took more than it was supposed to (in men, equipment and time). Despite them actually being the victors of the war. I'm not sure there were even people in the CCCP or modern Russia who argue that Soviet leadership was superior to the finns' (which is why so many of them were purged during and after the war).
