There where some big wars that never where during the 1900's. I'm thinking about the Sino-Soviet war, a violent crash between Italy and Germany over Austria in the 30's, maybe a South American war between Brazil and Argentina, another India-Pakistani war or a full scale war between India and China and so on.
But would any of those influence technology in a big way? Or does the idea of wars driving development fail in those cases? Is technological development during wartime a US and to some extent a Brittish speciality making up for a less martial society?
