Additional information about the prime factions in World War III

The Alliance of Democratic Nations

Commonly known as the Allies, they consisted of Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Spain, and a number of other western and northern European nations.
Formed to defend Europe against the tyranny of the Soviet Union, the Allies ground units consisted of small, guerilla style units and mid-level armor units. The naval power of the Allies was incredible however, as it was based primarily off of the awesome fleets of Britain and Scandinavia. However, the Soviets managed to steal the submarine designs when they captured Berlin, and sub technology gave them a slight balance.
It has been recently disclosed that the United States did supply the Allies with some technology during the war, such as the Apache Longbow and the M1 tank which the Allies dubbed the "Medium Tank". The battles of Great World War II were intense. Many a time the Allies were heavily out gunned and outnumbered. But several highly skilled Allied commanders held through with superior tactics, guerilla style warfare and sabotage missions. Some of the more famous battles were the rescues of Einstein and of Tanya Adams (a female, civilian, guerilla expert who defined the way commandos work today), the collapse of Germany and Greece, the defending of the first operational Chronosphere prototype and finally the attack on Moscow itself.
After the defeat of the Soviet Union, leaders of the Allied nations and the Soviet Union met at the United Nations Headquarters in New York to write a peace treaty.
The first condition was that the Soviet Union must be dissolved back into the nations it was before the Russian Revolution known as "Red October".
The next was the destruction of the communist party and the execution of the high military officers and political officials that were still alive. Only one, supposedly Stalin's personal advisor, was unaccounted for. The only records that proved he existed were some documents and records signed by Stalin himself addressing to a man called "Kane".
The third condition was that all military technology be turned over to the Allies and the UN. Fanatical Russian nationalists destroyed some of the high-level technology of the Soviet Union, chiefly the Heavy and Mammoth Tank construction techniques.
The fourth condition was that Russia itself would, for ten years, be under total control of the UN. After those ten years Russia would regain self-rule but had to act in accordance with the UN until the year 2000. Russian leaders eagerly accepted the treaty, as resisting it would mean the disbanding of Russia itself and the placing of the remnants at the hands of Allied nations that still bore grudges.
The UN was slow to bring the world the defense force it had promised in The Great World War II, so the Alliance stayed active and made the agreement with the UN to disband only when the UN stated its world task force. The UN found this as a fair compromise, and the Alliance (similar to NATO except used more often) remained as the unofficial "protectors" of the planet. However, when The Brotherhood of Nod violently appeared in the early 1990'ies with members of all thinkable nationalities, it was recognized that it was politically too dangerous for a European based military organization to directly interfere with Nod activities. Thus the UN decided to finish their efforts and wrote the UNGDA.
The Allies dissolved, replaced by the Global Defense Initiative on October 12, 1995.

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics

When the Soviet Union was first created in 1922, many western countries feared it because of the anti-capitalistic propaganda it fed to the easily influenced masses. The same year the Treaty of Rapallo was reformed to help secure the Soviet Union and to restrengthen Germany after its devastation during the first World War.
Things went relatively well, but there was notion of a new political movement in Germany, which was known as the National Socialistic party or Nazi party. This German political movement was highly nationalistic and highly anti-communist, which gained them a great number of supporters among the German population and the sympathies of the Catholic Church, which regarded the Nazi's as defenders of the faith against the increasing influence of the Godless communists. However, due to a series of violent acts against Jewish German civilians and due to regular internal conflicts, the Nazi party fell apart around 1926 due to the lack of efficient organization and a leading figure capable of unifying them and their ideas.
After the collapse of the Nazi party, Germany became much more democratic, and relations with the rest of western Europe had improved greatly. However, with the Nazi's officially disbanding, one of their members proclaimed through the media that he suspected communist infiltration to be the main reason for their breakdown. Because of this politically sensitive statement, tensions began to arise between Germany and the Soviet Union. Eventually, the diplomatic relations between the two nations soured and the Treaty of Rapallo was repealed.
With the rebuilding of Germany, and the already powerful Britain and France, the United States decided to launch a global program to act as the sovereign voice on major matters. The nations of Western Europe and North America also welcomed the communists to join, mainly because it was an attempt to unify the world. Stalin and other communist leaders decided to observe to see what the UN was really about. The communists were initially pleased to see actual attempts to stop world problems like the offset of the ecosystem. But nothing could stop the total breakdown between German and Soviet relations that was already happening.
The Soviet Union was shocked by Germany's turning away. It was also offended by the repeal of the Treaty of Rapallo. Soviet political leaders threatened military action against Germany if it did not formally apologize to the Soviet Union and allow Com-Intern (Communist International Party) to be allowed in the country again. Germany agreed to the apology, but it realized Com-Intern was essentially a Soviet political platform designed to dislocate capitalistic countries, so the allowance of any communist or socialist party in Germany itself was absolutely refused. When the Soviets appeared true to their warning and began to mobilize, the other Western European nations reacted by forming the Alliance of Democratic Nations, a military junta similar to the NATO that stated if a non-European aggressor attacked one nation, all would fight together.
The Allies warned the Soviets to stand down so a peaceful settlement could be arranged. Stalin, however, was too enraged at Germany and kept pushing towards it. When the Soviets finally invaded Poland and started moving further west into Europe, all nations in the Alliance declared war on the Soviet Union.
The Great World War II had begun.
The Soviets' technology was more brute force than finesse. Although they did manage to build submarines, that technology, like their V2 rockets, were originally German designs. The Soviet Union managed to capture that technology before the Allies could even build the first prototypes. Their own Tesla Coil and Mammoth Tank were further proof of this. For the first half of the war, the Reds were on the offensive, attacking Eastern Europe with fourteen tank divisions, while the Allies only had three divisions mobilized. With such a small force for defense, the important countries of Germany and Greece were easy targets for the Soviet Union.

