Nuclear weapons were crucial during the Cold War era as they served as a powerful deterrent against potential conflicts between superpowers, primarily the United States and the Soviet Union. The concept of mutually assured destruction (MAD) meant that both sides were deterred from engaging in direct military confrontation, as any nuclear exchange would result in catastrophic losses for both. Additionally, nuclear capabilities influenced global power dynamics, leading to arms races and strategic alliances. Their significance extended beyond military might, shaping international relations and national security policies during the mid-20th century.
