World War III

The **Third World War**, also called **World War III**, the **American War**, or the **Great War** was a global armed conflict that lasted from April 20, 2035 to October 8, 2040 and led to the deaths of around 500 million people. It is the deadliest fought conflict in Earth's history, and it was a war never to be forgotten.

## The Sides

### American Alliance

The American Alliance was the alliance of Monsonia and other authoritarian nations. Because they had great countries like China, Russia, and North Korea on their side, they won.

### United Alliance

This side was basically the UN. It was led mainly by William V of the United Kingdom. They did have more nations in it, but they sucked because they did. They heavily underestimated the might of the Landstreitkrafte.

## The War in North America

After the A.N.O. Alliance won the Second American Civil War in 2034, Jackson Monson was already looking for more land, so that all can prosper under Monsonia. He "asked" Canadian prime minister Ronan Timbrell for New Brunswick, because it was close, and a harmless decision. Timbrell said no, so Monson decided to do it by force. On April 20, 2035 he launched an invasion on New Brunswick. He won it, and soon began to invade more of Canada for the good of the people. Many foreigners hated what he had done, and so they SANCTIONED Monsonia. But they did not accept these sanctions, and the Monsonian military kept on going. They soon formed bonds with Russia and China. Russia, after the Putinist War, was once again under Putin's rule. And China was still China. North Korea soon joined, and the American Alliance was born. In North America, Monsonia soon invaded Mexico in August. They quickly won many battles, and they soon reached Mexico City on October 17, 2035. On the 21st, Mexico surrendered. Canada took a little more time though, but was occupied in early 2036. Soon they invaded Central America, and also Greenland. These battles were also won. How could they win so many battles you ask? DRUGS! DRUGS! DRUGS! And also government corruption. They paid rebel guerilla groups in enemy countries to help then win the war! They also paid the Mexican cartel too! Isn't corruption wonderful!? The war in North America was closed by 2038, in a decisive American victory.

## The War in South America

The war there was much like it was in the North. Many victories for the Americans, for the Monsonians. Venezuela was one of the few countries in the Americas that supported Monsonia. Brazil was a little hard to tackle, so was Argentina. But through our sheer might (and more corruption), we managed to take them down too! Brazil and Argentina both surrendered in 2038, and many others surrendered too. By the end of 2038, the was in South America was over.

## The War in Europe

The war in Europe was by far the most devastating. This is where nukes come in play. Monsonia did have nukes left over from the US, so they took that opportunity and nuked a few countries in Europe. These included the UK, Germany, France, and Spain. The rest had to suffer constant invasion from both sides, with Russia from the east and Monsonia from the west. Also many different allies from the south, such as Ethiopia, and Turkey. The war in Europe began with the invasion of the Baltic states. Then most of Eastern Europe was invaded, then it just spread there too. The UK was Monsonia's last target, with it being invaded in 2040. They nuked London on August 14, 2040, and this was what mainly caused them to surrender. They did that on October 3, only India was left after that. After the war, Europe was mainly left in shambles, with many Europeans moving to the Americas or Africa (although Brazil was also left a mess). Did you know that Monsonia and Russia were the only countries to use nukes during World War III?

## The War in Asia

Asia was also badly affected by the war. Mostly in India, Japan, and South Korea. They even nuked Mumbai in 2040, which caused India to surrender on October 8th, which ended the war. The war in Asia began with the invasion of Georgia in September 2035. Then Bhutan was invaded in November, and thus the might of communism spread throughout Asia. South Korea's invasion was interesting, they also nuked Japan again, this time in Osaka. Vietnam, although socialist, was on the United side. Monson did not like this, so they kinda went too hard on Vietnam. They publicly assassinated the political leaders, to spread the message of TRUE communism! The invasion of Asia generally ended after Indonesia and southeast Asia surrendered in 2039, but officially ended after India's surrender in 2040. There was also a big invasion of the Arabian Peninsula, because Saudi Arabia was a filthy capitalist country.

## The War in Africa

The war in Africa was the least devastating. Mainly due to the fact that a lot of African countries were in the American Alliance, and that they already didn't really have that much money. The most affected countries were Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa. After the war, Africa became a big hotspot for refugees and people who were devastated by the war. This is why Africa became a good place to live.

## The War in Oceania

The was in Oceania was the shortest, only lasting from 2038 to 2039, with Australia being the last country to surrender (because it got nuked). The pacific islands were easy to invade too, which is also why it was so short.

## The War in Other Places

There were a few battles in Antarctica. Monsonia wanted the research bases, and they fought for it. By the 2030s there was a moon base. In 2035, this moon base became Monsonia territory, and there was a little fight for it too.

## Aftermath

The war left many people dead, in shambles, and displaced. It was truly mankind's lowest point, which was also the motivation for major growth. All other countries became puppet states of Monsonia, and were led by dictators that were loyal to Monson. But major advancements in technology were also an effect of the war. By the 2060s, you couldn't really tell the war even happened.

## Legacy

If you were a Monsonian kid in school right now, you'd probably be taught that the war was needed for Monsonia to grow, and that it liberated many people from the shackles of CAPITALISM. And that only the bad people died, like the evil soldiers who oppressed the citizens. But there are a few war memorials, to forgive those innocent civilians who died during the war.
