This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

What a shit name for a war tbh. "Yo guys this was fun, but this is the last time we're getting together" - elves probably. Or maybe they meant last as in "previous", but that's just asking for it to get outdated.

Wars can be renamed after the fact.

Or else everyone fighting in World War 1 would have had a lot less chill after the war ended.

"Wait, we have to do this again??" - traumatised veteran probably

Well in that case it makes sense to instantiate an array, but they really should've called it World War 0

No that was the 7 years war/French Indian war.

I'd say ww0 would be the Napoleonic wars

7 years war/French Indian war is the alpha version

Napoleonic ears is the beta version

The war to end wars.. If only it turned out that way.
