So in the Kats planet, the F&I War is really MWI, WWI is >MWII, and WWII is MWIII. Make Sense? That way, the Red Lynx is in MWII >(WWI), and things then work out like they should! WWI is considered the first global war because it involved just about every major super power on the globe. The US, Britain, Russia, France, Germany, Austria-Hungary, the Balkans, Italy, and (to some extent) Japan. Maybe even Canada and Austrailia, but I'm not sure. The French and Indian War was fought between Britain and France (if I remember my history correctly), and to some extent spilled over into America because of the conflicts between the rival British colonies and French colonies in North America. That's only really involving two major super powers (as signigant as the Native American contribution was in the war, they are not considered a super power), and only took place in the oceans and in two major European countries, as America was not a country at the time, it was a colony. > >Jake Bridges > DJ Clawson President of the "SWAT Kat" Club & the Evil Willy Fan "Bucky O'Hare" Fan Club Check out my fanfic archives: SWAT Kats Bucky O'Hare ------------------------------------------------------------ "Paranoia is just reality on a finer scale." - Vincent from "Strange Days" ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Do not meddle in the affairs of the SWAT Kats, . for they well armed and destined to win.
