The background for change[]
This is what occurred the change.
Unlike our timeline america doesn't drop out of the Vietnam War, this causes more violence and destruction; the americans brought fake trees to hide and shoot fire. Many soldiers were requested to wear fursuits to scare the USSR from thinking there were monsters here.
After the USA's great tactics the USSR have huge budget decrease this makes them the idea of taking down america itself,(since bombing in vietnam will destroy the place and they are interested to take) this is in secret. The bombs reach DC and takes it down huge drafting is done to take the capital. When the realization came that america's allies might intervene they bombed most of europe around france.
Aftermath (this is for wiki editors to add and change)[]
The climate will be drastic, it would be much more hot than our world. Climate change would be way bigger of a issue than ours. Most people from North America or europe would migrate.
