Basic premise behind Ender's Game +1.

Though, if you read the Bean series, you'll see what happens when the world is unified and is victorious in that war.

Of course every country is going to attempt seizure of the war heroes and fight among each other for those individuals. Though, in this book, there was a world government...slightly different from modern-day.
