The "Second UsefulNotes/KoreanWar".[[note]]Very technically, it'd be the same Korean War as the one from 1950-53, as technically that war is still ongoing; the war stopping in 1953 was via an armistice that has never been formalized into an actual treaty. On the other hand, it's likely that in practice, it probably would be called the "Second Korean War": we call the [[UsefulNotes/ArabIsraeliConflict armed conflicts between Israel and the Arab states in 1948, 1956, 1967, and 1973]] different names (''many'' different names), but until 1979 none of the Arab states signed peace treaties with Israel.[[/note]]

The issue in both cases is that ''peace treaties'' are concluded between sovereign countries - armistice agreements can be signed with non-state actors and in either case one side or both did not want to utter the implied acknowledgement of the other side as a sovereign state that a formal peace treaty would imply. But legally speaking, an armistice ends ''fighting'', not the ''state of war'' - only a peace treaty can do that.[[/note]]

Published between 1871 and 1914. Started with ''The Battle of Dorking''. Before 1903, the invader was France. With ''The Riddle of the Sands'' (not one of these, technically speaking), switched to Germany (the Entente Cordiale and all that). (''Literature/TheWarOfTheWorlds'' was actually a case of this, with the Germans swapped out out for advanced aliens). Believe it or not [[Literature/Dracula]] has been classified by some literary critics (including Wikipedia) as an example of an "invasion novel".

Better fit under Second American Civil War. removed.


* In ''Literature/{{Victoria}}'' (2014), a fracturing near-future America collapses into civil war and ethnic cleansing campaigns after devastating terrorist attacks and economic meltdown, with foreign invasions by Mexico and UN-sponsored peacekeepers following. The book appears intended to warn against increasing political and cultural polarization, as well as faulty foreign and defense policies.

* ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquerGenerals'': The game starts at some point after an anthrax-tipped missile launched by the Global Liberation Army (read: Al Qaeda) is shot down over the Atlantic. The game then features a MeleeATrois between the US, the GLA, and China, with all other nations absent despite taking place all over the Middle East and Central Asia and featuring reckless bioweapons usage (the final GLA mission involves taking over the Baikonour cosmodrome to bombard the US with tons of anthrax-laden missiles).
