How Every Country Got Nuclear Weapons Explained

Описание: There are only 9 countries in the world that officially possess nuclear weapons. But did you know that only ONE country built its nukes entirely on its own, without any foreign help?

That country is India. 🇮🇳

In this video, we trace the fascinating and secretive history of how each nuclear power got the bomb — from America’s Manhattan Project in 1945 to North Korea’s black-market deals and Israel’s covert cooperation with France.

Here’s the full timeline:

1945 – United States: Developed the first nuclear bomb with help from UK and European refugee scientists under the Manhattan Project. Still the only country to have used nukes in war.

1949 – Soviet Union (Russia): Built its bomb based on espionage from the Manhattan Project.

1952 – United Kingdom: Built its arsenal with early cooperation from the US.

1960 – France: Developed nukes using global nuclear knowledge.

1964 – China: Got early help from the USSR, but relations soured.

1974 – India: Conducted the Smiling Buddha test and became the first country to build nuclear weapons independently.

1998 – Pakistan: Received aid from China and stolen European designs via AQ Khan.

2006 – North Korea: Likely received designs from Pakistan’s black-market network.

1960s – Israel (unconfirmed): Allegedly developed nukes with help from France and secret deals.

Plus, South Africa once had nukes but dismantled them in 1991 under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

This is the untold story of global nuclear power — how alliances, espionage, betrayal, and sheer will shaped one of the most dangerous arms races in history.
