Chapter 172: Summary report on the world war 7.
Latin America Ever since it got rid of the colonial rule of the Spanish Kingdom in the last century, until the beginning of the war of this decade, Mexico and all the Latin American countries to the south have been playing an insignificant role on the international social stage of our world.
Some Latin American countries that are particularly lucky and farthest away from war, such as Ecuador, have not fought a war for more than a hundred years since independence until the outbreak of World War III.
Although in the past century, some wars have broken out intermittently between countries in Latin America, or they have encountered invasions from countries outside Latin America.
For example, the war between Mexico and the United States and France, the Paraguayan War against Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil, the Saltpeter War between Chile and Peru and Bolivia, and the Chaco War between Paraguay and Bolivia, etc.
However, compared to the rivers of blood and wars in the Old World over the years, Latin America, with so few wars, can be called a paradise of peace and happiness.
The reasons are, first of all, the protection of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans allows Latin American countries to stay away from the wars in the Old Continent; secondly, Latin American countries are relatively weak and have low ambitions.
They are not as ambitious as the United States to develop overseas interests.
As long as they are not subject to They are content with overseas aggression and are not keen on actively sending troops to fight overseas; thirdly, Latin American countries have loose political power and low land development, making it difficult for them to withstand the consumption of high-intensity wars.
Although Brazil took the initiative to follow the United States in declaring war on Nazi Germany and Italy during World War II, except for dispatching a small expeditionary force to accept US command and dispatching some naval ships to participate in the escort of the Atlantic route, its mainland had no How many wars have been affected?
However, in the Third World War that swept all mankind, the continents of Latin American countries were not able to escape the flames of war.
In the early days of World War III, some Latin American countries followed the United States and joined the capitalist camp, while other Latin American countries chose neutrality.
Subsequently, due to the steady retreat of the US military on various overseas fronts, Latin American countries were torn into two camps, pro-American and anti-American, and declared war on each other after taking sides.
However, in fact, from the records of World War III, it is difficult to say that Latin American countries took any decent military actions during the war, or launched any large-scale battles worthy of description.
Because, before their armies had time to actually launch any meaningful military operations, the Latin American countries that were slack in preparations and slow to respond had been turned into radioactive wastelands by the overwhelming US atomic bombs and Soviet atomic bombs: Throughout World War III, Latin American countries withstood a total of 107 U.S. atomic bombs and 2,023 Soviet atomic bombs.
Except for a few small Caribbean island countries that are not worth mentioning, no Latin American country can escape the devastating catastrophe of nuclear war.
At the same time, the abnormally low temperature climate caused by the Icelandic volcanic eruption also caused severe damage to agricultural production in Latin America.
At the end of World War III, the U.S. occupying forces carried out brutal plunder and bloody massacres in Latin American countries, further exacerbating the collapse of social order in the region.
The end of the world has come to the Latin American people.
Hunger, violence and death have since become the main theme of Latin American society.
As of now, except for a few small Caribbean island countries that are not worth mentioning, the entire Latin America is still basically in a state of anarchy and chaos.
This is not to say that there are no governments in Latin America, but that there are too many groups claiming to be governments.
For example, in Bolivia after the nuclear explosion, four governments faced each other.
In post-war Peru, only what is currently known about the situation is that there emerged the Peruvian Justice League, the Peruvian Patriotic Front, the Peruvian Free Federation, the Peruvian National Salvation Government, and the New Inca Empire that ruled the ancient capital of Cusco.
These five have certain powerful local government.
In the desert of northern Mexico, someone calls himself the Aztec Emperor and claims to lead an indigenous army to regain the empire from the whites.
In the Yucatan Peninsula in southern Mexico, there is a voodoo goddess who calls herself the Queen of the Mayans.
In Brazil, at least thirty "revolutionary governments", "provisional governments" and "national salvation governments" have emerged, most of whose leaders are former police officers or gang bosses.
Although the post-war situation in Latin America is dizzying and even interesting.
But in fact, most of these so-called "governments" can only control one province or one city, or even only a few villages, and they often cannot last for a few months before they collapse due to various strange reasons. downfall.
Moreover, these newly established governments generally "the smaller the territory, the bigger the name."
For example, after the members of the British government-in-exile entrenched in the Cayman Islands finally surrendered to the Soviet Red Army and were taken away, the democratically elected autonomous government of the Cayman Islands easily won the status of an independent country.
But then, seemingly dazzled by the joy of independence, the Cayman Islands authorities actually changed its name to the "Government of the Latin American Community" in December 1949.
It seemed that they wanted to follow the example of the Union of South Africa and establish the "Southern Africa" "Community", which took over various colonies of European powers in black Africa and became the first African hegemon, but completely forgot that their Cayman Islands was just an independent country for more than a month, with a permanent population of only more than 10,000, and did not even have a regular army.
