They actually never won, they lost, at the cost of the tenno then slaughtering the Orokin. The sentients were either completely defeated or what remained retreated, and we just activated a beacon of some kind in that one quest, to sent a distress signal for the sentients to return.

I highly doubt they sent their entire species to try to defeat the orokin in the old war. they surly have their own solar system with more sentients.
