@Mrhobit and yet the noldor that came to middle earth were virtually defeated before the war of wrath started whilst the dwarven kingdoms that bordered them were never conquered. At his height Sauron refused to attack Khazad Dum in its decline and Morgoth failed to conquer either Nogrod or Belegost, yet he conquered Nargothrond, Gondolin, and most of the other elven kingdoms of beleriand. Because Morgoth was far stronger than Sauron in their primes, for one. And the efforts of Morgoth were focused on Beleriand, whereas Sauron's were far more focused on Gondor; which, might I add, should really have fallen quite soon after the ring was recaptured because the ring in all probability should have survived.