This mini island country is really speechless.
However, considering some of the exaggerated nature of Latin American residents, the Cayman Islands authorities’ exaggerated approach of hastily setting up a “Latin American Community Government” probably does not mean that they have really had any unrealistic delusions.
Most of it is just that It's just bragging and self-entertainment.
In general, after experiencing the devastating catastrophe of World War III, Latin America as a whole is estimated to have lost between 100 million and 120 million people, all major cities were destroyed, and industry, agriculture, and transportation were greatly affected.
A huge blow, and politics fell into unprecedented chaos.
However, considering Latin America’s original loose system and low-level economy, the impact of this catastrophe on South American society may not be as serious as imagined. 8.
North America North America, north of Mexico, was one of the two core fortresses of the capitalist world before the war.
It was also an important participant and leader in the second and third world wars, and the place where the third world war finally ended. .
Among them, Canada, as part of the British Empire, passively participated in three world wars.
The United States, which separated from the United Kingdom, took the initiative to participate in three world wars in order to compete for world hegemony.
In the final decisive battle between the two camps of socialism and capitalism, it became a die-hard capitalist force to fight against progress and liberation. the final position.

Therefore, at the end of World War III, North America, which had watched from the other side during the first two world wars, finally suffered the most brutal nuclear attack on the entire planet.
In the last year of World War III, the Soviet Strategic Air Force attacked the United States forty-eight times in total.
Twenty-four thousand and fifty-three atomic bombs of various types were dropped on Canada, and 1,125 atomic bombs were dropped on Canada, with a total yield of about one billion tons, causing devastating effects.
By the time the U.S. government surrendered unconditionally and signed the armistice agreement in the ruins of San Francisco, except for the U.S. capital Washington and the port of Tacoma, Washington State, occupied by the Japanese, all human settlements above the county level in North America north of Mexico were destroyed by atomic bombs and conventional aerial bombs dropped by the Soviet Strategic Air Force.
The destruction and leakage of nuclear weapons industrial plants across the United States has also caused serious nuclear pollution problems.
It is different from the short-term nuclear pollution caused by atomic bomb explosions.
Although the mushroom cloud of nuclear explosions is very scary, the uranium and plutonium in the atomic bombs are basically exploding.
"burned out".
Although there is still a small amount of residue left, it usually only takes a few years for the local environment to basically return to normal under the self-purification effect of nature.
The pollution caused by the leakage of reactors and nuclear fuel is long-term and has not occurred so far.
A safer way to clean up.
In addition, such high-intensity and frequent nuclear explosions, as well as high-temperature heat waves caused by nuclear explosions, have also caused extremely large-scale forest fires in the densely forested northern United States and southern Canada.
Due to the collapse of the government and no one to put out the fire, the forest fires in some areas actually burned from the spring of 1949 to late autumn.
It was not until the first heavy snowfall in the winter of 1949 along with the strong winds that they were basically extinguished. .
Therefore, faced with such an ensuing Song of Ice and Fire, the remaining residents of the North American forest fire scene had just escaped the threat of the blazing fire demon.
Before they had time to secretly rejoice or thank God, they found themselves about to have to fight again.
Facing the cruel fate of being frozen to death by cold snaps and blizzards.
In Texas, an oil-rich state in the southern United States, frequent nuclear explosions and bombings also ignited a large number of local oil wells, oil depots and refineries, triggering serious oil leaks and oil fires.
Currently, at least more than 400 oil and natural gas wellheads have been ignited on fire, burning at least 30,000 tons of crude oil and more than 50,000 cubic meters of natural gas every day, and producing an unprecedented amount of smoke, so much so that during aerial photography by reconnaissance aircraft In the photo, half of Texas seems to be covered in gray-black smoke.
The smoke is so dense that its blocking effect even exceeds that of military smoke bombs.
Since oil well fires have always been difficult to extinguish, the United States, in a state of anarchy, has no ability to organize fire-fighting.
Therefore, the oil fires burning in Texas are bound to continue for a long time, and the smoke produced will make southern Texas and the adjacent northern border of Mexico bleed for a long time.
For a period of time, there was a haze that never dissipated, causing local survivors to suffer from respiratory diseases.
As for how long it will take for the ecological environment in Texas to return to an acceptable state, it seems to be unknown at present.
In other parts of the United States, humans who survived the nuclear explosion faced the threat and test of famine.
Although the United States is known as the chosen country, its food production is extremely abundant.
But if analyzed carefully, the distribution of food production in the United States is still unbalanced.
The Great Lakes coast and the Mississippi River Basin are the most important food-producing areas in the United States, while many states in arid and semi-arid areas in the west need to import food from other agricultural states.
