Great War

The Great War was a series of global conflicts that began in the 2040s with a worldwide energy crisis leading to the bankruptcy of various nations brought about by a drain on the world's oil and petroleum reserves.

Eventually, the desperation of the various nations of the world led the U.C.A.S and the People's Republic of Asia to begin an all-out war against each other, ensuring the collapse of modern, oil-based, civilisation when nuclear missiles were launched on March 3rd, 2062.

Beginning of the Energy Crisis:
In 2042 it was predicted that the global supply of oil would be exhausted in exactly 30 years in 2072.

Oil Wars:
On October 25th, 2056, U.C.A.S and the People's Republic of Asia began fighting over the Persian Gulf, attempting to clam the last remaining vestiges of petroleum within the Middle East.
