I guess someone has to take over once the Marines get out of town.

J/k, Army is cool too, I guess. Better than the Chair Force!

Actually id say south vietnam lost the war largely due to president thieu. His opressive policies especially against the Bhuddists helped strengthen the Viet Cong and make the S.Vietnamese too small a minority to be legitimate against the North.

However typically in a war that you "lose" there are reparations concessions etc. Seeing how the nva lost 2 million and americans lost 50 thousand they were more of a mindset when the americans left of one that was "please dont come back and kick the shit out of us again"..

Theres no question from a combat perspective America hugely outperformed the ARVN and VC. The NVA deserves respect of sorts for being tough fighters willing to accept any loss. I cant quite remember the quote  Westmoreland said it i believe something like if he could accept the losses the NVA did for a week the war would be over  .. im probably butchering it but w/e.

So..........the fact that they gave Germany a shitload of land results in them not losing how exactly?
it was just a condition the bolsheviks accepted. germany subsequently lost all of it in 1917-1918. besides the fact that when they pulled out they were having lots of success look up brusilov offensive whe nthey left he war they were on the offense and winning. the public was disinfranchised with the govt adn the war.

do you really need a history lesson ? dont come into debat talking about history if you dont know about it.
russia didnt lose..

Russia couldn't even convince it's troops to advance.  Troops were deserting en masse.  Half of them lacked clothing and weaponry.  The Russians gave Germany much of Russia's best land.  Most of the time, back then, wars didn't end with whole countries being taken over.  They ended with transfers of territory.

Besides which, the Brusilov Offensive was the last hurrah of the Russian forces, a full year before they withdrew.  Conditions were steadily worsening.