However, with the collapse and paralysis of transportation in the United States caused by a comprehensive nuclear strike, large-scale long-distance transportation of agricultural products has become an impossible task.
In fact, before the end of World War III and the unconditional surrender of the United States, the U.S. government had already lost its ability to allocate domestic resources as domestic transportation collapsed.
Shortly after the war officially ended, the federal capital Washington was reduced to ruins amid looting by armed bandits.
At this point, except for the Port of Tacoma, Washington State, which was occupied by the Japanese army, there was still a little order.
The entire United States and Canada have completely entered anarchy.
The social outlook has basically regressed back to the colonial era before the Industrial Revolution.
In many aspects, it is even better than that era.
Even worse.
In addition, although the abnormally low temperature climate caused by the Icelandic volcanic eruption has now come to an end, due to the collapse of the industrial base and the disintegration of social order, the remaining farmers in the central states of the United States have fallen into a situation without fertilizers, pesticides, or food.
In the Dark Ages, when improved seeds and water conservancy and irrigation facilities were destroyed, and even safety was not guaranteed, an avalanche of food production and the spread of famine for a long period of time were a foregone conclusion.
However, even in such a hopeless, dilapidated and decadent radioactive wasteland, various ambitious political and military groups still emerged, fighting for power with each other under their own banners.
Among them, the indigenous Indians in the United States were driven to Indian reservations in the wilderness, far away from big cities and prosperous areas.
Instead, they basically preserved their strength completely despite the blanket nuclear strikes of the Soviet Strategic Air Force.
After the war ended and the nuclear strikes stopped, some Indian chiefs led their tribes out of the reservation areas and seized the pastures, farms and warehouses that had not been destroyed from the whites.
They even went further and tried to fight against the turmoil of the collapse of the federation.
A country of its own.
For example, in the remote mountainous areas of the southwestern United States, the Navajo people, famous for producing the "Wind Talkers", declared the establishment of the Navajo Republic and circled the land of three states on the map.

In the northern part of the Great Lakes, the Indians who came out of the reservation areas raised the battle flag of the Iroquois Confederacy, attacked white refugees in small boats, and declared in mimeographed leaflets and radio broadcasts "to take back the rights of their ancestors from the white people." land".
At the same time, after discovering that the country had fallen into a power vacuum, black Americans were not to be outdone.
They established the "Mississippi Freedom Commune" in the countryside of Mississippi, the Black Panther Party in Georgia, and a series of other armed groups.
North America after the White War.
In order to further divide the United States and frustrate or at least delay the recovery of this Chosen Country, according to the Kremlin's instructions, "GRU" agents have secretly provided a certain amount of ordnance, ammunition and living supplies to these armed groups of color. , and also dispatched military advisers to guide the operation.
On the other hand, in the face of massive counterattacks by people of color, the remaining white Americans are also resisting desperately.
In the southern states of the eastern United States, the old terrorist organization the Ku Klux Klan has resurrected and has re-raised the Confederate battle flag from the Civil War era, claiming to restore the Confederate States of America.
In the northern states of the eastern United States, a white armed group called the Brotherhood of Steel appeared, trying to establish a new regime on the wasteland of the nuclear explosion.
In addition, Lyndon Baines Johnson, the last owner of the White House and the last acting president of the federal government, after escaping from Washington, which was burned down by thugs, managed to get three merchant ships and a gunboat, and evacuated all the way out of North America.
Mainland, arrived at the southeastern edge of the Caribbean Sea, the U.S. colony of Puerto Rico, which luckily did not suffer a nuclear explosion.
Then, President Johnson and his followers re-erected the flag of the United States of America here, claiming to be the orthodox successors of the federal government, and made wild remarks on the radio, demanding that all domestic forces obey his leadership and command.
Since Puerto Rico is no longer part of the United States, but has always been under the rule of the U.S. government, it cannot be considered a foreign country.
Considering that the name of the government-in-exile is not good, President Johnson called himself the Enclave, which means enclave government, and the troops under his command were also called the Enclave.
Called the Enclave Army.
In addition, in the ruins of San Francisco where the U.S.
Unconditional Surrender Agreement was signed, Captain John F.
Kennedy, who had participated in the ceremony as a representative of the U.S.
Navy, also announced the establishment of the New California Republic with a group of subordinates he gathered from who knows where.
President of the Republic of California However, based on the aerial photos taken by a reconnaissance plane in the area, it seems more appropriate to call him the mayor of the town.
Then, Captain George Bush, who had participated in the unconditional surrender ceremony in San Francisco as a representative of the U.S.
Air Force, also came to Texas, occupied a small area of land, and declared the establishment of the New Republic of Texas, also proclaiming himself For the President of Texas.
