Nuclear weapons are a waste of money. The only war we would ever fight would be in defense of our own island, so using nuclear weapons would be like burning down our own house to stop a burglary. Using nuclear weapons against the civilian population of another nation would be morally unthinkable.

The Church of Saintland has condemned nuclear weapons as an abomination. They are weapons of genocide that have no legitimate use. The King's Government condemns nuclear weapons and calls upon all foreign nations to dismantle their nuclear weapons immediately. The Kingdom of Saintland condemns the World Assembly in the strongest possible terms for permitting its members to possess nuclear weapons. King Paulus XV encourages the international community to act to prevent any nation from acquiring nuclear weapons, to overthrow regimes that possess nuclear weapons and to dismantle all nuclear weapons and prevent them from ever being used.

If a nation is known to possess nuclear weapons, the Kingdom of Saintland will not enter into diplomatic relations with that nation until they dismantle their city-killers.

The People's Republic inherited the former Soviet nuclear arsenal in 1993 following the 'transitional phase' between the Soviet era and the modern Samozniy era.
It has since been expanded.

Expanded by so much we honestly can't remember how big it is.
There are estimated to be no fewer than a hundred thousand warheads of all types, and at least twenty thousand ballistic missiles in the inventory.
Not all of these examples will be operational, and the number of missiles estimated is not the total number of delivery systems. A significant number of "tactical yield" warheads (officially referred to as "Kiloton-class" devices, despite many having maximum or variable yields capable of below 1kt) are artillery-deployed, man-deployed (demolition mines), launched via gravity bombs or cruise missiles.

No. We are a generally peaceful nation, but we do have an army and a navy (presence on the Black and Caspian Seas, and at friendly ports in the Mediterranean), both branches have an aerial component.

A major component of our national energy grid is a series of thorium-232 reactors, which were specifically chosen because their byproducts cannot be weaponized.

Complete with the portable bar like in the vid. Now instead of your standard tactical nuke, that just levels or disintegrates everything and leaves a smoldering, radiating crater, we did one better. Still dispences poisionous radiation yes. But only to people and animals. whats left of nature will come back in full force and reclaim everything like a swarm of misquitos while purifying the area for whatever is left of humanity and animals to start over. Oh ya and instead of a crater, it turns everything into ruins like in romanticly apocalyptic or fall out 3. Usually in the form of some sort of fog and loud, earth breaking explosions. Still, the force of the impact and what little bits of shrapnel that aren't disintegrated on impact, will likely at least do some damage to nature.

Well we have a extremely large arsenal of nuclear devices (100,000+) in comparison to other nations. We often have ICMB's based on Fractional Orbital Bombardment System which practically gives us reach across the entire planet. However we also are starting to employ ODD-500 space cruisers which will store our supply of nuclear weaponry.

The SRA has over 9 million fully functional and fully operational nuclear weapons, and we are still making a lot more of them.
We also have enough Long-ranged and Medium-ranged Andrew missiles that can successfully launch all of these nuclear weapons from anywhere around the world at any target from any distance.

The Empire maintains a stockpile of 2,379 nuclear weapons from the warheads for ICBMs and RBMs to nuclear artillery shells. We have never used them and are in the process of dismantling them because quite frankly we can do things to people that are far far more horrible than what nuclear weapons can do.

Deiterra has the capability to create its own nuclear weapons because of our ample use of nuclear power. But we do not make them because we have weapons more powerful and precise than nuclear missiles. We have the Helios Stations. Twelve of these stations are in orbit over Deiterra, meant to protect the nation 24/7, they are manned by crews of 30-60 at a time and each posses a singular laser beam that emanates from the bottom. The beams are accurate enough to destroy a large city to a single vehicles.
