What I meant to say in that overly contrived sentence, is the following:

Why is World War II called World War II? I mean, could it be so because the main reasons for the outbreak of the second one was the first? Like a movie, for example. Mission Impossible II wouldn't be called the second one, if it didn't have the same main characters in it. So, by that logic, is it named like a movie is named? Furthermore, if the second world war didn't have anything to do with the first, what would we call it? What will World War III be called? By my logic, it wouldn't be the third one, would it? It would just be The War or something. War: Resurrection?

But seriously, this is bugging me.
