The Great War (Battle for Earth Reloaded)

The Great Galactic War was a war waged between the Terran Empire and its allies against the [][][][][][]. It started when on March 3, 1969, Centrian forces launched a missile at Terran forces, but missed, hitting their ally Algeria in its capital, Algeria. While they claimed it was an accident, many consider that it was probably steered towards Algiers on purpose as the probability that it crashed there was very low. Over 4 million perished that day, including most of the leadership. The remnants of the Algerian High Command ordered the launch of a 25 MT nuclear missile at Rio de Janeiro, killing 5 million, which would be joined by 2 million from the fallout over the next few years.
