Thesis

The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the main turning point in starting the arms race; the destruction the bombings caused led the unyielding Japanese to surrender while instilling fear in the soviet union leading them to create their own bomb which started the arms race and changed diplomacy.
