I hope the Gallente doesn't win, although I admit it is a futile hope. After all, it will get rediculous. New New Caldari? Newest Caldari? No thanks.
As for the "blocks" I saw earlier. Don't count on the Khanid and Amarr to help Caldari. Khanid have much stronger bonds to the Caldari than the Amarr do, but Khanid and Amarr are hostile towards each other.
The Mordu's Legion is growing ever weaker.
Never forget the Serpentis. They will not waste a chance to grasp for market shares, but they are not stupid enough to let the Caldari destroy their best markets - the rich Gallenteans. Not to mention that they will certainly loose the valuable markets the Syndicate provides. And this is not even taking into consideration that Serpentis is not very large at all, and is mostly a manufacturer/researcher organization (guarded by Angel Cartel)
And we are also forgetting that not all factions are equal. There's a reason for the Caldari tube children, and it's not a beneficial one.
It is much more likely that an EVE-wide war will split up in different interest wars.
Gallente versus Caldari
Minmatar versus Amarr
Khanid versus Amarr
Minmatar versus Ammatar
Blood Raiders versus (primarily) Amarr
Guristas versus Caldari
And everywhere in between there shall be interest struggles, alliance pacts, and so forth.
Who knows who any of these factions will side with: Thukker Tribe, Sisters of EVE (yeah, yeah), Society of Concious Thought, Jove Empire, CONCORD Assembly (Let's face it, if Caldari jumps into Gallente space, they'll get CONCORDOKKEN).
And I think the player choices will be interesting. However, it must be said that it is a tendency for the smallest faction to have the largest number of players in most games (EVE's case, there's many more Caldari than there really should be).
I have a feeling that the Minmatar will be those left most in the cold by the players.

close range fleet engagement = caldari wins.
long range fleet engagement = gallente wins.
Errr, do you play EVE?
Caldari = Railguns
Gallente = Blasters
Nah, that's the story. In real EVE, Caldari is weak at long range, while Gallente maintains more firepower through Railguns. You meant if he'd READ EVE story/intentions.
