Humans had more mages thats what happened due to higher birth rate and their affinity for magic is stronger. (I speak about lower/druid etc.. human magic variant ofc, not the Sage stuff of the elves) Their pool for manpower is high too and can out"breed" casulties + some new diaseses happened also. Elves alienated or destroyed all possible allies like Dwarfs,Gnomes,Halflings etc..

Thought I dont get how did they degrade into milkdrinkers and naive,non-caring idiots: as they were very agressive when they first arrived to the continent on their white ships. Their first thing was to supress everyone else like the Dwarven (Mountain) Kingdoms. This suggests they had a millitary tradition surpassing even current Nilfgaard. My bet is what happens with big Empires all the time: Civil War and they scattered into petty kingdoms warring each-other. So humans finished of their dying Empire by that point.
