''(See also: [[Auroran Imperial War#Nuclear Arms Race|Auroran Imperial War]])''
Nuclear weapons were first devised by the Ethalrian Empire in 1953 during the Auroran Cold War, a period of political tensions among the major powers of [[Aurora]] during the years between the [[Great War]] and Auroran Imperial War. Since then, the number of states possessing nuclear weapons has gradually increased, as have the explosive yields and capable travel distance of these weapons. Historically uranium has been the most common fissile material used in nuclear weapons, though plutonium also sees some use. Nuclear weapons have been deployed in land, sea, and air-based systems, and were even deployed in outer space during events leading up to and during the [[Auroran Imperial War]]. Packilvania conducted its first nuclear test in 1966 Wusul Kabir under the Packilvanian Communist Party. It began a rapid program of nuclear acquisition as part of a nuclear arms race with South Hills. As of 2021, it is the largest nuclear weapons state.

===Salovia===
Line 155 ⟶ 190:
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===
===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.
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.
