World War 3 (Seanathan)

Part of Timeline (Seanathan).
== Overview ==
World War 3, also known as the Final War or the War to End all Hope, was a major worldwide military conflict that lasted from May 2037 to December 2045.
In the middle east, tensions were rising between Saudi Arabia and Iran. Iran had recently undergone reforms during the Asian Renewal, going from a theocratic dictatorship into a constitutional theocracy. The Sauds, however, still ruled with an iron first on the other side of the gulf. The Castro government in the USA didn't support giving aid to authoritarian states anymore, so the Sauds had to seek aid from elsewhere. They called on China. 
The US wasn't going to enter the war, but then in 2038, China declared war on India. This was beginning to escalate into a global conflict. 
By 2038, the Kyoto Pact, between Japan, Korea, India, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam, entered the war on the side of India. 
Months later, NATO had done the same. 
Russia at first wasn't going to intervene, but it ended up joining the side of China in 2039. Soon after Alexei Navalny was elected President, he switched sides and entered the war on the side of India. At first, this decision was unpopular among the Russian population but later gained more support. 
The war raged on, and eventually it ended with an Allied victory.
