Best Answer

Countries tend to make atom bombs to make a show of strength, so that other countries will think twice before attacking the country with the Atom bomb. This behavior tends to have the opposite effect, making other country build atom bombs so that the appearance of strength is also shown in their country. This is often how war begins.
