Thelonechosenwanderingvaultcourier, Hammerfell and Skyrim are equal in terms of the warriors from there, it's a cliche that the Redguards are the best warriors but the Nords have actually won more wars, though they have fought more too. The Nords also certaintly suffer less loss of life in the civil war than the Redguard did in the great war, so the Nords have a great chance of pushing out the Thalmor. Also, you are forgetting the weather. It would be like when Germany tried to invade Russia in WWII, they would do well to start with but the Nords would push them out.
