India-Pakistan Conflict - Land Of The Indus Versus Land Of The Pure

That sounds like a straight rip-off of Planet of the Apes

I guess there is a vague similarity, but it's really quite different, and better. To give you an example from the book, imagine the twin cities of Texarkana escaping the nuclear war, becoming the center of a feudal-like kingdom hundreds of years later, then ultimately being destroyed by a nuclear bomb in the year 3700. That type of thing has a lot more value for people who enjoy history than PotA. Also, most of the original movies sucked.

Edit: With regards to this thread, it seems like It's Happening. I still doubt we will see a nuclear exchange, but we are well on the road to a major conventional exchange. And at that point, atomic bombs on the Indian subcontinent are more likely than not.

For anyone reading this comment I would recommend A Canticle for Leibowitz. Perhaps the consummate example of post-post-apocalyptic literature. Beginning with a nuclear war that destroys civilization in the 1960s, it continues until humanity re-advances to the space age, then destroys itself again with nuclear bombs in 3700.

It came out in 1960, and was written by Walter M. Miller Jr. Here's the TVTropes page with more information, if anyone's interested.

It's like saying "Politicians are just dumb guys, trust me, they're not literally daemon-worshipping child-raping servants of the enemy". Great job exposing yourself as a Reddit-fugee.

Those 2 things are not comparable. Either way everything that surrounds nuclear weapons is a nothingburger, nuclear winter? can't happen. Radiation to kill all life? not enough nuclear fuel for that to happen in just 1 continent. "muh nuclear war will kill 6 bazillion people!111!!11!!!!" most nuclear weapons don't even work anymore after sitting in silos for decades, the only ones that are probably cared for are the ones in submarines. also, why do you believe that they don't exist?
