The initial invasion was the basis for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and its Remaster while the events of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 revolved around the international conflict sparked by the Russian invasion of Western Europe and the battles that occurred in New York, London, Paris and Berlin. The United States was initially caught off guard by the attack, but were able to hold several key positions. Joseph Allen, a participant in the airport attack, was left to die by Vladimir Makarov, the real mastermind (other than Shepherd) behind the attack, in order to manipulate the Russians into thinking Americans caused the attack. The conflict initially began when Russian forces invaded the United States as revenge for the massacre at Zakhaev International Airport. The war was created by General Shepherd, who sought to ignite a war between the US and Russia in order to get revenge against the Ultranationalists for the deaths of 30,000 US marines under his command in the Middle East. World War III (abbreviated WWIII or WW3, also referred to as the Third World War) was a conflict between Ultranationalist Russia and the NATO countries including the United States of America, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada, the Czech Republic and Italy.
