The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO.
The NATO was founded by Treaty in Washington on the 4th of April 1949 (Washington, USA). It was preceded by the Treaty of Brussels, signed in Brussels (Belgium) on the 17th of March 1948.
The Soviet Union felt threatened by this new development and feared an aggressive action by the new Western alliance. First it tried to defuse the situation peacefully. This resulted in a formal request by the Soviet Union to join NATO in 1954. However NATO refused the request. In stead of allowing the Soviet Union in, it made an aggressive move, by accepting membership of Western Germany into the NATO, bringing NATO territory right to the borders of what the Soviets saw as their sphere of influence.
A year later, as a response to this allegedly aggressive act, the Soviet Union and its allies formed a defense alliance of their own, called the Warsaw pact. Treaty signed in Warsaw (Poland) on the 14th of May 1955.
Only after the cold-war it became known that both sides had fostered plans and strategies for a first strike invasion against the other. Fortunately it did not come to that.

ok, now enable me answer your question properly. First, Armageddon is easily the position the position the merely accurate conflict will ensue, no longer the fashion of the international ending. that is a particular valley (also observed as Megiddo) outdoors Jerusalem. ought to that very last conflict be linked with WWIII? certain and no. the international most ideal as a lot because the top will be riddled with wars, tsunamis, earthquakes... yet because this is one conflict and not in any respect a really warfare, this is demanding to call it that. also, the conflict takes position after the Rapture, which hasn't got here about yet. considering no man or woman yet God is conscious of even as the Rapture is, we would have a WWIII the following day and performance the Rapture ensue thousands of years from now. wish this helps.
