|name              = 
|aka               = 
|image             =

|strength1         =
|strength2         = 
|nav               = 
|prev              = 
|next              = 
|nav2              = 
|prev2             = 
|next2             = 
|nav3              = 
|prev3             = 
|next3             = 
}}

This infobox fills in a few of the variables with "unknown" if you don't enter a value. If you don't know the leaders or the strengths, it will automatically place "unknown" in the box. Remember, we can only use information that is actually given to us by a DWU story. That's why, for example, the World War II box says "unknown" for the strengths, even though we know an approximate real world figure.
