And as for what might have happened if the empire had sued/defended for better terms...

It is a "what if" game for sure, but looking at the Dominions lack of success in holding Hammerfell when given it on a platter, well hindsight's 20/20.

But still, the concord pretty much gave the AD what started the war in the first place.

So, the whole war was for nought.

If Mede was going to give in at all, why fight and then accept the demands you fought to not accept?
