- how it couldve been different
- american exceptionalism led to the original ideas that caused the cold war. is claimed to be because the USA wanted to expand overseas. there was also a fear of communism and since the USA is anti communist, they "had to intervine" in the affairs of the USSR. basically saying this was a main cause for the cold war, which is mostly americas fault.
- how it couldve been different continued
- the atomic bomb was used in the beginning of the cold war as a way to deter communism in enemy territory as well as intimidate any enemy of the US and force a surrender from japan. there was also hopes in negotiations with the USSR.
- if the USSR developed the bomb first, then the USA wouldve most likely followed along USSR's footsteps. They would engage in an arms race similiary to how the USSR did during the cold war, to develop our own bomb. This would continue until tensions rose past a boiling point or if a mutual agreement between the USSR and USA happened to avoid another world war.
- if neither side didnt develop the bomb then eventually one of them would due to the future actions of either rival. it was only a matter of time before one country develops one which all depends on who, what, and why.
