World War III

World War III is a war was a war in which America and it's allies fought hard against the Soviets. The war then turned Nuclear as the US, UK, France and Canada (the strongest members of NATO) with China were nuked by the Soviets and Cuba as China nuked the Soviets with America. After the Nuclear attack, the allies were weak and the Soviets were close to Victory which sparked the monarchist revolution which resulted in the restoration of many monarchies in Europe, Africa and Asia. The revolution was successful due to the fact Warsaw Pact forces were weak due to disorder amongst their ranks and chaos within the Soviet Union due to many resistance movements and revolts. The war lasted from 1980-1992 which resulted in the war being dubbed the 12 year war.

=== Pre-War Incidents ===
==== Europe After After WWII ====
The Cold War, a geopolitical tension between the United States and the Soviet Union and their respective allies, the Western Bloc and the Eastern Bloc, began following World War II. This Cold War was based around the ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence by these two superpowers, following their temporary alliance and victory against Nazi Germany in 1945. Aside from the nuclear arsenal development and conventional military deployment, the struggle for dominance was expressed via indirect means such as psychological warfare, propaganda campaigns, espionage, far-reaching embargoes, rivalry at sports events and technological competitions such as the Space Race.
The Western Bloc was led by the United States as well as the other First World nations of the Western Bloc that were generally liberal democratic but tied to a network of the authoritarian states, most of which were their former colonies. The Eastern Bloc was led by the Soviet Union and its Communist Party, which had an influence across the Second World. The US government supported right-wing governments and uprisings across the world, while the Soviet government funded communist parties and revolutions around the world. As nearly all the colonial states achieved independence in the period 1945–1960, they became Third World battlefields in the Cold War.
The first phase of the Cold War began shortly after the end of the Second World War in 1945. The United States and its allies created the NATO military alliance in 1949 in the apprehension of a Soviet attack and termed their global policy against Soviet influence containment. The Soviet Union formed the Warsaw Pact in 1955 in response to NATO. Major crises of this phase included the 1948–49 Berlin Blockade, the 1927–1949 Chinese Civil War, the 1950–1953 Korean War, the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, the 1956 Suez Crisis, the Berlin Crisis of 1961 and the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. The US and the USSR competed for influence in Latin America, the Middle East, and the decolonizing states of Africa and Asia.
Following the Cuban Missile Crisis, a new phase began that saw the Sino-Soviet split between China and the Soviet Union complicate relations within the Communist sphere, while France, a Western Bloc state, began to demand greater autonomy of action. The USSR invaded Czechoslovakia to suppress the 1968 Prague Spring, while the US experienced internal turmoil from the civil rights movement and opposition to the Vietnam War. In the 1960s–70s, an international peace movement took root among citizens around the world. Movements against nuclear arms testing and for nuclear disarmament took place, with large anti-war protests. By the 1970s, both sides had started making allowances for peace and security, ushering in a period of détente that saw the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks and the US opening relations with the People's Republic of China as a strategic counterweight to the USSR. A number of self-proclaimed Marxist regimes were formed in the second half of the 1970s in the Third World, including Angola, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Cambodia, Afghanistan and Nicaragua.
==== The Dispute over the name "China" ====
China was one of the original 51 member states of the United Nations, which was created in 1945. At that time, the Republic of China (ROC), led by the Kuomintang (Chinese Nationalist Party), was the government of China. The ROC army was engaged in a civil war with troops led by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). In 1949, the CCP proclaimed the People's Republic of China (PRC) in Beijing, and the ROC government was forced to retreat to Taiwan, which Japan had renounced all right, title and claim to in the Treaty of San Francisco. After 1950, the PRC was in control of mainland China, while the ROC maintained control over Taiwan, Penghu, Matsu and Kinmen.
The People's Republic of China claimed to be the successor state of the Republic of China, while the Nationalists in Taiwan championed the continued existence of the Republic of China. Both claimed to be the only legitimate Chinese government, and each refused to maintain diplomatic relations with countries that have recognized the other. The ROC continued to represent China in the UN until Resolution 2758 was passed.
