Soviet-Finland Border Conflict

The Soviet-Finland Border Conflict Commonly referred to as The Finland War, or Summer War was a massive border clash that took place in 1986 between the Finland Military and Soviet Union for strategic control of the Finnish Soviet borderline area, in hopes of expanding USSR territory farther into Western Europe.

The War was sparked after an accident was caused on a bridge, when a Soviet Tank crushed a Finnish car, resulting in the 3 month clash between the Soviet Union and Finnish forces. At one point during the first 2 months, the Soviet Union was able to succeed in forcing the Finnish Military back a few miles away from the border zone, until a massive counter attack overran the USSR forces and resulted in a series of Nuclear strikes within the entire border area, that annihilated both Finnish and Soviet forces along the entire border zone.

The Conflict was the final deadly engagement to ever take place between the Soviet Union and Finland, as no other Soviet attempt at Invading Finland was conducted throughout the remainder of the Soviet's existence, and was also forever known as the second Failed Soviet Invasion of Finland, and the only known war in history, where Nuclear weapons had to be used on the battlefield.

In the aftermath of the Nuclear holocaust, due to the USSR killing off its own troops, the Western nations did not retaliate, preventing a nuclear war from happening, and instead resulted in the signing of the Treaty of Finland, which ended all hostilities between the Soviet Union and Finland, on January 18th, 1987.

The war ended in a draw, with neither side claiming victory, due to the result of the nuclear holocaust that occured on August 15th, 1986.
