From some things I've read which might not be canon, The Chinese decided to expand much like I talk about in some IRL posts. China won some early victories, and pushed into Anchorage, which lead to a US counter attack which was shattering China's military due to a lot of technological innovations. China fired the nukes to prevent the US from landing on their Mainland (despite the general folly of a land war in Asia beyond this point), figuring they would rather destroy the world than be defeated/conquered/disarmed.

Truth be told, we're not likely to ever know, the only time it will become relevent is if details on past events become nessicary to one of the stoylines.

Truthfully though given the horrible beast of political correctness they are liable to leave it ambigious.

Given the general lack of Chinese armies on US soil as far as we've seen (though there were spies and such) it seems that the US was winning at least in a very superficial sense. Heck, what's left behind also seems to show a general lack of concern over the outcome among the general populance.

Also in Wasteland the war was with The Russians. :p

I think that both sides might of fired the reason they are bound to have spies in the american and chinese goverment so i'm thinking that one spy missed traslanted and ended up reporting that the chinese were going to fire there nukes while to americans are preparing the chinese spy tells his/her goverment that the americans are preparing to unleash hell so the chinese end up preparing come the day every dooms day fantics dreams about they both fire upon each other with some misfiring into friendly countries and before we know it no one knows who fired first.

or

The enclave started it i cant remember which enclave president said but the enclave was around before the nuke war so i'm thinking that they feed flase info just to start it so they can impose there new world order as they would be left unchecked as there would be little force to stop them but they did not count on former us soliders forming the brother hood of steel as well as the vault dweller and his/her descendant and the lone wanderer puting a spanner in there works.

But I say America. They don't seem are so afraid to, they blow shit up. All it takes is a few idiots in goverment, which every nation already has.
There, I fixed it for you.

But really, there's no point in arguing, it really does not matter at all. It's like two kids fighting and they both cry out "but you started it!"
Well, there's always two parties in a fight.
If possible, can we avoid bashing entire countries?
I'm sorry, I always forget you have to mention it if you're not serious about a topic on the internet. (This time I am serious)

It was Sweden.

If you play the 546th recorded audio for Fallout 2 backwards, it will say that Sweden rules the world, and that the Wasteland is simply an illusion!

My bad.
Still, using directional denominators on a sphere is a silly practice.

Australia fired first, at the command of then Prime Minister; Han Solo. The missle was loaded with a single male Sydney Funnel Web Spider. We aimed it at America for all those bad reality tv shows they forced on us. Americans believing us to be "Stupid Aussie drongos" incapable of such an act, fired their missles at China.

While the rest of the world was glassed, we here in Australia lean back in our deck chairs and watch as we mumble;
"Whos the stupid drongo now?"