On 15 July 1971, 17 UN members, led by Albania, requested that a question of the "Restoration of the lawful rights of the People's Republic of China in the United Nations" be placed on the provisional agenda of the twenty-sixth session of the UN General Assembly. In an explanatory memorandum accompanying their request, the 17 UN members observed that for years they had protested against what they considered were hostile and discriminatory policy followed by several governments with regard to the communist government of mainland China, which they considered to be the genuine representative of the Chinese people. The existence of the People's Republic of China, they declared, was a reality which could “not be changed to suit the myth of a so called Republic of China, fabricated out of a portion of Chinese territory”. In the view of the 17 UN members, the ROC were unlawful authorities installed in the island of Taiwan which claimed to represent China, and they remained there only because of the permanent presence of United States Armed Forces. No important international problems, they added, could be solved without the participation of the People's Republic of China. It was in the fundamental interests, they concluded, of the United Nations to "restore" promptly to the People's Republic of China its seat in the organization, thus putting an end to a "grave injustice" and "dangerous situation" which had been perpetuated in order to fulfill a policy that had been increasingly repudiated. This meant the immediate expulsion of the representatives of the Chiang Kai-shek regime from the seat which it held in the United Nations.
On 17 August 1971, the United States requested that a second item, "The representation of China in the United Nations" be placed on the provisional agenda, too. In the explanatory memorandum accompanying the U.S. request, the U.S. said that in dealing with the problem of the representation of China, the United Nations should take cognizance of the existence of both the People's Republic of China and the Republic of China; it should reflect that incontestable reality in the manner in which it made provision for China's representation. The United Nations, the U.S. submitted, should not be required to take a position on the respective conflicting claims of the People's Republic of China or the Republic of China pending a peaceful resolution of the matter as called for by the United Nations Charter. Thus, the U.S. added, the People's Republic of China should be represented and at the same time provision should be made to ensure that the Republic of China was not deprived of its representation.
On 22 September 1971 the United States proposed at the UN General Committee that the two items be combined into one item called "The Question of China". The proposal was, however, rejected by 12 votes to 9 with 3 abstentions.
On 25 September 1971, the first Albanian-backed draft resolution, A/L.630 and Add.l and 2, was submitted by 23 states including 17 of the states which had joined in placing the question on the agenda, to "restore to the People's Republic of China all its rights and expel forthwith the representatives of Chiang Kai-shek."
On 29 September 1971, a second draft resolution, A/L.632 and Add.l and 2, sponsored by 22 members including the U.S., was proposed declaring that any proposal to deprive the Republic of China of representation was an important question under Article 18 of the UN Charter, and thus would require a two-thirds supermajority for approval.
On 29 September 1971, a third draft resolution, A/L.632 and Add.l and 2, sponsored by 19 members including the U.S., was proposed by which the Assembly would affirm the right of representation of the People's Republic of China and recommend that it be seated as one of the five permanent members of the Security Council but also affirm the continuing right of representation of the Republic of China.
On 15 October 1971 the representatives of 22 UN members requested the UN Secretary-General to distribute, as an official Assembly document a statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China dated 20 August 1971. In this statement, made in response to the U.S. letter of 17 August 1971 and its accompanying explanatory memorandum, the People's Republic of China declared that the U.S. proposal was a blatant exposure of the Nixon government's scheme of creating "two Chinas" in the United Nations. It added, there was only one China, the People's Republic of China. Taiwan, it added, was an inalienable part of Chinese territory and a province of China which had already been returned to the motherland after the Second World War. It went on to state that the U.S. was plotting to separate Taiwan from China and was wildly attempting to force members of the UN to submit to its will. The Chinese government declared that the Chinese people and government firmly opposed "two Chinas", "one China, one Taiwan" or any similar arrangements, as well as the claim that "the status of Taiwan remains to be determined". They declared they would have absolutely nothing to do with the UN in such scenarios.
Discussion at the Assembly took place at 12 plenary meetings between 18 and 26 October 1971 with 73 member states taking part. During the debates four more draft resolutions were submitted - three by Tunisia and one by Saudi Arabia. Broadly, each of these draft resolutions was a variation on the third draft resolution described above, backed by the U.S. Notably, the Saudi-proposed resolution would have held that the people of the island of Taiwan had a right to self-determination. Similarly, the Tunisian resolution would have called for the Republic of China government to be represented in the United Nations under the name "Formosa".
Algeria's representative in the debates submitted that to recognize that the government of the People's Republic of China was lawfully entitled to represent China did not imply the eviction of a member but the eviction of the representatives of a dissident minority regime. The U.S., in its submission, took the opposite view; arguing that adoption of the resolution expelling the representatives sent from Taipei would imply the termination of the membership of a longstanding member. The spokesman of the Republic of China submitted that his country had earned its place in the United Nations by virtue of its contribution to peace and freedom during the Second World War. He said the Chinese communist regime, which had never had the moral consent of the Chinese people, could in no way be regarded as the representative of the great Chinese nation. Various members including two permanent members of the security council, the United Kingdom and the USSR, argued that requiring the matter to be subject to a supermajority vote was not appropriate because the adoption of the Albanian proposed resolution did not involve the admission or expulsion of a member. Rather it concerned only credentials and Taiwan had never been a member. They argued there was only one Chinese state that was a member. Any other Chinese state would have to apply for membership in accordance with the Charter.
