Prelude
Gulf of Alaska Incident
In February 2024 United states naval ships and Canadian National people's army ships had a brief stand off in the gulf of Alaska as they fired warning shots at each other and some even firing directly upon each other causing the death of 77 sailors. While War was narrowly averted, due to it being an election year it greatly hurt Pete Buttigiegs chances of winning the 2024 election and as a result his lost to Jeb Bush.
Democratic Alliance Invasion of Haiti
Later in 2024, due to the ongoing crisis in Haiti, the Democratic Alliance launched Operation Enduring Democracy, intending to stabilize the region, while it was mostly a success, with the crisis being stopped. The USR, Amfed, and France took the opportunity to establish several bases there, causing the communist bloc to accuse them of imperialism.
2024 Brazilian Coup deate

The Spanish forces were smashed, and Madrid fell in a little under two weeks. In the aftermath, it was agreed to keep Spain a neutral Republic. Despite the close collaboration coming from this, tensions would continue to rise between the Democratic Alliance and Communist Bloc.
Battle of Black Creek
In late 2026 Arizona National Guard Units and Columbian Army Forces would skirmish in the Battle of Black Creek(despite the Actual Battle taking place about 1 mile south of said creek) The battle ended in a draw and the Columbian Army had to withdraw but the war was narrowly averted when the premier of the PCC said the officer who launched the battle went rouge and apologized to the Arizonan government, and the Officer was dismissed.
Battle of Tortuga Channel
The battle of Tortuga channel would be the flashpoint that started the war. After Operation Enduring Democracy, Amfed and France established a Joint Base known as JTB Proto Santo on an island in the Channel. Starting in January 2027, Cuban ships began harassing the base this, eventually escalated into a full-fledged battle on February 4th, resulting in 101 casualties and one frigate sunk on the Cuban side, and 78 casualties on the French-Amfed side.

4/20/27
Both sides were getting most of there water from the local water supply, but to some something was just off about something in the water. Both sides had to call temporary truces as many soldiers were getting sick and for the first time there seemed to be almost a calm breeze but only for a little while. Scientists from both sides were allowed to grab samples of the water to figure out what was wrong.
5/9/27
After 19 days which was the longest time of no fighting throughout the entire war, it suddenly stopped when fighting started back up. The sick suddenly rose up from there ill feelings and began thrashing and yelling and running out their basecamps.
5/12/27
These sick began attacking the other side without their guns or any equipment, they would attack anybody including their own side by just charging at them. Whenever they'd attack someone they'd try to bite their victim as if they had become infected by rabies. Many civilians and soldiers were infected and began attacking anything living irrationally.
5/19/27
Scientists from both sides had found some kind of mysterious contagion in the water that was thought to be planted in the water supply. Both sides agreed to quarantine the whole of Boston. They had to make sure this didn't spread. They later agreed to bomb parts of the city with large gatherings of infected.

The operation was divided into several sub-operations Operation Cannibal would be a strategic bomber campaign against major Canadian cities. Operation Harvest would target air bases, Operation Early Bird would target fuel storage sites, and Operation Rough Seas would target Naval Bases. The campaign would last a week with varied results, Cannibal would mostly be a failure with the expectation of a 5/26/27 raid on Montreal, Harvest was able to damage many air bases, but overall Canadian air defenses were not weakened in any major way, Early Bird was the most successful with 36 fuel storage sites, and 15 oil refines destroyed, Rough Seas while they were able to do quite a bit of damage including damaging an Aircraft Carrier and sinking 1/3 of Canadas Submarine fleet, the units assigned to it suffered heavy casualties.

Following the air campaign, the Federation was ready to launch its counterattack on the ground. The offensive would begin with Operation Eagle Dawn on 5/29/27 when the 15th mechanized brigade(better known as the Crazy 15th) took back the Air Force Academy in Syracuse.
5/30/27-6/5/27
However, the main offensive would begin on 5/30/27 when the Federation Launched Operations Last Chance & Varisty. Operation Last Chance was a naval invasion across Lake Michigan, it would be very successful as the Canadian National people's army was caught off guard, not because they weren't expecting an assault, they just didn't know it was coming from the lake. The Federation was able to push almost entry out of Michigan, but Canada rallied, and the offensive was stooped after the Federation lost the Battle of Flint on 6/2/27, falling just short of Detroit.

10/31/27
The battle of Milwaukee was a turning confrontation breaking the amfed's winning streak causing a morale dip in the already tiring amfed population. The new young recruits of the National people's army were able to out pace the amfed army presenting a threat that would prove this war was far from over.
11/20/27

The First Battles:PCC Front
2/14/27-3/1/27
Just like Amfed, the USR also prepared their defenses for an assault, and on Valentine's day, the day came. Despite their preparations, they were overwhelmed by the sheer number of attackers and had to retreat. One major battle that happened was the battle of the Tennesse valley, where the USR 12th infantry regiment fought a rear guard action against advancing PCC forces. while they were able to inflict significant casualties on PCC by blowing up an ammunition factory in the area, the 12th regiment was almost completely destroyed.
Similar to the USR, Arizona was overwhelmed by the sheer number of troops and was quickly pushed to Tuscon-Flagstaff Defense Line in a few days, but here is where the PCC advance would stop as they were unable to penetrate further due to the heavy defenses.
At this time, an Arizonan pilot called, Timothy Brown became known as the Ghost for shooting down 9 PCC aircraft in 54 hours, as a result, he became a poster boy for the combined Democratic Alliance air forces.

