If World War 3 happens it would be the end of many, if not all. The fact that nowadays everyone threatens to use their nuclear weapons spells doom. Plus Russia has a system called Dead Hand where, even if we manage to beat them, their nuclear missiles will still launch against the northern hemisphere, you should check it out.
