Historical Events

  • February: Construction ceases on the Seneca, in favor of the more traditional, less ambitious Guardian series of large manned combat spacecraft.[1]
The date construction ceased is assumed.
  • Columbus is destroyed by an Econ attack, while in orbit.[2]
Though no date is known, and while this could have occurred on May 1st or anytime after during open hostilities, it is presumed to a factor leading up to the nuclear exchange.
  • By this year (and prior to 01 May), four of the Econ's Akademik Mstislav Keldysh class cruisers are completed.[3]
  • 01 May: The climax of World War Three breaks out when the ECON strikes the NUN states first with nuclear attacks, resulting in the deaths of an estimated 600 million.[4]
  • 03 May: The First, Eighth, and Sixteenth Fleets under New United Nations command carry front-line troops into the Bay of Bengal, and the ECON launches a massive invasion of the North American continent, sending troops and military aircraft southward through Canada. Targets in New England (including Massachusetts), Minnesota, the Rocky Mountains, and the Midwest are hit hard by ECON forces, the U.S. military's defenses along the Canadian border failing utterly. The United States Air Force and United States Army both fight back against the invaders, but lose many fighters and ground soldiers to the enemy.[4]
  • Late May: Certain military units are abandoned in enemy territory during the war, including a New United Nations brigade under the command of Colonel Green in Kashmiristan. Finally, the Eastern Coalition's governing palace is destroyed by American forces, killing ECON general Lee Kuan.

The forces of the Eastern Coalition would eventually prove victorious, defeating the U.S. troops there. During fighting in Paris during the war, the Eiffel Tower was destroyed. Additional combat took place in San Francisco, resulting in the destruction of the Coit Tower, among many other structures.[4]
Time is conjecture.
  • Late Year: The war culminated when several of Earth's governments met in San Francisco to declare a cease-fire, effectively ending the war.[6]
Time is conjecture.
  • All six O'Neil colonies were self-sustaining enough that they all survived the nuclear exchanges of World War Three and the subsequent chaos.[7]
