the russians are pretty insane i wouldnt put it past them

plus that's fucking stupid if you sent 12000 rockets at once they'd probably all bump into each other and set a giant explosive chain reaction and wipe themselves out

this is why they scattered their nuclear silos all over the place
it wouldnt really be an issue

a single fuck up causing one to blow up on russian soil would send an enormous shockwave through the place and cause 5 to go off which in turn would cause five more and you see where i'm going

there'd probably be about 10 that actually make it out of russian soil and then get picked out of the sky by missile detectors since there's a bit of a likelihood that the US would have cought word of the entirety of europe being fried like an egg

rtcity why are you being such a faggot communist fuck you faggot we should kill you for being a traitor to THE GREATEST NATION ON EARTH

like i said they scattered them pretty far apart
it'd be a non issue mostly except in the fields of missile silos which they had sometimes

because russia happens to have a fuck ton of empty space known as siberia which makes for great cover during a nuclear war

it's pretty hard to scatter 12000+ nukes and make them fuck-up proof

apparently nuclear explosions have a pretty huge blast radius

plus the ruskies were really poor; they relied on quantity whereas america relied on quality. despite having a shitload of land they didn't have AMERICAN QUALITY minerals and resources like the ones from canada since most of europe is a wasteland of urbanization even then

when you cover about 5% of the world, are one of the largest nations in the history of mankind, and literally everything east of the ural mountains is for all intents and purposes a wasteland except a few little regions dotting the map, you tend to have ample space for a nuclear stockpile

pfffffftch 5% of the world is fucking nothing compared to what the huns and roman empire controlled

one nuclear missile's blast radius probably covers 5% of the world, the russians used shitty material and 12,000 at the same time would defenitely call for at least one fuck up with the garbage that they used

that was more because the soviets were incompetent as shit; i'd assume such a fucking large country could simply call upon its allies for all the shit it didnt have but needed and for everything else could work on its own but the soviets pretty badly botched their shit and the only person who i think tried to correct it was literally the last leader of the soviet union

actually the romans were about on par with the russians in the size department iirc
a better example would be the mongols who were fucking huge and pretty decisively fucked russia up

exactly, they wouldn't stand a chance against the USA

the united states was objectively more technologically advanced and had south america and canada as fortresses to keep it safe, nothing could touch it, nothing ever will

mongols had asia, the middle east, and some bits of eastern europe.
romans had europe and turkey
huns didnt really conquer land they just fucked shit up and left and then fucked shit up elsewhere and rinse and repeat
