World War III or the Third World War, often abbreviated as WWIII or WW3 and also commonly referred to as the War of 2008, the Last Great War or most notably as Judgement Day, was a global conflict that took place mainly during August 9-10, 2008. It was fought primarily between the US and NATO against Russia & the CSTO.
It is generally accepted by most historians that the war began as a result of Russia's invasion of Georgia & the Black Sea Incident that happened on August 9, 2008, resulting in the US retaliating with nuclear weapons. The Americans first responded by destroying targets all across European Russia to hamper its ability to retaliate. Minutes before, the Russian retailed by attacking important civilian & military targets. By 5 AM on August 10, the war was over, as both sides had collapsed by then.
