Eastern countries like Russia, China and of course North Korea invest a lot of money in armament. You see North Korea who invest almost all money into armamament.
So I think, if WW3 would happen, East would win. Remember how Napoleon and Hitler ended when they tried to defeat Russia
Really hard to say who will win, but in war we all lose. All is affected like economy,jobs food,investment,business etc. It causes more hate,poverty,inequalities and sufferings among the nations affected. Hope this atrocities will be stop and we all be helping each other. Peace!
Well the guys who are at the topmost of the ladder would benefit. Those who are rich will only get more rich. And those in the higher ranks in the government will also benefit.
It is not that simple. Chaos and anarchy will follow the start of WW3. The billionaires and the oligarchs will lose most of their immovable assets. And they will be forced to barter most of their liquid assets for medicine, water and food.
