And after the Martians lost, the powers of Europe and USA and Africa and Asia all had the Martian technology. The black smoke, the heat rays, the tripod machines and even the red weed-some of which survived. Then when the Great War happened oh boy was it worse than in our world. It started sooner, lasted longer, and was as world spanning as World War 2. Average death toll at 102 million. Including any ancillary deaths from disease, starvation, privation. 1912 – 1919 when it ended in a horrible orgy of destruction and mass death in five places on the Earth.
Then there was the Second Martian Invasion of Earth in 1955. But that will be a story next time anon.
