World War III (The Era of Relative Peace)

World War III, also called the Third World War, WWIII, or WW3, was a global conflict that lasted from 1989-1991. The war was fought between the capitalistic and democratic West like the United States of America, the United Kingdom, NATO, and their allies against the Communist states of the East such as the Soviet Union, People's Republic of China, North Korea, Cuba, and the Warsaw Pact member states after the Cold War finally turned hot. Despite lasting only two years, the war was the deadliest conflict in human history, with over a 110-120 million dead, both soldiers and civilians alike.
