well, a long time ago, there was a global conflict around the world, it was called world war II, now during this war, america greatly progressed its technology, but there was still difficulty in defeating both the japanese and germans. the germans ultimately fell before america went after the japanese, now by this time oppenheimer had nearly created the bomb, as US troops were diverted to the pacific, it became clear that the japanese would not surrender unless dire losses occured, their steadfast attitudes and honor would not permit it. the bomb, as awful as it was, became necessary for once, and only once in history

Nuclear weapons were made to impose Fear. Apparently in has worked pretty well so far. We've had Nukes since the 40's and only TWO have ever been used in WAR.

let's see the U.S. orginally made their bombs for closing ww2 faster and beating germany to making it.
the Russia made theres to counter the U.S's
China made theres for basicly the same thing and because they also had sour relations with soviet's
France and britain made theres to protect themselves against communism.
israel made theres to protect themselves against arab states
India made theres to protect themselves from pakistan and to stay eutral in the cold war and when pakistan found that out they made nukes and for nationalism too.
North Korea made theres to black mail and to make a last punch if the USA invaded.
most countries just want the power that these weapons give like russia has a crappy military but is still considered a great power just for it's stocks of nukes.

Well the first ones were made to prove they could (kinda like climbing everest) now fear motivates some. Power motivates others. Money motivates others.
