World War III

World War III was started in the year 2100, well technically it started much earlier, perhaps in the year 2015. Accumulating tension between countries with weapons of mass destruction was slowly building up in the first 90 years of the 21st Century, but in the last ten years it grew rapidly because of two major world powers threatening to destroy each other for one reason or another.

Origins
According to Wolf, the war started in the last 60 seconds of the year 2099, on New Years Eve. The first world power, known now only as Power X, launched one of their plans to destroy the second world power, known as Power Y. The news spread like wildfire and the counter-attack by Power Y was soon carried out too. Unfortunately, the counter-attack failed and the first mass destruction was imminent. Power Y took a huge hit. All allied nations of Power Y came down on Power X hard. Power X was even worse hit. This started the war, sometimes known as "The War of Green Flames", even though no incendiary weapons were ever used (apparently).

Main Events
The war lasted for only 1 year, and in that time the human race managed to wipe out itself and all other life on the planet, apart from a few creatures in the deepest part of the Pacific Ocean, where biological weapons cannot reach. The only reason biological weapons were able to be involved in the war is because in the third month of the war, the Geneva Convention was scrapped and the world went all out.

Aftermath
Wolf managed to save a portion of lesser-damaged humans. These included Dave and Alex. They fled the planet to the new planet, already planned by Wolf: Utopia.
