World War III

World War III (often abbreviated WWIII or WW3), also known as the Third World War, was a global war that started with The Later Spanish Acts of 2081. As always, Germany played a role in starting the war, lost, and was blamed by everyone else.

Italy, although a member of one of the belligerent alliances, did not participate in the war. The martian colonies didn't take part either.

During the war, the German Army destroyed the Chernobyl Contention Shield while going to Putingrade, freeing the until-then peaceful Mutant Eldritch Horror living there. The creature, annoyed by this, destroyed the army by raping and sending them to the void, and would later ally with Russia to further its revenge.

The most notable consequences of WWIII include the complete annihilation of France (as well as the ecological effects) and the rise of High Overseer Zaera.
