[ WP ] In the future the U.N. has found a way to stop the killing and the destruction of War : RISK , The UN version . The game has evolved so much that has become a complete simulation of war with super-computers doing the math and specialists discussing the game .

Secretary General Zhang McDouglass looked at the small screen on his wristphone and frowned. 
 
 `` The Russian Empire has failed to annex Poland. The price is being transmitted to the Russians now.'' A cheer went up from the small contingent of Polish ambassadors sitting at a corner table in the large room filled with dignitaries. The Russian table, per usual, was empty. 
 
 Zhang bit his lip for a moment and spoke again, `` Does Poland want to relinquish its right?'' 
 
 `` No Sir,'' replied the dignitary, `` we demand our right.'' 
 
 `` Understood,'' said Zhang as he poked at his wristphone. 
 
 A moment later the screen came alive with a map of Europe and Russia. A red dot appeared over St. Petersburg. Zhang sighed. 
 
 `` Its is done,'' he announced, `` the right to elimination of one major non-capital city has been done. We will monitor radiation levels from the UN nuclear weapon to make sure it does n't affect surrounding territories.'' 
 
 The Polish ambassador smiled and he and his entourage quietly left the room. One man high-fived another as Zhang watched. 
 
 Zhang stood at the dias. `` Next? The Republic of Texas versus New Oregon. The simulation is primed. Are you ready?'' He rubbed his eyes and heard the familiar, `` Yes, Sir.'' They never say'no' anymore he thought to himself as he started the simulation and watched nervously as the supercomputer figured out who was about to win a freshwater water access dispute. 
 
 
 
 He stood up again, `` Oregon has failed to repel the Texan invaders.'' 
 
 Cheers started up again from the rear of the room. One man yelled, `` We demand our right!'' 
 
 He sighed and sat down. A tear ran down his cheek as he whispered to himself, `` This is the best of all systems. The alternative was the end of humanity. Cruelty is relative. The lesser of all evils is the best of all outcomes.'' 
 
 `` Portland is no more,'' he said wiping the tears from his eyes. His wristphone beeped impatiently, reminding him that he had eight more conflicts to settle before the day was through.
