Imagine 200 years later, the Chinese hiding in the bunkers started to come out, rebuilding their homeland. And then some survivor in America launched nukes at them again
It's like with Japan, but with a little delay

@@distressedbrain Japan was nuked twice.... So China too just with a bit delay of 200 years. Don't know. UPS problem or something like that. The big question is: after that will the survivors also evolve into tentacle loving weirds?
Honin Akecheta Robbin Williams reference?
I like to think that someone had a "Bring your child to work day" and their kid just pushed the launch button haha
Obviousely this is the fact
A descendant of ghandi pressed the button
I mean it’s kind of a funny joke but not to anyone who knows it’s not that simple
😂
@@Monkforilla r/whoosh
I love the theory that vault tech did it. Also the fact you don't see a missle or a plane dropping the bomb in 4 implies that it was planted then remotely detonated
Based on how far away the explosion is, you wouldn’t see a missile, and that’s how probably all or at least most nukes are used in the fallout universe
Even though the Vault Tec one is the dumbest one possible. The company that made money by selling seats in Vaults and contracts with the US Government willingly chose to end the world and thus kill its ability to make money? And yeah, you wouldn't have seen a plane drop the bomb. The plane would've been a speck in the sky at 42,000 feet. As for a missile, by the time the Sole Survivor would've been able to see anything, it would've been a mere warhead falling from the sky with no smoke trail or anything to indicate its location.
Guess what just got revealed 💀💀
@@randomlyentertaining8287it’s actually the opposite of what you claim. Vault Tec makes their sales by selling vault positions yes, but the U.S and China were working on a peace agreement, which would have put Vault Tec out of buisness because the end of the world would no longer be a fear. Vault Tec had to make sure the peace agreements didn’t workout because their enitre company relies on “selling the end of the world.”
Despite this fact, I don’t believe Vault Tec launched the first bomb, I believe they planned on it but for a later date. In the Fallout show they make it clear that Vault Tec planned to launch the first bomb, but they don’t actually confirm it, they only confirm that they planned on it
@@StormyTeaI still feel like they didn’t drop the first bomb. Barb wouldn’t have let her daughter and husband out knowing when the bombs dropped unless she didn’t care but it doesn’t make that much sense

Not skin colour,facial features. You're supposed to use only the top option in skin colour. There aren't many options,either way.

This aged like wine
Tbh even tho in the show Vault-tech said that they should drop the bombs themselves, we don’t actually know that they did. Heck, in the opening scene, copper and his daughter were out when the bombs dropped. If his wife knew they were gonna drop it, would she have let them both out
@@clumsycaden5708 but in the end episode, Cooper is asking where his family is, indicating that he doesn't know what happened to them (duh) even tho they were all supposed to be in the vault. An even bigger question, how would neither of them know where their daughter is? I have a big feeling that they did drop them. I'm excited to see where this goes tho, cuz it contrasts with Fallout 3 Mothership Zeta and the Nuclear Launch Codes, and the fact that in Megaton, Myrna DOES say that the bomb (with the vault-tec logo) wasn't actually being dropped YET, but was being CARRIED by a Pilot when the bombs fell
@@tierstinwilliams71 mmmm interesting. Well I agree with you, the show will definitely be very fun in the upcoming seasons
Another missed detail is that he and his wife had divorced which is why he is working the party. It would make sense if the bombs dropped she sends out agents to get her daughter and only the daughter, hence why he never knows where they go.
This aged fine. Still a good informative video and theory.
Also the fallot show season one does not show proof that vault tec dropped the 1st bomb. So far we've only seen that they considered it
That’s crazy because that first script that got leaked 6 years or more go about the first fallout movie some of the ideas that they had in that script made it into the fallout tv show years later
"We find a terminal that can be used to fire nukes at China."

Seems to me like the simplest answer might be that the Aliens, having failed to secure the launch codes, just dispatched a couple of their smaller craft to fly un-stealthed ballistic arcs over the poles. That should have been enough to put a spark to the powder keg.
the aliens had nothing to do with it, that voice recorder about the launch codes was supposed to have been removed, but they forgot to remove the subtitles. its considered non canon that the aliens did it
Thank God they didn't go with Aliens. I think the alien route would have be completely stupid and undermine the message of human self-destruction.
@@googleisevil8958 However we humans finally destroy ourselves, my bet is that it WILL be completely stupid.
I have mixed feelings on how to deal with Zhao . Like yeah it’s been 200 years , the war is long over but the man launched 5 nukes that killed millions of innocent people (entire families , women and children , the elderly)
Plus your character wouldn't be removed from such thoughts as blame. To them it wasn't that long ago life was good but then BOOM! I don't think anyone could blame them for opening fire on one of the guys that pushed the button that lead to the end of the world. For a wastelander the question of who fired first really doesn't matter as it was 200 years ago but for your character it was rather recent and also because of the bombs their spouse was murdered and their son stolen.
just like use
Yea but he regreted it. He also was ordered to
@@admiralalex1000 firing nukes back is just as if not more so despicable than firing initially, youre boned anyways why drag millions of innocents along with you? You have nothing to gain and millions of innocent lives to lose.

