MY OWN VIEW RE WWIV

I call it WWIV because I consider the Seven Years War World War One.

It is admittedly arbitrary, because one really could consider Genghis' campaigns World War I, with much justification.

Then, the Seven Years War would be World War II, and of course what we call World War I would be World War III. That may, technically, be more accurate. Then we are talking WWV. You decide.

We do not have any leverage, and generally do not really even understand the nature of the conflict, now unfolding before our eyes.