Although according to the detailed information that has been obtained so far, whether it is the New California Republic on the west coast or the New Texas Republic on the east coast, their actual territory is only equivalent to a small town.
However, because the leaders of the two parties, Captain Kennedy and Captain Bush, somehow owned high-power radio stations, they used exaggerated propaganda to create a certain illusion of power between President Johnson, President Kennedy, and President Bush.
Chatting over the air became the most widely known news channel in postwar America.
In general, North America, which once had a population of 150 million at its peak, after the war, even according to the most optimistic estimates, the remaining population in the entire territory will not exceed 30 million, which is not as good as before the war. of any of the major European powers.
Moreover, after losing 120 to 130 million people in a short period of time, the balance of power among various ethnic groups and races in North America has been broken, and the divisions and confrontations between different ethnic groups have greatly intensified.
The national cohesion of the unification period has almost completely disappeared, and violence and death are about to become the main theme of North America's next stage.
Conclusion As the longest, bloodiest and most costly global war in human history, in the two world wars that have just ended, almost the entire world's population has been involved in the flames of war, and the battlefields have covered all parts of the world except Antarctica.
It has resulted in the deaths of approximately one billion people and the homelessness of tens of millions of refugees across the continents inhabited by humans.
In addition, these ten years of war have also brought unprecedented subversive impacts to human civilization and society on the entire earth.
Even after the war ended, many extremely serious social and environmental crises remained around the world.
The catastrophe, destruction and changes that these ten years of war brought to the world may only be barely comparable to the Mongolian Western Expedition seven hundred years ago.
However, although these ten years of war have brought such tragic disasters and nightmares to mankind, in every progress and change of human society, blood and fire are also indispensable, and the necessary price has to be paid. .
In short, through these two earth-shaking world wars, the decadent old capitalist system was basically buried on a global scale, and the dawn of a new era has arrived among the ruins of the world wars.
There is reason to believe that with the joint efforts of working people all over the world and relying on advanced institutional advantages, the human world will be able to quickly recover from the ruins after the war, and the proletariat that has been established in most places around the world will also follow suit. be consolidated and prospered.
These two ensuing global wars are not only painful lessons for all mankind, but also the only way for human society to move towards a bright future.
Note: Due to the rush of time, it was only half a year after the end of the war, and various survey and statistical work had just begun.
Some of the figures presented in this report are likely to be inaccurate, and may even contain large-scale errors and omissions.
Because the Committee currently only obtains relatively accurate and reliable statistical data from countries in continental Europe.
The data provided by East Asian countries are relatively unreliable and even conflict with each other.
As for the data in anarchic regions such as the Americas and South Asia, they can only rely on estimates and speculations to a large extent, and the accuracy cannot be overestimated.
Moreover, during these two protracted world wars, large-scale population movements of more than one million people occurred many times around the world, which further increased the difficulty of statistics.
For example, before and after World War II, more than four million Europeans fled to the United States.
During World War III, another two to three million Italians, French and Spanish people followed the retreating American and British Allied forces and fled from their European homes to North Africa, then from North Africa to West Asia, and then from West Asia to Black Africa, and then He fled from black Africa to the United States, and finally fled from the United States to South Africa again.
Every time they flee, the number of refugees will be greatly reduced, but more people will join the fleeing team halfway, making it difficult to make accurate statistics afterwards.

There is a similar phenomenon in East Asia.
For example, the leader of the Chinese bourgeois reactionary government, Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, and his followers fled from China to the United States with about 500,000 to 1 million people on the eve and early days of the Third World War. , and then fled from the United States to Africa at the end of World War III.
After the war, Chairman Chiang himself hung up a sign of the Chinese National Government in Exile on his pasture on the edge of the Namibian desert, and led his family to make a living by herding cattle.
Many of his followers died in the process of fleeing thousands of miles, and many of his followers died.
Living Chinese exiles are also scattered all over the world.
Which region should these cross-continental migrants be classified into for statistics is really a vexing problem.
There is also the leader of the Japanese puppet government supported by the invading US military, former Japanese army general Mutaguchi Renya, who also led many Japanese pro-American elements and followed the retreating US troops into exile from Japan to the United States.
Next, some of the Japanese exiles fled from the United States to South Africa.
Currently, Mutaguchi Renya is living on the streets of Johannesburg, making a living by shining shoes for others, but he still wears a large medal on his chest, calls himself the Prime Minister of Japan, and hangs a sign on his shoe shine stall saying "Japanese Government in Exile" "The brand seems to have the talent of a comedian.
Due to the existence and frequent occurrence of these large-scale intercontinental population flows, there are bound to be a large number of repeated statistics and statistical omissions in the various population data cited in this report.
It seems that this problem cannot be solved for the time being before further accurate investigation is carried out.
Thank you for your understanding. oshow7:
