So who do you think would win in a modern scenario? The three major powers right now (Russia, China and the USA) would be at total war with each other and no alliances possible between them. The poll also includes other countries interaction, such as Iran, North Korea and England to name a few.

Wouldn't China and Russia be allied? Because if so I'm voting for Russia and allies, Russia has the most nukes in the world and they could equip Iran with nukes.

russia and china are allies? Yes they are. Russia has the most nukes and tanks, China has the biggest conventional army. Together, they are quite unstoppable

But the creator says no alliances between the 2 of them. So no, in this specific scenario they aren't allied. In real life though, they probably would team up.

I'd say the US. They would have almost all, if not all, of NATO backing them up.

World War 2 was 70 years ago though. NATO is much stronger now.

Even if their allies are lackluster at best, the USA is still a huge country. And I'm sure they would supply their allies with proper tech and equipment.

Iraq would be allied with the USA but Iran would be allied with Russia.

It would obviously be the us and co. The us has the most nukes, the biggest and most advanced navy (by a looooooong shot), the biggest and most advanced airforce, and lots of resources and military industrial capacity. And thats without considering all of its allies.
Secondly, you guys have the misconception china and russia are true allies. While they may be somewhat friendly (on and off), they arent nearly the same lvl of alliance as nato for example. Plus China relies on the US for a lot of its trade, so they might be neutral or support the us block instead.
Third, even if the Us allies are unprepared, they still are rich with large populations, and could easily get better if a war actually broke out. Plus there are countries like Israel that have large, well trained militaries to help train the others.
Fourth, China has alienated many of its traditional allies with its actions in the south china sea. Even countries like Vietnam are cultivating closer relationships with the us to counteract Chinas power. North Korea was never really an ally, especially now that the nuclear program is up and china is worried about north korea instability.