On 25 October 1971 the voting took place. In the first vote held, the Assembly rejected the U.S. backed proposal that the matter would require a supermajority vote — the 'important question motion'. The Assembly then voted on a separate U.S. proposal that the words "and to expel forthwith the representatives of Chiang Kai-shek from the place which they unlawfully occupied at the United Nations and in all the organizations related to it" be removed from the draft resolution. This motion would have allowed the PRC to join the UN as "China's representative",[clarification needed] while allowing the ROC to remain a regular UN member (if there had been enough votes for it). The motion was rejected by a vote of 61 to 51, with 16 abstentions.
At this point the representative of the Republic of China, Ambassador Liu Chieh, stated "in view of the frenzy and irrational manner that has been exhibited in this hall, the delegation of the Republic of China has now decided not to take part in any further proceedings of this General Assembly." He said the "ideals upon which the UN was founded" had been "betrayed".
The Assembly then adopted draft Albanian proposed resolution A/L. 630 and Add.l and 2, by a roll-call vote of 76 to 35, with 17 abstentions, as Resolution 2758. The Beijing government began representing China at the UN from 15 November 1971 and its delegates were seated at the UN Security Council meeting held on 23 November 1971, the first such meeting where representatives of the Beijing government represented China.
==== Rise of the Iranian Empire ====
In the year 1978, President Gerald Ford had ordered the assassination of Grand Ayatollah Khomeini. The assassination of Khomeini was successful in the failure of the Iranian revolution which resulted in the Shah remaining in power. Many months later, Iran under the Shah became a secular westernized global superpower who had helped fight in the Soviet-Afghan and restored the monarchy of Afghanistan as a Puppet Regime. The Shah had elected Crown Prince Rahmatullah of Afghanistan as King because Crown Prince Rahmatullah of Afghanistan was the son of Amanullah Khan and the Shah believed that Amanullah's reforms would be perfect in restoring Afghanistan to it's former glory. 
Mohammad Zahir Shah was not chosen because the Shah believed that it was his fault for not doing enough "reforms and not saving those in poverty", but in reality the Shah desired to have a reformer king to have Afghanistan contribute to the Shah's White Revolution. Amanullah's loyalists cheered with happiness that Crown Prince Rahmatullah of Afghanistan, the son of Amanullah Khan the reformer has returned to Afghanistan to be King. Crown Prince Rahmatullah of Afghanistan had returned with his wife Adelia Graziani, brother Prince Ehsanullah, sister in law Leyla Tarzi and his paternal nephews Ahmed Aman Ullah and Rahmad Ullah. Rahmatullah had become King Rahmatullah Shah of Afghanistan. 
Pakistan tried to fight them off and put the Mujahdeen in power, but Iran helped the Afghan Monarchy win the allegiance of the local tribes who then fought on their side and defeated the Mujahdeen as Iran invaded Pakistan. The Mughal Empire and the Khanate of Kalat have been restored as the rest of Pakistan was annexed of Iran including territories owned by India. This had angered India who was unable to fight Iran due to political turmoil with Communists which also ruined relations with the Soviets.
The Soviets after their loss in Afghanistan decided to invade Manchuria and Taiwan to gain warm water ports and surround China by coast which they believed would be a success. They then commenced the plan and invaded Manchuria and Taiwan which was at first successful, but it gained international attention which started World War III.
=== Asian Theatre ===
The Soviets tried to fight hard against China, but both of their naval forces were constally fought in battles that usually ended in draws. However China sometimes gained naval victories due to the Soviet Navy not being strong enough to fight China as they were not getting moral support from their citizens who were tired of being oppressed by a Communist regime. Sadly despite many victories, China invaded North Korea through Manchuria and caused a Maosit insurection in South Korea that created a Pro-China communist regime in the region to get Korea and merge it into China itself. Sadly for China, Japan invaded Korea, Manchuria and Vladvistok to counter China and prevent China from potentially invading Japan itself. Japan created puppet states in the regions that would help Japan fight against the Soviets and China as a distraction so Japan can help America liberate Taiwan from the Soviets and fight off Communist China so they do not get Taiwan.
