To those who are well-versed in Earth's history and claim to be from the early 21st century or beyond:

World War I
World War II
Brush Wars
Cold War
Eugenics Wars

Are there any conflicts on this list that are unfamiliar to you? If so, which ones?

Your input on this matter would be most helpful.

The Brush Wars were a series of conflicts that occurred in Asia during the mid 20th century. Two world powers supplied arms to the smaller nations that were warring with one another.

As for the Eugenics Wars, they were fought in the 1990s, and were a result of scientists' ambitions to improve the Human race by means of genetic engineering and selective breeding.

Not surprisingly, I believe I am unfamiliar with these "Gears" you describe.

Seeing how many people's accounts of Earth history are vastly different from one another, that is the logical conclusion. I am merely verifying my theory, and attempting to estimate a period of divergence in our universes.

Your "Brush Wars" sound kind of like the Korean and Vietnam Wars. As for the "Eugenics Wars," though...I'm a product of the 1990s, and I can pretty confidently say that what you're describing is science fiction, not fact.

In the case of the Brush Wars, perhaps it is an interesting difference in terminology rather than a radical difference in history. Where I come, however, the Eugenics Wars of the 1990s are very much a fact of history -- a bloody one, I might add, considering it was the precursor to the near destruction of humanity.

They both sound familiar and both correlate with the history I am familiar with in some ways, yet they're still radically different.

Gears are lifeforms that have either been genetically altered or created to be infused with Magic, a limitless power source, and ultimately turning them into bioweapons capable of mass destruction. Most have been destroyed with very few exceptions.

I see. If you need any assistance with that goal, I will gladly help.
