Countries with Nuclear Weapons Capability
Acknowledged: Britain, China, France, India, Pakistan, Russia, United States
Unacknowledged: Israel
Seeking: North Korea,1 Iran2
Abandoned: South Africa—Constructed but then voluntarily dismantled six uranium bombs. Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine—When Soviet Union broke up, these former states possessed nuclear warheads that they have since given up.

there you go ollie,
* Red: Five "nuclear weapons states" from the NPT (USA, Russia, UK, France, PRC)
* Dark orange: Other known nuclear powers (India, Pakistan)
* Light orange: States suspected of having possession of, or suspected of being in the process of developing, nuclear weapons (Israel, North Korea, Iran, Ukraine)
* Purple: States which at one point had nuclear weapons and/or nuclear weapons research programs.

So little countrys with nuclear weapons capability.
Think its time we took advantage of this and started nuking some places. Decrease the surplus population.

"Nazi Germany – During World War II, Germany, under Nazi rule, researched possibilities to develop a nuclear weapon. However adequate resources were not invested into the effort and the project was found to be many years from completion by the end of the war. The research site was also sabotaged by the British spies and Norwegian partisans which slowed down their research (see Norwegian heavy water sabotage). Historian Rainer Karlsch, in his 2005 book Hitlers Bombe, has suggested that the Nazis may have tested some sort of "atom bomb" in Thuringia in the last year of the war (it may have been a radiological weapon rather than a fission weapon). (See: German nuclear energy project) Germany now is a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Although it has an advanced science and technology infrastructure and would be capable of creating a nuclear weapons program (and could probably be considered a "nuclear capable" state), the government has decided to decrease even the civil use of nuclear energy."

TSAR BOMBA, largest ever nuclear explosion...
"The original USA estimate of the yield was 57 Mt, but since 1991 all Russian sources have stated its yield as "only" 50 Mt. Khrushchev warned in a (video recorded) speech to the communist parliament of the existence of the 100 Mt bomb. The fireball touched the ground, reached nearly as high as the altitude of the release plane, and was seen 1,000 km away. The heat could have caused third degree burns at a distance of 100 km. The subsequent mushroom cloud was about 60 km high and 30-40 km wide. The explosion could be seen and felt in Finland, even breaking windows there. Atmospheric focusing caused blast damage up to 1,000 km away. The seismic shock created by the detonation was measurable even on its third passage around the earth.
Since 50 Mt is 2.1×1017 joules, the average power produced during the entire fission-fusion process, lasting around 3.9×10-8 seconds or 39 nanoseconds, which is a power of about 5.3×1024 watts or 5.3 yottawatts. This is equivalent to approximately 1% of the energy output of the Sun during the same fraction of a second. By contrast, the largest weapon ever produced by the United States, the now-decommissioned B41, had a predicted maximum yield of 25 Mt, and the largest nuclear device ever tested by the USA (Castle Bravo) yielded 15 Mt."

WTF? Why how is this allowed? Its miles away from the American mainland, I say Canada should invade it and take it back.
Did'nt the Americans actually buy it off the Russians?

i was told that Hitler kept all the scientists away from each other so that each one didn't have all the research needed in case they defected or were captured. Hitlers paranoia saves the day!
