In 1947, after the events of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, the leaders of the worlds largest superpowers met up in a top-secret meeting to discuss the subject of nuclear bombs and their use in warfare. They met up in the city of Bern to keep the meeting a neutral operation. The main question was simple, are nuclear bombs allowed in war? If only the world leaders decided they weren't allowed it could've all been different.
But they didn't.
They made compromises.
They established the Treaty of Bern, which was printed into just 23 copies, and it outlined how nuclear weapons were allowed in warfare, but there was one rule. Each major country was to have one semi-major city spared from the onslaught. This city could not be the country's capital, and had to be agreed on by every country. The U.S.A. chose Cleveland, the United Kingdom chose Aberdeen, and France chose Vichy, to name a few.
But none of those are important (at least for now) to this story. For this, we are talking about what happened after everything went horrible, after everything burned, and after everything was lost to the bomb.
For this, we are talking about what became of the Soviet Union's choice of a city. Sevastopol.
