Mo, I agree that there would be all kinds of strife in the countrysides of countries across the globe in the wake of a war like that described in Twilight canon. However, I think that within countries where there is not a lot of nativistic feeling or ethnic tension, you'd see a good deal of cooperation. Of course, there would be instances of urban refugees fighting with their rural counterparts, but I think that it would be the exception to the rule of cooperation.
A lot of the examples of strife you cited were instances where a foreign power was attacking the locals or rival ethnic groups within a given region were going at it and settling old scores. The only intra-ethnic/national example was the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia and that was Rural guerillas attacking city dwellers.
