Largest ever turnout for Tehran Day marches
Kuala Lumpur, March 17, 2050: More than 20 million people worldwide are believed to have turned out for Tehran Day peace rallies this year.
The largest marches were in Indonesia, Pakistan, Malaysia and Denmark. Five million people marched in Jakarta alone and Denmark, with a population of just 10 million people, registered four million marchers.
Rallies in the rest of Europe were smaller, with two million turning out in France and similar numbers in Germany, Italy and the UK.
"The world is still in mourning over the deaths of 50 million people in the Oil War," UN Secretary General Carla DuPont said in front of 50,000 people gathered outside the UN headquarters in Beijing. "It should mourn for a thousand years."
The most dramatic march was conducted by a group of 20 representatives of the Persian Gulf diaspora who flew into the Tehran hot zone by helicopter to plant a wreath at the site of the former Shahyad Tower. The group was arrested and quarantined by Saudi police when the helicopter returned to Riyadh.
History Line
It was on this day in 2015 that armed forces of the then Superpower, the United States of America, used tactical nuclear weapons against an underground nuclear research facility in Tehran which it claimed was used to produce and store nuclear weapons. It was the first use of nuclear weapons in war since they were used to end the Second World War in 1945.
20,000 people died immediately in that attack, and up to 130,000 are believed to have died as a result of radiation induced illnesses related to the attack.
International condemnation followed, as did massive disruption to oil supplies and the global economy. This culminated in the invasion in October 2028 by Coalition Forces (principally US, Israel, Turkey) of Jordan and Saudi Arabia aimed at securing access to the Safaniya and Ghawar Oilfields.
Saudi and Iranian forces combined with Syria and Egypt to oppose the invasion and what became known as the Oil War followed. It is unclear which nation was the first to use nuclear weapons in the Oil War, but historical consensus is that Saudi Arabia detonated underground nuclear weapons in the Ghawar, Abqaiq, Hawtah and Marjan fields in order to deny them to the invaders.
A large element of the US XVIII Airborne Corp was trapped in the hotzone created by these explosions and the US, Turkey and Israel responded over the next week with tactical nuclear strikes on Iran, Syria and Egypt.
The conflict was halted when a united Russia, Pakistan, China and India threatened all out nuclear war with the US unless it ceased hostilities. US Congress removed the then US President Carlton, and Coalition nuclear forces in the Gulf and mainland USA were disarmed by the UN.
On November 3 2028, three weeks after it started, the Oil War ended, and 50 million people were dead, including more than 50% of the population of Iran.
