In retrospect, a dictatorship would have been better than
what resulted. At least the the army wouldn’t have been turning their weapons
on each other, and any civilians who didn’t agree with them.
Half the army remained loyal and did their best to keep
the government in power. That proved impossible as the disloyal half simply destroyed
any civic building and bunker they could find. What followed was the most
powerful military force in the world imploding on itself. While the leaders of
each side refrained from going nuclear, that might have been preferable to the
century-long war that resulted.
