There are a couple options for who will be involved in WW3

Countries that will 100% be in WW3 -

The United States of America. The US can never resist a good fight, and is as of right now the nation with the tensest relationships. Almost every one of the US's alliances has been tainted with Trump's actions, and nearly every country sees the US as a joke, at least in terms of leadership. If the US was to go to war with another nation, most of it's allies would most likely be because of a common enemy. If the US was to go to war with North Korea, The British would most likely join since they are enemies with North Korea too, instead of because they are allies with the US. That being said, The US still has the strongest army in the world by far, and could most likely stand alone if they were only at war with one or two, maybe even three other nations. 

Countries that will most likely be in WW3-

Russia. Russia has been making very big moves in the grand scheme of things. They've been getting into the US Democratic system, and if the US somehow makes it through Trump's presidency, the next president will most likely set extreme sanctions on Russia and possibly go to war if they continued to interfere with American politics. Russia is also a communist hub, meaning many capitalist nations in the world aren't too nice-nice with Russia and might want to join in if a war breaks out. 

North Korea. North Korea has been getting further and further every day with their nuclear program, and no matter how many times they promise to stop, they continue. Eventually, they may end up nuking themselves on accident or starting a war with another nation. 

China. China has strong alliances with both of the countries above, being tightly connected and not enemies of North Korea, and using the communist economic system for the most part, meaning they might join Russia if they are in a war. As of right now, China's alliance with the US is held on by a thread, and mostly by economic ties, since the US purchases many of the products China makes.

Countries that might be in WW3-

The EU. While not technically a country, many large countries in the EU such as England and Germany may join in a war if one of their allies are in one, but it is unlikely they will start one themselves since they've been mostly dormant and non-threatening (at least not as much as the US or Russia) on a worldwide scale

The Middle East. While not technically a country again, some countries in the Middle east are either harboring (maybe not by choice) terrorism or nuclear weapons, both things the US doesn't like at all. If either of these were to pass the line, the US might jump in and start a war.

And that's basically it. WW3 could be right around the corner for all we know, especially with the current political climate, and the US will most likely be right in the middle of it.

North Korea has been in the news now more than ever before. Tensions were quite hot a little while ago, when Trump had his twitter war on Kim Jong-Un, but now they seem to be cooling down with the peace summits that have been taking place. However, nothing has really come of the peace talks at the moment, and there has been news that North Korea hasn't been following through. I'm still optimistic for collective denuclearization, but at this point I'm pretty sure the only option to get rid of the Kim family is war. Even if denuclearization occurs, Kim is still in power, and that's a problem.

My guess, is that eventually someone will declare war on North Korea, my guess is it will probably be the United States, but as China is a strong ally of North Korea. They basically keep their economy running, and China will jump in to help defend North Korea. South Korea will most likely join the United States. And the close allies of the United States will probably join in as well, those being the United Kingdom, and maybe France + Germany.

My guess is that most of the leaders of countries around the world know that war is necessary, but I think that none of them want to be the one who attacks first.

I can tell you that once World War III arrives. Why? Because land and borders will change with World War III.

You mean WW3?

They wont be no world war 4 because world word 3 is the last war that will involve Nuclear, chemical and artificial weaponry. After ww3 it will be an long lasting peace on earth.

the potential for World War is in Syria. Almost every night, Russian state television shows news broadcasts about Russian planes in action in Syria, interspersed with pictures of tanks and NATO forces are threatening the Russian border.

But on the other hand, there is an opinion that says that World War III will break out in the South China Sea.

If America is involved in a direct attack on Assad, while on the one hand there is resistance from Russia and Iran, then this will be something terrible.

Former Donald Trump Adviser Steve Bannon said in March last year that the US was ready to fight in the South China Sea in the next five to ten years.