Oh, Sorry, Karen was a bitch anyways.
Here we are years later with the Fallout show finally confirming Vault-Tec dropped the bombs.
Confirmed they thought about it, not that they did
We know so far from the show that it was their intention to drop the bombs. We dont know 100% yet that went through with the plan.
@@-Apoptos- To me they did confirm they did it, if they weren't the ones controlling when the bombs were dropped then how would all of their most important people have been transported to the vault in time... You can't transport hundreds if not thousands of top level Rob-Co, Vault Tec etc etc employees into vaults if you're taken by surprise.
The woman who suggested it in the show was coopers wife and if she had an idea of when the bombs would be dropped why would she allow cooper and his daughter to be at a birthday party when her plan was to get them into a “good vault”. As others have stated it was a plan they thought of but we still don’t know who dropped the bombs.
@@Pohnzo Time for a theory. It was Mr. House who dropped the bombs, so he can take over New Vegas and go to the one place uncorrupted by capitalism......SPACE!
14:56 this aged real well
And now it’s canon?
@@119AgentYup. Personally it’s better. Shows the world that the USA’s lies about China and Russia were incorrect, and the USA was no better than the rest of the world.
Quite a good twist ngl.
@@coolxg4357 Here comes the contrarian "everyone is the same guy" present in every youtube comment section.
@@coolxg4357 Uh... Russia isn't really talked about in Fallout. It's only ever China in lore. We don't know what Russia does, I'm assuming their beef is more or less with Europe. The hell are you talking about?
Besides, if anything it shows that both governments were looking to have peace talks but a group of elites wanted the war to keep going. The American "elite" is hardly it's public or government.
@@googleisevil8958 Yes and no. Even today, the American (and British) elite has a big say in the governmental affairs. No doubt some British petrol suppliers (shell, BP) and American ones (of which I don’t know) saw Iraq, Libya and the rest of the Middle East as a way to get cheap oil and sell it as a resource. It would make sense too.
Point is, the elite usually has a very large say in the government, especially in a capitalist or feudalist society, due to the ease of earning money without restriction.

I deeply enjoy Oxhorn’s videos, but they are RIDDLED with ads, and they always strike at the “cliffhanger” moments in the lore. Kind of takes me out of the immersion and I have to rewind to re-immerse. It’s an annoyance to me.
@@StruttinStrayCat Just use uBlock Origin??
Secretly, they were trying to make both bombs hit each other to make some crazy fireworks, and missed
Hahahahahaha
That’s a thing. But they do very rarely miss and are not exactly nukes. Just missiles
Lol
And the people not involved with it mistake it as an attack from each other and create a misunderstood rivalry
i like the idea of a ZAX computer launched the nuclear bombs

Irony is the 2 nukes U.S. dropped on Japan had to be baby sat by a nuclear physists all the way to Japan as a nuclear bomb is more fickle and prone to did out if 1 atom is out of place then regular explosives......and the world current nuclear war heads are settling with age, banged around with practice runs, have decaying critical mass material, and isn't baby sat by nuclear physists

At one point in fallout new Vegas you learn that over 70 nukes where launched at Las Vegas and the surrounding area but most where disabled by a emp around 9 were shot down the rest hit the area but none hit Vegas itself
They didn’t hit because I intervened
@@dm-vt1rs our hero 🙌
@@dm-vt1rs they didn’t hit because i said so
It's tricky to say what 'nuke' means in those terms, especially given Mini-Nukes are a thing, and the Chinese likely had equivalents.
@@dm-vt1rs you did not beg for the nukes to not hit you, the nukes begged not to hit you
In fallout 4 in far harbor you can find a terminal in the submarine base controlled by the children of atom. On it is a command that sends u.s. nuclear subs towards china in a preemptive strike. The commander of the base ignored the order and was quoted as being the cause of chinese retaliation since they weren't able to completely wipe them out.
They should make a spin-off game that’s based in China to see their side of the events. Or even just a prequel spin off that ties all the loose ends up about how things occurred
A Fallout Canada and a Fallout Mexico would be nice too.

