that ' s not entirely fair . I had a number of theories about where whores go , the size of Arianne ' s nipples , and so on that were , if not quite disproved , certainly cast into doubt by ADWD . strictly speaking mostly dealt with in AFFC . <| sep |> I still love her . <| sep |> It ' s a huge question , but I imagine one of the likely outcomes is a LOT more nuclear proliferation . Without a US defensive pact , it starts to make a lot of sense for many countries to get a nuclear deterrent for traditionally aggressive neighbours . Think South Korea , Japan , KSA for starters . There are plenty of countries that are perfectly capable of building nuclear arms quite quickly if they need to . Also , by the time WWIII starts , you are going to be in a LOT worse starting position basically the same as before WWII .
