Does it really change the outcome of the war? Does a country fall when the capital city is captured?

Depends. You don’t need to defeat a people, only their will to fight.
If people are armies and tanks and planes, then there is a military order of command. And depending on the culture, the military may just be the government, and if you bribe someone to tell everyone else to stand down, or you will kill them, kill their family, bomb all their possessions ect. They may listen but will need a way to save face and show everyone the jig is up. So it is a performance, one thing everyone can point to and say, yep, we are done here.
If the people are farmers with guns defending their property and loved ones from rape and murder, they don’t give a shit about a bunch of rich assholes from the government that taxes them telling them the jig is up.
