Under normal circumstances, winning the civil war is far from the end of things. But Ulfric and the Stormcloaks will have at least 1 or 2 years to rebuild Skyrim before they get caught in the war between AD and Cyrodiil because it is likely that no matter how the civil war ends, the Aldmeri Dominion will launch an invasion on Cyrodiil.

No matter who wins, the Empire is likely going to be have another war fought in their lands.