The Soviets gained a victory against China by conquering Xinjiang as India helped the Soviets by liberating Tibet, but it resulted in China invading Assam and Bangladesh and creating a Communist State and supported the Communist Insurectionists within the Communist bloc of India which caused an age of instabilty in India until it's conquest by Iran. China also invaded Burma during the 8888 uprising to keep Ne Win in power and they also invaded Vietnam and Laos to invade Cambodia to restore Pol Pot as ruler of Cambodia. Sadly for China, Thailand with aid from Japan, the Philippines and America invaded the regions with aid from Manipur who restored it's monarchy with help from Thailand after the India crisis to help Thailand get a front on Burma. Thailand after the invasion restored the monarchies of Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Burma, but Northeast Burma was merged with the Communist India Satellite of China.
Major General Suharto and his military dictatorship after anti-communist purges was overthrown by the Communists. This caused problems with Malaysia who then invaded all of Borneo, Sumatra and Java to prevent their expansion and save the Sultanates in the regions. They also conquered the Islands of the Sultanate of Sulu to prevent the communists from causing trouble with the Philippines and hinder their efforts in the war. Sadly the political Islam forces of Indonesia and Malaysia had taken over the countries and Singapore and declared the creation of a New Caliphate in Southeast Asia, Singapore was conquered and declared the Capital of the land.
Iraq and Syria as allies of the Soviet Union however played Neutral and stayed out of the war as they did not want to provoke Imperial Iran fearing that provoking Imperial Iran, Turkey or Saudi Arabia would result in wars that could easily destroy them.
=== European Theatre ===
The Soviets were upset with their failures so much that they then invaded Europe which resulted in chaos as the Soviets invaded Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Italy. The Soviets also invaded Turkey to invade Africa and the Middle East, America tried to help the European nations repel the Soviet invaders, but the Soviets and their soldiers had the advantage as they overthrew Germany's government within days and they have conquered Austria. Iran had repelled the Soviets from Turkey by conquering Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan. The Soviets also invaded Finland which resulted in Sweden joining Nato as they with Norway and Denmark declared war on the Soviet Union.
The war was long and devistating as the allies with UK, French, American and Canadian support fought against the Soviets with all of their might. Sadly the Soviets at first were able to sustain victories in Germany and Finland which was a blow to the allies and they had to fight hard to keep them at bay.
=== African Front ===
Anwar Sadat was assissinated by Khalid Islambouli and the Arab League backed him and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad in the takeover of Egypt. Iran and Israel had funded a monarchist revolution in Egypt which restored the Egyptian monarchy. The Arab League then declared war on Israel, but Iran used nuclear weapons it gained from the US and scared the Arab Nations to the point that they reconsidered declaring war on Israel and Egypt. However Gaddafi continued to wage war on Egypt and rid the monarchy before support for the Senussis became a thing. Sadly Libya was bombed as Iran helped restore the Senussis and the royals of Tunisia. The Senussis only got the east half of Libya as the west half remained in Gaddafi's hands. Gaddaffi then conquered South Tunisia and South Algeria to create a new United Arab Socialist Jamahiriya ruled by him. This resulted in the war that Gaddaffi fought against the monarchies of Tunisia, Cyrenaica, and Morocco with the remains of the Republic of Algeria.
Many republics in Africa collapsed as Communist insurections occured and the insurectionists waged wars against tribal groups and pro-American proxies which caused massive devistation.
=== Total Destruction Crisis ===
The Soviets sadly then gave nukes to Cuba who then nuked America causing a nuclear apocolaypse that devistated the American economy as it fell apart into chaos. The UK, France and Canada were nuked by the Soviet Union who then conquered Xinjiang and declared victory, however China nuked the Soviets with 1,000,000 nuclear missiles as the Soviets did the same to China.
The great powers of the UN security council nuking each other had resulted in a power vaccum and the world was in massive anarchy. Soviet Soldiers and their Warsaw Pact Slave Soldiers ran rampit as they attacked NATO soldiers as citizens were looting and causing destruction everywhere they went. This era of lawlessness was a terrible age and it was thought to have destroyed much of society.
=== Monarchist Revolution ===
Imperial Iran and Japan with Denmark, Oman, Sweden and Norway had funded monarchist revolutions in Africa, Asia and Europe which restored many monarchies which resulted in the creation of new nations and the end of the age of lawlessness. Many autonomus monarchies in Africa had gained independence as sovereign states and they had even created empires. Africa still had socialist regimes in Angola and Mozambique with the land between them merging into the People's Republic of Mittleafrika.
The creation, indepencence and restoration of the monarchies took a big toll on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iran, Japn and Oman, but they were able to regain their economic status as nations. The Princely States of India were restored, but they were sadly autonomus monarchies within the unstable India that were funded protection by Imperial Iran and it's Puppet States of Afghanistan, Kalat and the Mughal Empire.
