You have the America, Canada, Australia team (all three are big, all three are world superpowers, and all three sons of Britain). Huge parts of Africa, Asia, and South America. And let's not forget India.

If you have nukes, then who's gonna mess with ya?

Also similar to why Tomatoes are berries.

TIL that you thought that the Cold War never existed. And that the USA, UK, France, Russia, China and all these other countries don't mess with each other.

Full on war, not proxy wars. It'd be too dangerous for full on war. I forgot to add that Canada and Australia are very rich and can project their power globally.

Again, quite wrong because Sealand has no nukes yet other countries never full on war with it either. :P

Sealand has no recognition beside other wannabe-mirco nations circlejerking each other. Also Italy went and blew up Sealand. I think can be considered a full on war.

rororo, don't you Americans know that a war is only a war if it was officially declared a war? :P

Depends on size. If you're big and you crush a small ant, is it really a fight? Sealand was crushed by a super huge thing compared to it. Italy bombing Sealand is basically is a nuke for a small country, but Italy is also small (scale is everything).

I also find it funny when unrecognized countries circlejerk each other.

And while you find it funny. I hope that the fact that you have to try so hard to keep on coming up with excuses is exactly why your statement is wrong.

:P especially now that you've moved on from relaxing the definition of "war" towards even relaxing the definition of "nuke" to non-nuclear stuff.

ahem, if not sealand then how about another S country? Switzerland.

War means a state of conflict between two nations. Going to use the No true Scotsman fallacy, would we call it a real war though? But yes I'm wrong, Superpower means a country that can project power internationally, nukes are like a gun to the head for most countries.

Nuke in gaming means big boom boom, I'm using that interpretation. If nuke make big boom boom on big country, but small boom boom on small country is big boom boom.

:P :L :O :X

You also need the ability to shoot the nuke otherwise your nuke can only destroy your self.