Guerilla fighting still raged all throughout Greece, with MiG bombers destroying much of Athens, including the Acropolis, to be replaced by Soviet structures when appropriate forces arrived.
Meanwhile, the battle was taken to the Aegean Sea, where the Allied naval forces dealt a major blow to the Soviet's high tech Iron Curtain project. The war entered an extremely critical stage when a high ranking Soviet officer who disagreed with Stalin's nuclear policies defected to the Alliance and revealed that at least four 500 kiloton nuclear warheads were in production and were to be used against the major cities of Europe, including London and Paris. A strike team was sent in an attempt to shut down the Soviet Nuclear program, but failed. The warheads were operational and were launched from Leningrad (currently St. Petersburg) from the Central Command at the Kremlin.

In an operation that made the history books, a team of "special volunteers" under the command of a female commando called Tanya Adams infiltrated the nuclear production facilities and managed to disarm the warheads while in mid-flight towards their targets. The warheads crashed down on the surface of the targeted cities and were destroyed during the impact, never detonating. The Alliance made it through its darkest hour alive.
"If those bombs had gone of... well, let's just say that those of us left would all be learning how to speak Russian just about now".
 - Gunther Von Esling, 1954
After word got out that the Soviet Union attempted a quadruple nuclear strike at Europe, the United Nations and thus the other major powers in the world came out of their "neutral" chairs.
Recognizing the near heroism of the Allied forces in protecting Europe from an overwhelmingly powerful and aggressive adversary and recognizing the immense danger that the Soviet Union had become to the free world, the United States of America, India and Japan joined the war. This fact, combined with Allied success in halting both Soviet superweapon projects, and their own Chronosphere device fully operational, the Alliance knew that the time had finally come to commence a major offensive into the USSR. Alliance warships, under the command of the British Royal Navy, began pushing up the major waterways like the Volga river.
Backed by UN reinforcements, Allied forces began retaking Germany, Greece, Turkey, Poland, and started moving into Russia itself. Allied Supreme Commander General Von Esling used blitzkrieg warfare to slice through the western blockade. During the onslaught, the Soviets managed to get the Iron Curtain technology back online in a last ditch attempt to push the Allies back. Unfortunately for them, their Leningrad research installation and all plans for the Iron Curtain were destroyed.
Soon the Allies were knocking on Stalin's front door, and even the last operational Iron Curtain device wasn't enough to stop the Alliance. Soon Moscow flew the Alliance flag, and in the rubble, the Allied troops discovered the body of Stalin, gagged and buried. Apparently he might have lived, but someone else got to him first and strangled him. No one knew who was responsible for Stalin's death until none other than Allied Colonel Nikos Stavros admitted to it over twenty years later.
Also on the Allied agenda of investigation was the discrepancy of the record of a man named Kane, apparently Stalin's most trusted advisor. His body was never found, but it wasn't until the next generation of people would we know why...

Known Facts About the USSR

Ratified: Officially created in 1922 by the Communist Party in Russia.
Disbanded: At the end of the Great World War II, during the Treaty of New York, which split the Soviet Union into Russia, Ukraine, Byelorussia, and other independent states.
Ideology: According to Stalin, the birthright of the Soviet Empire was nothing less than conquering and dominating the entire globe.
And the birthright of Josef Stalin himself was nothing less than conquering the spirit and dominating the actions of every Soviet citizen.
Head of State During GWWII: Josef Stalin.
Former Base of Operations: Entire Euro-Asian peninsula command posts identified in Moscow, Kiev, Stalingrad, Khartoum, Karachi and Da Nang.
Former Military Strength: Enlisted forces exceed 14 million. Non-regular forces, including police and NKVD, about 7 million. [Records listed are statistics taken before the war.]
Former Economic Strength: Considerable operating assets believed to be in excess of 486.2 billion Swiss francs. [Records listed are statistics taken before the war.]
Former Political Strength: Because every single person in the Soviet Union was a member of the Communist Party, an incredible agent network of over 200 million citizens infiltrated the governments of most Pan African, Pan Indian and Pan Asian governments with suspected strongholds in Mexico City and Vancouver. The Socialist/Communist subversions of those countries were a primary political strength as it turned many a country away from the Alliance. The efforts of achieving worldwide communism were controlled by the Communist International party, commonly known as Com Intern.
