[QUOTE=LordLoss;27693884]The Finnish won the winter war because the Soviets at the time were woefully incompetant and they had all the advantages other than numbers, supplies and armour. They weren't super soldiers.[/QUOTE]
Finnish folks knew how to move in the terrain and thick-as-fuck forests (that literally fucking fills our borders up until lapland), and the natural terrain of Karelia is easier to defend against east than west.
[QUOTE=bazyboy;27699716]
and in 1941 the soviets attacked finland and won
[URL]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation_War[/URL][/QUOTE]
Finnish forces were more than capable of counter-attacking and regaining the lost ground back (found out the russians started immediately transporting their armored forces to german front as soon as they figured out they were done here). But finnish government decided that this war has gone long enought for them, thus peace.

Political Defeat, military victory. The same way that Vietnam war was political defeat but (sort of) military victory for America.
