They exist - though are limited to the United States and the former German states.
The resources necessary to create such weapons would be extremely difficult for any state ( aside from the United States ), without significant global trade, to obtain, and so are reserved to the United States ( who do have the resources to manufacture such weapons ) and Germany ( who had them before the end of the war )

Well, I mean there's this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_n ... ns_program
Pretty much solely based on Swedish scientists+engineers, Swedish uranium and Norwegian heavy water, and by 1950 they were ready to begin underground testing
But for RP terms only the US and Germany have nukes, right?
What about nuclear reactors?

Says in the article that Swedes were able to test atomic weapons by the late 50's. The only thing that yall don't really have is the Plutonium, which was eventually manufactured to sufficient amounts. So, with the relativly stable situation in Scandinavia and IRL historical precedence, yall could have atomic weapons by the early 60's.
And yeah, reactors are cool. But I mean, with Norway's natural oil reserves and Finland's generous coal deposits I wouldnt see the point in such an expensive venture - but what ever.

The US has/had generous oil and coal reserves, yet they still pursued nuclear power

America also ( IRL ) was the majority fighting force on three fronts ( Pacific, Italian, and European theaters ) simultaneously, supplied every single allied power ( which was a majority of the world ) and themselves all at the same time, lost less than 450,000 people ( the UK and Romania lost more people than the United States did ), spent the entire war with the highest living standards and wages in the entire world, and invented the nuke.
America is playing the game on easy mode...
But, you know, i'm not saying you can't have nuclear reactors, just pointing out that America has always been super broken and OP.

He's a Wehrmacht Generaloberst, so I guess he would be in OKW Germany. He'd probably be considered a war hero for the execution of Op. Weserübung, and would have been given command during the Civil War.
And no. The OKW isn't going to give him up...

Unlike many other Germans such as the administrator of Reichskommissariat Norwegen Josef Terboven
Quote: "Terboven behaved in the same petty and ruthless way he did as governor of the Rheinprovinz, and was widely disliked, not only by the Norwegians, but also by many Germans"
