Once war breaks out, no country in the world will be spared.
The indiscriminate attack of nuclear bombs would reset human civilization to the Iron Age. Even though there are underground nuclear bunkers, restoring the current level of industry won't be achieved in a short period.
Such a scenario is something no country wants to see, which is why nuclear weapons are also referred to as the ultimate deterrent.
The significance of nuclear weapons is not in their use, but in intimidation.
You may choose not to use them, but you absolutely cannot be without them.
Now humanity is entering the interstellar era—a leap forward that no country wants to be left behind in.
If Xia Country doesn't bring other countries along, no one knows to what extent they will go.
Whether from the perspective of human civilization's progress, national level, or Candy Technology, global cooperation is the best outcome.
Don't think that Xia Country seems to be at a big disadvantage; it's not the case.
