I'm sure this has been done to death, but, what are so probable times that that WW3 could have begun, and between whom?
Obviously the US and USSR, but over what?
I came up with:
- Bay of Pigs invasion successful, USSR declares war to support Castro
- Operation Unthinkable goes ahead
- USSR joins Korean War
- Checkpoint Charlie flashpoint ignites
- NATO intervention in Hungary 1956/Czechoslovakia 1968
- Ukraine and Russia go to war, after a supposed Ukrainian offensive against Crimea
- US and Arab forces intervene against ISIL on the ground in Syria, Putin declares such an action as aggressive against Assad
- North-South Korean diplomatic collapse leads to all out war
