So on episode 4x12, Spencer asks if -A just declared "World War -A", after she sends them the answer balls.
Today I was reading about World War II on my US History book, and some parts started grabbing my attention and, obviously, my mind went straight to PLL.
Ok, I wont be going over super specific historical details here, since we all know the drill.
Basically, the three super powers during the war on the Allies side were Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union. And then Germany on the Axis side.
Here's what caught my attention: (about the United States and the Soviet Union) "Both countries had been largely isolated from world affairs before World War II - the United States through choice, and the Soviet Union through rejection by the other powers."
After the war was over, these two nations were the world's super powers.
What if this relates to Pretty Little Liars?
Soviet Union (rejected by other powers): Mona
United States ("isolated" by choice): Cece? Black Veil? Third Red Coat? Who?
I believe Alison is Germany because that was the nation deeply hated by the other countries.
I think Cece is the United States because she was extremely popular and "powerful", yet the girls had no idea who she was.
- The Soviet Union and the United States worked side by side during the War. I think this relates to whoever Mona/SU was working with at the beginning, who I believe it's Cece.
- After defeating Germany, US and SU had very different ideologies on how to proceed. This leads to the Cold War. Mona wants Ali gone, and someone else wants her to stay. What if there's a direct confront between the A-Team and Mona's Army? They are already playing chess, trying to make Ali do whatever they want.
- SU/Mona: wanted total control over the world, but the United States ended their imperialism. Red Coat/Black Veil/Someone else taking control of the "game" from Mona.
- The Soviet Union was working with the United States, then stopped their alliance after Germany was defeated, and then after their Cold War, United States became the main super power in the world. I think this relates to Mona working with someone (Cece?), then kicking them out of the team, and the Cece/Someone else getting the game back from her.
- The only thing that both the United States and the Soviet Union agreed on was that the Nazis deserved to be punished. Both Mona as -A and the new -A torture the girls even though it seems they are being punished for Ali's mistakes.
- I also believe that Germany's timeline can be connected to Ali: Prior to WW1, Germany took an aggressive stance towards its neighbors, starting building its military, even if they didn't specifically wanted to go to war. It was then defeated during WWII, rose back to power during the 1930's, and then it was defeated during WW2. Alison had every citizen of Rosewood on the palm of her hand, ready to squeeze them as she pleased, even though she might not have wanted to crush them. Ali was then attacked and "taken out" for a while, and now she came back to Rosewood. What if Germany's aftermath relates to Ali's? Will she be taken out once more?
Wow, ok, I now this sounds kind of crazy, but I had this idea as soon as I was reading the book and needed to share it. What do you think?? Do you think Cece was working with Mona? What do you think will/wants to happen to Alison?
(Not supposed to be extremelly historically perfectly accurate - I only picked and choose what I thought was relevant)
