Um.

The south lost.

What matters is superior forces.

The north was losing until they had a put a compitent general in place. They were losing to a less advanced numerically inferior, factional force. Gettysburg and Grant saved the union as we know it.

Also: Alexander at  Issus.
The german defeat in their russian campaign in WW2. (the russians had superior numbers obviously, but they didnt even have enough weapons to equip there men.) (this is an example of bad strategy by german command.)