I want a Fallout tv show set as a prequel. You could call it "Before the Fallout." You could start from the Resource Wars to when the bombs fell.
Or a game set on the time before the bombs, it would be neat
Or maybe like a fictional documentary explaining the whole ordeal with the war

@@superjonh1000 a 1950s esque "documentary" made by vault-tec of the sino-american war in the fallout universe would be awesome. They could justify it by issuing it to all vaults in america so later generations still in the vaults could use it for information on what happened to the world and why they are in underground vaults
Maybe a web series or a Netflix original, just something to help clear things up
"fallout technology is pretty cold war" Actually thats about the same level of sophistication as the current launch systems. Seriously look it up, they still use 8 inch floppy disks.
Is it weird that I find that oddly reassuring? It takes forever to load up something like a commador 64. That little bit of delay could mean the difference between a nuclear war and us being ignorant in our beds sleeping peacefully.
Because of mechanical reliability and resistance to hacking.
I mean it's unlikely to be hacked and must remain that way in case of emp
@@Kanelle88 if you live in the USA, it's not, mutually assured destruction is the only thing that saved our butts during the cold war and having quick nuclear mizsles is important to ensuring we can react quickly if a country attacks us first(no but seriously mutually assured destruction isn't MAD if all our nukes are hit before they can even get off the ground). Also america has a no strike first policy so it literally has to have quick nukes if subject to a preemptive strike.
Oh good... At least a millennial can't launch em
Didn’t the Fallout show basically confirm Vaulttec launched the nukes?
Yup
More like implied it. We still don't know who did what.
Vault tec is shown to have **planned** to launch them to guarantee it, but there’s still some hints suggesting that it was possibly not the case
Note how in the show itself, the nukes were dropping even though Barb’s daughter wasn’t with her, and the likes of Mr. House etc weren’t ready with all their measures yet
It could still be China, the Enclave (suggested by the presence of the shadowy figures in the Vault tec meeting that Barb seemed to notice), or anything else
Really smart move by the show to still keep it vague

Why would we take it as canon?
in fact most true fans will pretend the show never existed!
Tim Cain (original creator of Fallout)
revealed in a recent interview, to end the decades-old discussion, that China was responsible for the first bomb.
I prefer the original creator's canon.
and it makes more sense given the reasons presented in this video.
@@1hyugaclan1no it's not
What if it was just because a computer glitch? In the mid-80's nuclear warfare could have started as Soviet computers detected 4 nukes launched by the US.However the man in charge said that no one would launch 4 nukes and that it must bea glitch....But if the same happened to either the US or China they wouldn't think about that since they were already fighting each other.
Yea dude i heard about that one.
The soviet union onky needed to press a red button to react with their own bombs.
But the soviet man in charge decided to ask before acting. And thus a nuclear war was prevented.
Could be a self aware super computer created by vault tec.
It malfunctioned because of glitches and errors and launched a nuclear bomb at china, wich reacted with bombs of their own.
@@Little-She-Devil This theory can be considered because on Automatron we learned that robobrains are impressed by their capability of storage and processing data, but Ada also tells us that those robots have serious problems on data processing, we see one Robobrain tells us that he decided to kill all human to save them. Maybe US government has install a tons of brains used on Robobrain as processing and storage hardware but they are glitched and give false alerts.
And also I'm wonder the target of 5 ICBMs the submarine on FO4, I can guess 1 is Glowing Sea, 1 on the Vault 87 on FO3, 1 warhead may strike to Pentagon but it is broken and land to the placed called Megaton, but where is another 2?
@@superspies32 the problem with robots is they can glitch and so take wrong action.
Indeed 1 bomb landed in megaton. I guess the other 1 is in new vegas. With the wild wasteland perk. Since it is the exact same bomb model as used in fallout 3.
It can’t be Mojave as House had been defended Vegas from dozens of nukes and only few went through. The one we find is most likely one of the few which house failed to intercept.

Sometimes I wish I knew what happened to other countries besides the USA when the bombs fell, but I think not knowing is part of the fun of the Fallout universe!
Well we know that Mexico got nuked considering Raul.
MrHuntHunt
We kind of know about some places, like the UK where Tenpenny came from, he came to "make his fortune" and that suggests if he came to the Mojave or anywhere in the states, the UK must be in a state. Plus Europe had a massive civil war after they'd finished fighting in the middle East for oil. What happened to places like Africa and South America where they had no missiles maybe?
Dom Morrison yeah that's true, I don't mind small hints here and there, I'm just glad we never get complete answers about every country:)
Pretty sure that third world countries were not affected by the nukes but they are still affected by the stock market crash when major countries disappeared
If nothing else, we see what happened to the globe in Mothership Zeta. (Spoilers) Also, we know that a large chunk of the world got re-screwed by a death ray from outer space.
I pretty sure Toyota is responsible. Isn’t their phrase “let’s go places” a little odd?

