Novel

Jeffrey Fuller
The setting takes place in the years 2011-2012. Boer reactionaries seize control of the government of South Africa. The United Nations places economic sanctions on South Africa in return. In response, South Africa begins to sink merchant shipping belonging to the United Kingdom and the United States. NATO mobilizes and a large convoy sets sail towards South Africa with only Germany holding out due to "social unrest".

Half-way to South Africa, there is a revolt in Germany. The Hohenzollern family is crowned as Kaiser, but the Kaiser is nothing more than a figurehead puppet ruler. The German government declares their support for South Africa and both nations form the Boer-Berlin Axis.

In a pre-planned move, Germany and South Africa use tactical nuclear warheads to destroy the NATO convoy, Warsaw, and Tripoli. These moves force Continental Europe to surrender out of fear of being in a nuclear war. Most of the world stays neutral out of fear or greed or both. Russia is selling the Boer-Berlin Axis weapons and intelligence to support their economy. On the side of the allies, only the United States, the United Kingdom, Mexico, the Republic of Ireland, Chile, Venezuela, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Costa Rica, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and several unnamed African nations are still fighting, with Cuba quietly supporting them. Although through the course of the war, Brazil, Turkey, India, Indonesia, most of the Middle East, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Russia join the Allies. Tactical nuclear warheads are the weapon of choice with a gentleman's agreement not to hit any civilians.
