The lore shows us that Skyrim has been unsuccesful in fighting off any invaders, the only times when they were succesful is when they were invaders themselves.

So yes, invading warfare, they're decent at that, but even that is limited to certain periods of time. The Nords of the Fourth Era are a joke, especially the Stormcloaks. The same can be said about the Imperials of the 4th Era. Besides the weakening of the Nords were partially due to Imperial influence in the greater picture.

Fighting off invaders? Skyrim barely had any invading value in the first place. Tell me when they were invaded and couldn't drive back the foes.
