Who REALLY won the war in space?
The more I think about it the more I start to tell myself that the UNSC, and not the Covenant, won the war in space in the end.
Yes I know it took three or four UNSC ships to destroy one Covenant ship, but overall I still think the UNSC had many major wins. The Unyielding Elephant, destruction of High Charity, the gas planet Admiral Cole nuked to cook the Covenant fleet in orbit, etc.... I really can't remember a time when the UNSC lost at least 150 ships or more in a single battle....
So overall, even though the Covenant won almost every engagement, when you add in Unyielding Elephant(500+ ships), High Charity (1000+ ships) and the fleet destroyed near the gas planet (300 ships) it looks like the covies lost a lot more in space than Humanity did.

^Loyalist and Separatist factions would remain largely the same if the Prophets returned. And Thursday doesn't give an impression of Elites living in "mud huts". They are disorganized and in chaos, that's all. Elites like Jul are well aware that Elites were able to support themselves and that's what Jul wants for Elites anyways, aside from wiping out Humanity.
