===Stateless Possessors of Nuclear Weapons===
* {{flagicon image|PosolInd.png}} [[Posol Industries]]: Due to unique circumstances involving a lack of capability to maintain nuclear weapons and the foreseen political instability of the nation, Posol Industries was placed under the responsibility of approximately 100 nuclear weapons after the dissolution of Kostromastan. There has been heated debate on whether Volova, one of a number of nations to form from Kostromastan, is the legal successor state to Kostromastan; the current political instability of Volova has left Posol Industries in possession, and it is uncertain whether Posol Industries will relinquish the stockpile back to Volova.
 
== List of Former Nuclear Weapons States==
 
As of 2021, the following countries are states that once possessed nuclear weapons capabilities but have since decommissioned or relinquished their nuclear weaponsthem, or alternatively are nations that no longer exist in the present day:

==Nuclear Non-Proliferation and Decommissioning Programs==
 
=== Axdel ===
NorogradNoroist Axdel began its own nuclear programme during the [[Auroran Imperial War]] after recovering and reverse engineering a number of Morstaybishlian weapons. A small but potent thermonuclear warhead designated 'N-1' was developed, andduring wasthe deployedwar for deployment in a ground-penetrating package on the controversial [[Kevatuul]] satellite. This became the first use of nuclear weapons in warfare on Aurora, when several [[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Ethalrian]] military bases and the city of Ribenstadt were targeted. Postby warthe weapon, and whilst devastating the satellite's unwieldy re-entry vehicles proved to have a low accuracy. Thankfully a retaliatory strike was deorbitedaverted and nopost subsequentwar weaponsas werepart putof intopeace negotiations the satellite was deorbited, further development of space weaponry was abandoned, and NorogradAxdel was made to pay reparations for the damage. This,done however,and didlives notlost. endAxdel Norogradianretained its nuclear weaponsprogram developmentand accumulated stockpile, however, and ata leastfurther fifteen underground and two above ground tests were conducted from 1975-1996,. withThe nation maintained a land and sea based stockpile maintained for the purpose of self-defencedeterrence, eschewing the use of tactical weapons, although it abstained from disclosing the number of warheads at its disposal.
 
After itsthe formationNoroist government fell in 1996, Axdelthe inheritednew 532government Norogradianreported seaa andstockpile landof based532 nuclear warheads, primarily of the N-5 400kt design. In 2000 they agreed to decommission and dismantle the weapons bybefore 2025 as part of thean Axdel-MBE Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty. The weapons were decommissioned in 2019, and are to be dismantled by 2023. However, theThe nation still has a nuclear program as part of its policy of nuclear latency, officially maintainscontinuing to maintain the facilities, materials and technical expertise necessary to quickly design and construct new warheads on demand,. andAxdel is sometimesthus considered a 'paranuclear' or 'nuclear latent' state in this regard.
 
===Salovia===
Line 147 ⟶ 173:
The inheritor nations of Tuvaltastan and Kostromastan agreed to continue the decommissioning program first set out by Salovia, and brought the total stockpile to 250 by 2005. However, the Kost-Tuva War in 2009 and 2010 between the two nations led to the creation of an additional 50 nuclear weapons between the two, and the number has remained at 306 since.
 
=== Ethalria===
 
 
===Aponivia===
 
 
===Oscrelia===
After the [[Thorntonist Oscrelia|Thornton dictatorship]] ended in the wake of the Auroran Imperial War, the new republican Oscrelian government inherited control of Oscrelia's arsenal of 23 land and air-based nuclear warheads. In 1982, in wake of a series of anti-nuclear protests, the government declared that it would be dismantling its entire nuclear arsenal from 1984 to 1986, and invited inspectors from the [[Auroran Continental Assembly]] to observe and verify Oscrelian nuclear disarmament.
Line 158 ⟶ 179:
Oscrelia was declared free of nuclear weapons by 1986, but remained a paranuclear state until it dismantled its enrichment facilities in 1992, once again under the eyes of ACA inspectors.
