Wars tend to give economic growth and technological advancement as consolation prizes, though. I don't see that happening here. I hope we can get at least an improved public health system out of it, but I fear we won't get even that.

Worth noting that the UK pretty much got the NHS because of WW2.

While WWII gave economic advantage to united states, places where it happened were destroyed and in loss. Wars are economic advantage also if you get to get colony you can exploit - but colony looses a lot. Syria gained no growth. Places that got destabilized by war and became great playground for local warlords got no growth. Wars are pretty much catastrophy for most involved.
