Nuclear Deterrence

A while ago, as I played a game called Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the concept of Nuclear Deterrence was brought to my knowledge. Curious to know more about the subject, I went on google and searched for further explanation on it, and I found out that the game actually did a really good job explaining what Nuclear Deterrence is.
In a nutshell, Nuclear Deterence is a theory which says that the best way for a state to prevent a nuclear war is actually... having nuclear weapons. It may sound crazy at first, but that makes sense if you think it through. The thing is that, according to this theory, when two states that possess nuclear weapons engage in a clash, they will most likely find a diplomatic solution to solve their differences, since a nuclear war would most likely completely destroy both sides. So, the justification adopted by most states the possess nuclear warheads nowadays is that by having them they also have the power of retaliation in case another state attack them first, and by having this power they will probably never be actually attacked.
Of course, there is a lot of criticism towards this theory, but there is no wonder that it makes sense - especially if we consider that the fear of being attacked by the other country was what probably prevented the USA and the Soviet Union from attacking each other during the Cold War.
It may sound crazy, but probably the existence of nuclear weapons was the reponsible for us to have much of the peace that we have in the world nowadays.

Nuclear Deterrence

A while ago, as I was playeding a game called Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the concept of Nnuclear Ddeterrence was brought to my knowledge.

We often like using continuous tenses when we talk about things happening at the same time - "as I was doing this, this happened". It's not always necessary but here it feels much more natural to me.

Curious to know more about the subject, I went on gGoogle and searched for further explanation on it, and I found out that the game actually did a really good job explaining what Nnuclear Ddeterrence is.

Very very very common to say "google", but properly speaking it's a name and deserves a capital letter!

"another state" is singular.
