Nuclear Arms Race The nuclear arms race was central to the Cold War. People believed that the more nuclear weapons a country had, the more powerful they were. As a result, both America and the Soviet Union built up their stockpiles of nuclear weapons.

Nuclear Warfare By 1961, there enough nuclear weapons to destroy the surface of the earth. By 1986, there was the the equivalent of one million Hiroshima-sized bombs.

Journal We talked about nuclear weapons on each sides. If a direct confrontation will result in complete destruction of both sides, how can the two sides compete?
