The US was first to develop, the USSR was not far behind because they had a spy in the US program and Stalin knew about the bomb as soon as Truman did. Truman told Stalin about it and noted how little interest Stalin had in the "new weapon." Though several countries have tested nukes, only the US has used them. Two bombs on Japan in August of 1945 Hiroshima first followed by Nagasaki 2 or 3 days later. Those bombs forced the unconditional surrender of The Empire of Japan

The US was the first to create and the only one to use the power of the Atom. The USSR or Russia created the bomb afterwords ,but they never dropped it in a combat situation. The Atomic weapons are only a great threat but will never see them ever go BOOM. Every country has adopted the nuclear strategy of MAD, Mutual Assured Destruction. Basically If one pushes the button, everyone does
