3. The golden bridle

How to survive a Nuclear apocalypse, a thread :
Before we start, I want to point out that the atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were miniscule compared to modern nukes. In 1961 the Soviet successfully developed one of the most deadliest nuclear bomb ever existed, the Tsar Bomb, 3000 times more powerful than in WW2.
The moment u hear this siren, head to the nearest shelter immediately, if your city has no bunker, go to the basement or the middle of a solid building, stay away from windows, outer walls and roof. Time is of the essence, you have minutes before the bomb drop so be hast.

A summary of what is happening between Ukraine and Russia :
Basically Ukraine wants to join NATO, but president Putin doesn't like this because if Ukraine were to join NATO, they would be able to put missiles and military bases right next to Russia doorstep. It will take only few
minutes for a nuclear warhead to reaches Moscow. This is extremely alarming especially when we consider the fact that the tensions between NATO and Russia had not cooled down since the cold war. The old scar from past conflicts still remain between these 2 superpowers.
NATO is a military alliance formed in 1949 by 12 countries, including the US, Canada, the UK and France. During the cold war, there were 2 opposing sides : NATO (most Western countries) against the Soviet alliances. That's why even today these 2 superpowers are still rivals.
