If Austrailia, America and europe all went to war.....?

Question

Who would win? all pitted against each other I mean.

yeah, but only HALF of Russia is in Europe, afetr the Siberian plains it's Asia.

Nephilim, thanks for that, I didn't say that they were countries did I? And if we are going to be that picky, then America is also not a country, but a continent, though that's what we commonly call the COUNTRY the USA anyway.

Answer 1

Australia is as big as the US on a map, but there are only 20m Australians, compared with 300m Americans and 500m people in the European Union (a supranational and intergovernmental union of 27 democratic member states of Europe - the states who are best in Europe at co-operating with one another).

So, it's US v EU. The US spends more on defence (a.k.a. WAR) than all of Europe, Russia and China (!) put together, so they've got the better arsenal. But we have twice as many people....if you include Russia (half of which is geographically in Europe, even if politically they're very distant) then we've got tonnnns more potential soldiers. In a conventional war, it would be near-impossible to defeat an enemy that numbers more than half a billion. In a nuclear war, we're all fooked anyway (the US, UK, France and Russia all have nuclear weapons, so there would be devastation on both sides).

Answer 2

Questioner, you are wrong on several counts. (1) You automatically presuppose that an "Alliance" system a la the First World War is in place. Thus, you imagine that if the United States went to war with the PRC, that Israel would step in as well. Such notions are fantasy; they ignore the realities that sovereign nations place their national interests first, and democracies are answerable to their electorates. On top of that, none of the alliances you mentioned for either the American or Chinese side make sense, save the US-Japan one, as there is a mutual defense pact already in place with both. (2) You are assuming that Taiwan would be the flashpoint rather than North Korea. In such an instance, non-intervention from other nations would be far more likely (beyond the level of protests, of course) since the whole PRC-Taiwan affair is an "internal matter". The PLA has been prepositioning troops and munitions for years preparing for an invasion of Taiwan. Given an absence of the 7th Fleet from the region, the PLA would easily hold the upper hand. (3) China' is still run by the CCP; if necessary, they have the discipline and the means to enforce a wartime command economy rather quickly. The Chinese are also used to privations that the American public cannot possibly fathom when it comes to making sacrifices during wartime. The greater loss would come from those Japanese and Western businesses who maintain research facilities and manufacturing capability in China proper to take advantage of cheap labor and easier access to the Chinese market; such infrastructure would be no doubt rapidly seized by the PRC and prove a means to increase the capabilities of a war economy, or at the very least prove useful leverage against multinational corporations. War is never a given. War is more accident than design, and plotting a collision course between the PRC and the United States solely on the basis that the two should fight is nothing short of fantasy.

Answer 3

Australia is a total looser. The whole continent will be devastated in a day or two by American. But America can't stand Europe since Europe has more countries, their weaponry combined altogether will match those of American.
Long live Europe!! Rest in Pieces Australia!!

Answer 4

I would say : "I would be the winner"

I would start by conquering Africa since it's not a very developped country military speaking, then cross the ocean to South America and start by attaking Brazil.

Once it is over go up and burn North America to ashes. Then from 2 sides I would attack Europe. One attack from Africa in the south and one from the north from America.

Once Europe is devastated, I would move east and take all the former Soviet countries and head toward Asia. My final move is when my annemi can't move anymore and is cornered in Oceania. That's weh nI strike for the last time and conquer Australia.

That's always my tactics when I play at RISK (^_^)

Answer 5

In a three-way war... I'd guess it would be the U.S.; we've fought a war on two fronts before (WWII), and (I think) we have a larger military force. Europe as a whole doesn't have an army - only the armies of the individual countries; I have never gotten the impression that Australia has a big military force either. But... I'm no expert, so who knows? Mostly, I hope it never happens!

Answer 6

europe - it took the soviet union , the united states, great britain and the commonwealth the defeat germany in WW2

if you add all of the EU countries to Germany then you can imagine the force -

australia ? they are not even worth considering - it would be bloody but europe would win - the us navy would lie at the bottom of the ocean - the cities would be ash - with over 20 000 soviet missiles to back europe up -

Answer 7

Australia would have no shot. The only way they would survive is if they teamed up with either the USA or Europe. I would have to say the USA would win the war. I believe they are slightly stronger than a united Europe...but it would be close.

Answer 8

Europe has the French drag factor. America wouldn't get involved until nearly too later and Australia would still be on the beach. A draw.

Answer 9

Well it would be between Europe and Aussi because Bush don't even know where Iraq is in comparison to Iran so don't ask him for Europe let alone Aussi!

I think Europe would win over Aussi because we are so blood thirsty over here, plus more people and weapons.

Answer 10

Hmmm tough. Australia would lose for sure. Europe isn't as far with there technologies as America. I think there would be a truce before too much fighting would go on. America would probably win.
