It is extremely rare for wars to be over in as little as two weeks.

In modern times, not necessarily. Plenty of examples of short-lived conflicts that literally are called 'x' Day War, even among large states. 

Please provide examples. Looking at this list, for both historical and modern times, basically every recorded war of mid size, large, or super power states has been 4+ years.
