Outcome

The immediate effects included the devestation of most major cities in the former USA, as well as the ghoulification of a significant portion of the above ground and poorly sheltered population and the death of a even larger portion.
It is unknown which country won the war.  In practical terms, no one did.

Aftermath

Radiation induced mutations damaged and altered the DNA of most recognizable species of flora and fauna.  Visible mutations are still prevalent in the ecosystem over 210 years later.

Historical Significance

The turning point of human history - the marks the change between Pre-War and Post-War eras.
This was shortest war in human history, lasting only a few hours, but thus far has the farthest reaching reprecussions, with direct effects still being felt over 200 years later.

Technological Advancement

Nuclear bombs were used as the main weapons. Little other technology was used.
