Story
At first it was a decade of relative peace, the USA still isolated, the GLA thought destroyed, and China still controlled Europe, until the GLA struck.

In the ensuring years, unbeknownst to the Chinese, the GLA gathered their strength in secret, their leaders having faked their death and taken fake identities. And on the eve of the GLAs defeat almost every capital in Europe, Asia, and America was blasted by a dirty bomb. And in the chaos the GLA emerged, devastating Europe, Asia, and the Americas. This event had reawakened the USA, who had rebuilt itself in the ensuing years, and gave China a rude awakening. And both began doing damage control. Another decade of war followed as both superpowers tried to stop the terrorist group, who were more prepared then they expected. But in the end a stalemate came.

Due to the damages, from the GLA attack and the ensuing battle, many smaller nations were annexed by the two superpowers. Now consisting of the Pan-pacific alliance, consisting of china controlling Russia, eastern Europe, Korea, Japan, and all of southeast Asia. The American alliance, with Canada, Mexico, and most of Europe now working under the USA. And the GLA, now a superpower with control of all of Africa, the middle east, Israel, Cuba, and half of south America. Now all three superpowers ready themselves for the coming war.
