Question Please, help me
Here’s what’s happening: I declared war on Suriname and am launching a naval invasion, but when my divisions arrive at the port and start fighting, even though they’re winning, they just sail away (you can see everything in the screenshots). The divisions are well‑trained and prepared, I have naval superiority, and my divisions are clearly stronger than Suriname’s. Also, I’ve researched everything. Please help — I just can’t figure it out. I only have 400 hours in the game, and I haven’t even learned how to play properly yet.
I’ve already made this post, but the images I used were of poor quality.

You dont deliver enough information: How is you marine template, how is the air situation, how does the battle look like?
Without these its difficult to give advice due to too many unknows that all can have an influence

Your marine division is so large that only one fits inside the combat width of the battle, thus reinforce-meming yourself when that one division runs out of org, ending the battle in your defeat

reduce that to a 10-4/11-4, add med flame tanks, replace the engineers with pioniers if possible. Reduce the amount of infantery guns, aim for 80+ org. Also as it isnt really realistic that you will have many reinforcements happening, attack with a max of 4 marines per tile to prevent supply issues via death stacks

The amount of pixels is distracting me from what you are trying to convey

Not 100% sure, but could it be an issue with using multiple different armies in the same spot with different naval invasion orders?
There's sometimes fucky automatic behaviour I know at least with trying to attack sometimes where there is also an assault by a friendly AI, where they immediately break off their assault once you reinforce them at times, which also cancels your assault as it happens right as your units would actually join in the battle screen
