I'm not talking about only CE. CE is federated with Tara & Strombran. Thats landmass of over half of Atamara. It is allied with every other except 20 regions overall on Atamara.
But Darka is not facing Taran or Strombran troops anymore. You are fighting CE forces only.
If you want to go back to when the southern realms were actively working together, it was to defend themselves from the Northern Federation. The match up, as I recall, was CE + Tara + Talerium + Coria versus Darka + Eston + Barony of Makar + Norland + Minas Ithil + Hammarsett + Carelia + Caergoth + Suville. Your side had more landmass, more manpower, and more wealth. Darka did not start out as the underdog.
Your main complaint seems to be "my side lost".