In Tennessee, the battle of Chattooga was still raging with no end in sight, and the front overall remained at a stalemate following the failure of the Nashville Offensive. In Arizona, it was a similar case of a stalemate, though the Ghost was continuing to rack up kills, with his amount of kills now at 49 only about 2 months in. Overall it was a stalemate across the front for the next few months.

12/26/27-12/28/27
The Liberation of Atlanta would be fast, despite being caught off guard the PCC put up heavy resistance but had to retreat on the 27th due to losing air support over the city. Up north, Operation Bunker Shot would be a success, with Canadian forces retreating on the 28th and the forces trapped being saved.
The Arizona front
8/4/27
At the beginning of the war making it's way to the west coast, the PCC cut off all supply routes from the main east coast amfed to California. This left Arizona and California all alone, but California was a very large a industrial area purposefully made to sustain itself so it would not be a walk in the park.
8/5/27-21/1/27
On the 5th, PCC forces would break through and take the capital and push Amfed forces to the Colorado River before being stopped after losing the Battle of Yuma on the 11th.
However, elsewhere the 1st,8th, and 12th Infantry Brigades of the Arizonan National Guard as well as the 4th Artillery Regiment were trapped in Tuscon, and despite the PCC's best efforts, they could not defeat the forces there who were supplied by air.

Ensembled in Santiago Chile during the Chilean civil war an elite army of soldiers receiving the greatest training known to mankind. this elite group of soldiers known as призрачный полк or ghost regiment were created to help latin America against imperialism.
On June 1st members of the ghost regiment would land by parachute in cuba and within 6 days completely drive out the invaders with coordinated attacks on barracks, high ranking military officials, weapons deliveries and food supply runs. even entire dockyards of ships. This would leave the any soldiers of the joint amfed-USR armies left stranded, hungry, scared and without ammo. This perfect opportunity was taken advantage of by the cuban revolutionary army who took back Havana and the rest of the island including Guantanamo in a day.
A surviving amfed soldiers reports back to the mainland and says he heard one of the ghost regiment soldiers speak Russian. This proved to frighten the amfed military command as the Soviet union who had been obliterating their European allies was now in the Americas.
South America Front
Africa Front
the War in Botswana
WW3 would effect Africa very little as without colonialism their was no reason for them to join I'm the fighting unless attacked first. But thir was one part that would join, that was southern Africa.

Botswana was the only western ally in all of Africa and the only non-communist in a very communist southern Africa, this led it to not be very well liked by its neighbors south Africa, Angola, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Mozambique who have been planning to attack them ever since they first allied with the west. This Alliance would invade Botswana on may the 9th 2027.

After the War
U.A.D Formed
After the war ended, they would be a prevailing sense of bitterness in Amfed and the USR. In Amfed, this was only exacerbated by California leaving the Federation in 2035. Taking Advantage of this, the Unification Movement would rise to popularity, led by war hero Beau Biden taking Power in Amfed in 2038 and the USR in 2040, and 2042, the USR and Amfed would merge and become the United American Directorate.
U.A.Ds Early Years
The UAD would prove to be a Single Party dictatorship under the rule of the American Unity Party. It would stop all remaking reparation payments and claim all of the former United States as well as beef up the military significantly. It would restart the Marsshot project which was stopped at the outbreak of WW3 and have a 3-way space race with the Soviets and Lowe Aerospace(a British company) to get the first man on mars. To the shock of many they would win beating the soviets by an hour on 6/2/52.
The Blue Men
The Blue Men were a group of French nationalists who were angry at Frances's defeat during WW3 and Began a 20-year campaign of terrorism across the Communist Bloc. Notable incidents would Include the Leningrad University Bombing in 2037[5], The Shanghai Missile attacks in 2044[6], and the attempted nuking of Moscow in 2051. They were finally stopped in 2056 when there HQ in Strasbourg was raided by police and most of there members were arrested.
Canada's recovery
After taking alot of damage after WW3 and losing one of their most populated cities the CPR didn't seem in the best of shape, but a blessing came in the form of Alaska. After the annexation of Alaska many of the natural resources in Alaska were harvested and used to benefit the entire country and they even discovered a new mineral called Meiosassite.[7] all this led to another massive growth not seen since the 1960s and would start another golden age in the 2040s for the CPR. This growth was Big enough to create a new massive city called New Toronto.
The Warsaw-British Troubles
After the war Although losing to Britain the Warsaw-pact was the greater winner of WW3 and demanded a reparation of 100 billion pound sterling but the British refused. This led to the British navy shelling heligoland. This being seen as an act of war the Warsaw-pact prepared to start fighting again but an agreement was settled to pay for the damages and some more. But the USSR still claimed the UK had a dept of 99.5 billion now.
Havana Drone Incident
In 2049 a Squadron of SA-111 Raven Drone fighters based at Key West Air Force Base would go rogue and begin attacking all manned aircraft. The rouge drones would fly to Havana and begin to hack into the Havana International Communication Center while why they were hacking is unknown it is believed that they wanted to activate other drones and turn them rouge as well. Recognizing this as a massive threat the UAD and Cuban air forces would scramble fighters and engage the drones shooting them all down just two minutes before they could breach the firewall. After this, the use of AI was banned in war to prevent future incidents.
London Treaty Organization
In the Aftermath of World War Three, the Democratic Alliance would be reorganized into the London Treaty Organization. The Members would be:
- United American Directorate
- Desert
- United Kingdom
- South France
- South Italy
- Portugal
- Spain
- Norway
- Mexico
- Brazil
- Thailand
- Australia
As noted by most, unlike the Democratic Alliance, which had a Liberal Democratic Character the LTO would have a more Ultranationalist Character. This Caused New Zealand to not join the New Alliance as it retreated into Isolationism as one of the last Bastions of Liberal democracy along with California.
