any history people out there?

In addition, explain how nuclear weapons are related to the Articles of Confederation.

ok ill try that thanks

I am unsure how either the Articles of Confederation or the Constitution relate to the question of how many nukes we need to feel secure.

At a minimum we need enough so that if someone launches a devastating nuclear attack against us we can:

a) annihilate our attacker, and

b) still have enough left over to threaten annihilation to everyone else who might wish to launch a devistating nuclear attack against us.

It is also useful to maintain parity with the arsenals of enemy powers.

Who's the jackass teacher to assign this goofy assignment?
