[Underworld] Why is there still a war after a 1000 yrs after the lycans became independent? The vampires have no use for them anymore so why are they hunting them? Also why aren't lycans winning the war ?

Lycans literally have the advantage over most vampires physically and have far less limitations as they can live among normal people and eat regular food and other than being immortal and thier weakness to silver they should've spread out and have bred themselves into large numbers by now and should have been able to overwhelm the vampires by now  especially if they got organized and some of them became aristocrats and started gaining shadowed control in the human worlds in the same way the vampires did. yet for some reason the werewolves all live in squalor stoll being hunted down for a war that doesn't even make sense anymore.

I suspect this is exactly the reason. The vampires started out with more power and have gone to great effort to retain it. They know that, if the lycans were able to organize and gain power, it would be used against them. It would also risk an outright war, exposing their existence to humans who are, collectively, powerful enough to wipe out both of the factions.
