World War III
From Left Behind Wiki
World War III is a prophesied event of the Bible. In the Left Behind books, it took place 18 months after the start of the Tribulation with the second Seal Judgment. It was precipitated by United States President Gerald Fitzhugh allying himself with various militia factions rebelling against the order of the Global Community head of state Nicolae Carpathia, which resulted in the destruction of major cities such as Washington, D.C. and New York City.
