- "Without Captain Carter or Captain America to stop them, HYDRA unleashed the Tesseract's powers, won the war, and destroyed the world in the process."
- ―Watcher[src]
World War II was a global war that engulfed Earth.
World War[]
- "The bomb at Project Rebirth packed a bigger bang in this universe. Neither you nor Steve Rogers survived."
- ―Watcher to Captain Carter[src]
As the war started up, HYDRA heard of Project Rebirth's goal to create Super Soldiers. They successfully bombed the project, destroying it and killing the candidate. This was a step in their victory.[1]
Aftermath[]

Red Skull's monument
With HYDRA's victory, they went on to dominate and inevitably destroy the world, with the only thing left standing was a monument to Red Skull. This victory was narrated by Watcher to a version of Peggy Carter hailing from a different universe in which she had survived the explosion and become a super soldier, eventually defeating HYDRA.[1]
