The Empire could've resisted the tearms of the Concordat and fought the Dominion. They were very weakened after all. Except all indications have pointed o The Empire doing just that, and building up to fight the Thalmor.

And most likely lost a war against a better supplied army, while Cyrodiil's few remaining forces were under supplied, and largely diverted to rebuild most of Cryodiil's cities, since they were largely destroyed by The Dominion. Examples?

The Dominion lost almost all of their soldiers. They were in no condition to fight. If the Empire didn't sign the Concordat, they probably could've beaten the Dominion.