=== Cuban expansion ===
The Cuban Communist regime invaded the west indies and annexed the west Indies with Puerto Rico. Jamacia and the Bahmas were merged with Cuba directly as Puerto Rico and the West Indies Islands east and south of it became a Syndicalist Satellite State. Cuba had expanded into Venezuella and put Nicolas Chavez into power as General-Secretary. 
== Aftermath ==
World War III was the end of the cold war as the great powers of the UN security council had destroyed each other in a Nuclear Brawl which resulted in an era of lawlessness in the former Warsaw Pact States, Africa and mainland Asia. This and the monarchist revolution had resulted in the rise of the popularity of the monarchy and the monarch of a nation being a unifyer and the source of strength and national Identity. The monarchist revolution had restored many of the monarchies of the past, helped autonomus monarchies in Africa gain independence and create Empires and the creation of new monarchies that would help rebuild nations in those regions.
The Monarchist revolution also restored Brazil and Mexico's monarchies, but it resulted in influencing the dictator of Argentina and the tyrantical Warlord of Argentina's Military regime Leopoldo Galiteri (who recently conquered the Falklands after Britain's destruction) and Alberto Fujimori in crowning themselves as monarchs of their nations as Empires. Brazil had won both wars with heavy tolls such as mass casualties and the loss of Emperor Luiz and his family who were replaced with Pedro III and his family.
The Monarchist Revolution had helped benifit countries such as Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Portugal, Courland, Romania, Austria, Bulgaria, Italy, Greece, Yugoslavia, Albania, Turkey and Finland who were able to enter an age of prosperity after many years of rebuilding and the success of their monarchies in doing a great job in maintaining loyalty from the people. Norway, Denmark and Sweden were able to help them with the rebuilding of Europe. 
France on the other hand had a negative outcome from it getting nuked and from the the Monarchist Revolution as it was then split into three kingdoms and one republic and these four nations are at war with each other as they see themselves as the one and true France. Britain's royals are all dead and they were replaced by the Hanover Dynasty who were rulers of the Kingdom of Hanover and Duchy of Brunswick. Ireland became a Kingdom ruled by the royals of the defunct Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha as monarchs. 
Iran had funded many monarchist revolutions and had to pay many war repreations for their effort, however they were able to pay off their debt by profiting off of the money they gained from the Princely States in India for protecting them from the Communist Insurectionists who are causing trouble for India. Iran would invade India many years later which would start a three year war that would last all the way until 2016 in which they would successfully partition India into multiple puppet states ruled by the Princely Rulers themselves.
America after getting nuked became multiple states split up into multiple states with many different ideologies that waged war against each other as they saw themselves as the legitimate America. Denmark had expanded into Central Canada to gain the middle territory and gain political and economic influence in the young republics of Canada and Quebec and prevent them from being economically and politically controled by the warmongering American nations. Japan had annexed Alaska as a commonwealth realm to stop the California Aristocracy from getting the region which resulted in California and Japan becoming enemies and Japan and Hawaii became allies.
Africa also had a negative outcome from the monarchist Revolution as the Empire of Central Africa is waging wars with the Islamic Monarchies of Africa in the North and west and Ethiopia to the east for it desires to expand into a strong African Empire under it's control. This was a threat to Ethiopia who desired to not loose it's Sudanese territories so it can have a coast. The Islamic African Monarchies are waging war with Muanmmar Gaddafi's dictatorship as they see it as a cruel regime that oppresses people whereas Gaddafi is constantly waging war on them to get more territory for his Afro-Arab Jamahiriya. The Southern Monarchies in South Africa are waging war against the Boers and their King and the Socialist Republics north of them so they endure an age of peace and prosperity and not have to worry about their neighbors potentiallly invading them.
Japan created an economic and political alliance of monarchies and republics in East Asia dominated by Japan itself as a great power as a way for Japan to defend all of Asia from Chinese aggression, especially after China expanded into Siberia and Central Asia. Australia and New Zealand fell appart after the fall of the UK and the Commonwealth. Japan had gained West and North Australia and created two new nations, the Kingdom of Dawinchukuo and the Kingdom of Perthchukuo as the South of Australia became an Aborigional Republic. The rest of Australia became a dual monarchy ruled by the illegitimate son of the dead Prince Charles, Simon Doriante Day as Emperor of Australisia, King of Australia and Grand Duke of New Zealand. 
Cuba had created a communist Empire in Colombia, Venezuella and all of the Caribbean and it helped Cuba enter an age of prosperity which caused trouble for the Kingdom of Miami which was created by Will Smith after he took control as King to unify Miami and combat the Cubans.
