I have the Nuclear Arms Race(1945-1970)

starts with atomic bombs...Klaus Fuchs gave a lot of inside secrets....Once the soviets had an atomic bomb people were nervous that war was gonna break out...hydrogen bombs were built and were even more powerful then two atomic bombs(1945-70)...Peace attempts were happening so nuclear war wouldn't break out...

Massive Retaliation-You have nuclear weapons and you use them against him and once you get attacked you attack back so people stop attacking because they know they'll just get attacked back....

Nuclear Test Ban treaty...just get into treaties that would try to reduce nuclear weaponry...
