World War III (FW)

World War III, or the Third World War (WW3, WWIII) is a global military conflict lasting from April 2009 to present. This, section for section, has involved many of the world's nations. In some of the sections, some nations were allied, and in others opposed each other/remained neutral, thus making World War III unique from World Wars I and II. The war was considered to have begun on January 11th, with the 2010 Yarphese War, however, earlier conflicts, like the Everett-Russia War have also played roles.

The main players in this war, are the Grand Yarphese Republic, which is usually on one side, the Allied States, United States, Union of Everett, Cascadia, United Kingdom, and the Franco-German Commonwealth, which are usually, but not limited to, being allied with each other.
