Most people think World War 3 begins with a giant red button.
They expect political ultimatums, emergency broadcasts, and time to pack a bag.
But that isn't how modern superpowers operate. The next global conflict won't start with a formal declaration of war.
It starts with a glitch.
A single stray missile in the Black Sea. A hacked power grid in Eastern Europe. A false radar blip in Moscow.
Once that first mistake happens, human decision-making is pulled from the equation. Classified military fail-safes take over. And within minutes, millions of lives are erased before the public even gets an alert on their phones.
If the world's greatest superpowers completely annihilate each other...
Who actually inherits the ashes?
