 Guerilla warfare is an example of asymmetric warfare.  Can you describe a conflict that happened where those using guerilla tactics did not outnumber those using conventional warfare?
In studying past incidents from history we know that, inevitably, when an insurgency forms, it is a very small percentage of the population that chooses to engage in direct action against the enemy.  It is only over time, as the insurgency's successes lead to more draconian crackdowns by the already totalitarian government, that larger percentages of the population become sympathetic to the cause.
