A more detailed Timeline of the Great War. This is for reference only and fixed. In other words, only in rare cases will details be permitted to be added.
2037: A meteorite crashes somewhere near Siberia. Contained within it is a material never seen before. Scientists discovered that this material could store and conduct dark matter, which meant a near infinite supply of energy. However, even though dark matter is abundant, the material is not and contention began to grow through the world. Whoever had the energy had the power and there was great debate on who should hold that power.
2040-2046: The Dark War/The Great War/ WWIII
War broke out. Nearly every nation joined in this fight, though in the beginning it was a war between regional coalition forces. Asia, for example, formed the United Asia Coalition or the UAC. In terms of Japan, much of the fighting was done in or near China.
May 4th, 2046: The Disaster
Whether by accident or sabotage, the material holding the dark matter broke, sending what could be termed as a bomb, sweeping across Russia and the Baltics. Everything the dark matter touched, it disintegrated, leaving nothing but scoured rock.
This is roughly the area it impacted:

2046-2049: Reconstruction
Shifting weather patterns and much infighting between broken coalitions lead to a brief period of chaos which was quickly cleaned up by various governmental forces. A new, albeit tenuous era of peace began.
