War of the Worlds

H.G. Wells’ 1897 novel The War of the Worlds and its interpretations. 
*The novel: Tripod and H. G. Wells' The War of the Worlds (2005)
** What Would happen after the End of War of The Worlds? (if the 1897 attack had been world wide)In the novel no mention of the Martians ever invading anywhere but England is made. If anything the chapter titled "Wreckage" implies the rest of the world escaped: "Across the Channel, across the Irish Sea, across the Atlantic, corn, bread, and meat were tearing to our relief. All the shipping in the world seemed going Londonward in those days." If the rest of world had seen the level of destruction England had seen then they wouldn't be in any condition to send food and certainly not in any large amounts
*Orson Welles' 1938 radio drama: AlternateHistoryHub provides one view on what the aftermath would be
*The War of the Worlds (1953). This movie had a sequel in the 1988-1990 TV series War of the Worlds but the series had enormous logic problemsFor example no one remembered the 1953 attack despite the amount of damage the Martians did. The show then tried to have the 1938 radio broadcast be of a real invasion...which given the power of the 1953 ships was total nonsense. and effectively abandoned the 1953 movie in the second season.
*The Great Martian War 1913-1917 (2013): made-for-television science fiction docudrama.
