[LOTR] What makes Numenor such a strong nation?

I've read from almost all sources stating that Numenor was the strongest nation in the LOTR universe, able to stomp the dark lords forces on many accounts, only losing due to the corruption of Sauron. So what makes them so strong? Was it their strength in numbers? Technology? Were they superhumans?

Yes, they were basically super humans. They were taller, stronger, nobler, longer-lived. They were as close to elves as men could get. They really don't delve into their level of technology, but they were pretty able seafarers.
