During the Cold War, Russia created the "Czar" - a nuclear weapon named Царь-бомба in Russian ("Tsar' Bomba" - Czar Bomb). Detonated in Siberia, Russia, it became the largest bomb ever detonated. The blast yield was equivalent to 50 megatons of TNT, which was actually reduced from 100 megatons to reduce the fallout from the explosion.
