In the event of nuclear war where would be the safest place to be?
My bet is on irrelevant third world countries.
>close to primary food production
>low chance of being targeted because of irrelevance
>global south is closer to the equator so on the off chance nuclear winter is real the weather won’t kill you
thats a pretty sensible strategy i think. i dont have the ressources to leave my province, so ill just pack what i can and go in the mountains
Europe: high up in the swiss alps. No coincidence swiss is neutral, high society and neutral....and expensive.
America:
Mountains in south peru
China or Russia are definitely nuking the Swiss. Recent events have proven they’re not so neutral after all. & they’re definitely not going to leave a nice little vacation retreat spot for western elites to go to after nuclear exchange is complete
Radioactive pollusion will spread by air and rains to everywhere. Sorry ...but there are no safe spots available after nuclear war.
your explanation sounds reasonable, but i will still try to find somewhere safe, even if i die of radiation soon after.
>In the event of nuclear war where would be the safest place to be?
Wherever the Rothschilds will be hiding.
If you want to survive, just do as the people that will start it will do.
UK cause we dindu nuffin
You fell for Cold War fearmongering bro do your research
>The total radioactivity of the fission products is extremely large at first, but it falls off at a fairly rapid rate as a result of radioactive decay. Seven hours after a nuclear explosion, residual radioactivity will have decreased to about 10 percent of its amount at 1 hour, and after another 48 hours it will have decreased to 1 percent.
>Fallout radiation decays relatively quickly with time. Most areas become fairly safe for travel and decontamination after three to five weeks.
I'm always consistently surprised at how scientifically illiterate this board is. It's even worse than a reddit default board.
You want to be South of the equator. We effectively have atmosphere with an invisible separation and if nuclear war happens in the northern hemisphere then far less of the fallout will travel south.
You want to be near fresh water.
That's it.
The best places would be New Zealand or Tasmania (island off Australia).
Unironically, Argentina. The country can be a basketcase at times but it has good agricultural productivity which has been rising. Southern hemisphere so low levels of fallout. Relatively isolated and neighboring countries are mostly able to take care of themselves. Maybe some trouble with Paraguayan and Bolivian migrants but not intolerable, especially in a post-nuclear war world in which shooting invaders is the default.
Argentina will get mass migration from every nation north of it. Tasmania and New Zealand are are least geographically isolated and green.
In the midst of a nuclear explosion
at ground zero
the survivors will envy the dead
That's true for air bursts. For ground bursts, the radioactivity is a problem for a long time. Air bursts are good for destroying cities, but for hardened military targets, they're going for ground bursts.

Southern Hemisphere.
your mom's house
New Zealand is unlikely to be nuked but Australia absolutely will catch a couple. Still, compared to anywhere in the northern hemisphere, NZ and Tasmania would be good choices even if they get some regional fallout.
This.
Argentine & Australia. Africa too but only niggers live there.
Probably mars, thats why all this multi biloners what to fuck off this planet.
Australia might be ok. I think they've got some unspoken deal that they won't house nukes and in exchange would not be a target of strategic nuking.
How would where it explodes change the amount of radioactive material being released? I imagine a ground burst would be more concentrated in the soil while an air burst would spread more by wind and water, but we are talking about the same amount of dangerous fallout, yeah?
According to some prophecy. I will be fine. My country will triump. In fact.
Meant for
Scandinavia would be fucked. Nuclear fallout is a bit over exaggerated but all winds push to Scandi, you'll receive the brunt of radioactive atmosphere and dust
It doesnt even matter what will kill most people is nuclear winter with nice cozy temperature of - 20 C near equator for about a year.
probably my little hellhole, stay away from the NCR(or Davao) though since there's a slight chance it will be targeted as a high density population center
The safest place is where God is which is to be in Christ. Everyone will face death.
pattaya. there is an millennia-old understanding between the east and west that pattaya will always be a neutral zone for r&r.
are you memeing us or are you legitimately this fucking retarded
Scandi would be fucked regardless. My country for example is not even close to food self sufficiency. The collapse of global supply chains will have the place looking like mad max in no time
I’ve read (or more like heard about) some recent studies that call the concept of nuclear winter into question in the first place. I think it’s just another piece of Cold War fear mongering. If it’s an observable reality I think it won’t be as dramatic as it’s portrayed (but it definitely will be more noticeable closer to the poles).
>be in Christ
faggggggggggg
I think it just depends of how many nukes will be used.
the safest place to be will be at the epicenter. lowest probability of having a bad time
