Nukes changed warfare, wars are fought differently these days.

Nukes changed nothing and ill tell you why. EVERYONE DIES. They are basically pointless bcoz noone would be so stupid to drop a nuke and then incur a retaliatory strike or two or three.

End of world scenario is unrealistic but chemical warfare, mass bombings (iraq/afghanistan) and other smaller means are certainly possible.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

One of the great things about capitalism is that people would rather sell things to each other than fight, and that's coming from a socialist.

Also, it is very difficult for democracies to fight each other (the only one I can think of is the American Civil War, and its a stretch calling the South a democracy with less than 20% of the population being able to vote).  With the world as democratic as it is right now, I have a hard time seeing another World War unless a lot of social change happens.

Various greek wars, American Indian Wars, Spanish American Wars, Anglo American war, Franco Roman war, Finland fought for the Nazis in WW2, Indian Pakistan wars....


Democracies go to war with each other a fair amount.  It just depends on the people.  Democracies tend to go to war less because Democracies and capitalist socities tend to have better economic growth and less need to go to war.