It was obviously San Marino that first dropped the bombs. The U.S. and China just assumed it was each other. San Marino was angry because larger countries just kept making fun of how small it is.
I've only played Fallout 3 and 4, so what is San Marino?
Obi Wan Kenobi San Marino is a very small country on the east coast of Italy.
OR, it was the nazis, like in the movie, The sum of all fears. Or the moon nazis did so China and the USA destroy each other so they could return to Earth and build the Fourth Reich.
Mr. Sabaton have you recently seen Hellsing Ultimate Abridged? You sound like Alucard.
Outskirts of Infinity
I believe it was Sealand, who was mad at everyone for saying it is a British Oil rig
I'd love a fallout game based in China from the chineese POV and see how things are going on the other side if the glowing sea
Hi from 2024 and years in the making, According to the new show Vault Tec started the Great War
It’s alluded to but it could be that just became their goal . Just like china or any of the other countries, I feel like if it was their idea then they would’ve had everyone in the vaults before the bombs dropped.
11:00 10/10 acting
It’ll be crazy if all of this was due to a satellite error. Like what happened in 1982 I believe, when Soviets satellites “Detected” a ICBM being launched from the US. But in reality, light from the sun reflected off a cloud at the right angle, for it to be thought as a ICBM.
And to think that the world almost gone to WWIII because of a mere error in the satellites, thank goodness they decided to wait for a confirmation.
The Russian who didn't fire those nukes is easily the biggest hero of modern humanity and barely anyone knows he even existed
The Russian officer who went with his gut and did not permit retaliation should have statues of him on every street corner of ever nation
@@UnholyWrath3277 yeah because control rooms and government agencies rely on one person to run their nuclear program haha.
That cloud looks like a bird. Ooh, that one looks like a car. That one looks like a nuclear launch. And that one looks like a cow.
It wasn’t covered here but in NV the nuke centered in megaton has a vault-tec logo painted on the side. Additionally, in vault 88 we find uranium deposits which would explain their ability to source uranium
I love your voice for the fallout setting videos. It has a 50's vibe to it. Great video!
Writers: let's leave this detail intentionally ambiguous
Internet: LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT IT COULD BE ENDLESSLY
That's why they do it. To get people talking about their game.
The aliens made the bombs drop, also created vault tec to make experiments on the humans, PLOT TWIST!
LemonRanger1877 I wish I went through the comments before I posted mine because I said the same thing
Peter Griffin we are too smart for this small world
This...actually makes sense
LemonRanger1877 vault tec made the aliens
LemonRanger1877 they wouldn’t make vault tech
One of the old fallout games said it was actually vault tec shenanigans that triggered the war. Tensions where already high and vault tec seemed to think nuclear war was good for them being a vault company and all.
I genuine think it was Vault tec because even in fallout three remember that city with the nuke in the middle, there’s a vault Tech logo and China could’ve had relationships with Vault tec and vault tec antagonize them to launch nukes at America and I think vault tec wanted the nukes to come so they can test the vaults and show how good they can be used for the public even in fallout 76. There’s a nuke there that hasn’t been activated. And it’s just in the ground. With the vault tec logo on it.
"Is they really China?" is probably one of the best lines I've heard in a lore video.
IS THEY?
"Is 'they' really China?" is the proper quote
You forgot to mention the warheads that House's defense system managed to defeat.
Something8830 care to explain?
Pot Head Exactly, and with massive Lazer cannons on the roof of the Lucky 38.
n bo Seeing as the devs on New Vegas had a very limited time slot in which to make the game, they likely would have fleshed the desert out far more than they did if they could.
n bo If anything the infrastructure would be more intact due to both the fact that there was a missile defense system in place along with the fact that Las Vegas is in a desert which would mean there would be little environmental decay due to the low precipitation.
3 and 4 were written by Bethesda. That's really all you need to know. For better or worse, depending on your tastes, those game worlds were built to be playgrounds for the player, not to be immersive settings representative of an actual post nuclear war world.
And now the TV show has told us who shot first...
When you push the launch command in the terminal you can clearly the sound of a rocket launch. The Minuteman missile uses solid rockets for propulsion. Solids can't easily be stopped once they are lit. Perhaps the missile did launch but without proper targeting data it landed in the ocean or somewhere else and some poor settlement in Canada got blown away.
The “precious bodily fluids” line is homage to Dr. Strangelove.
I thought it was A boy and his dog
Oh fuck yeah
Or his unemployed proctologist brother Dr. StrangeGlove
“If you gaze at me much longer we might as well exchange fluids!”
My bad, wrong place for a halo quote 😂
Chinese survivors in china: Finally we can rebuild our country!
Some dude in a blue jumpsuit: Hmmm gonna be NO on that one 2:40
When I tried to launch the nukes "YES YES YES YES YES .... Fuck boring"
coming back knowing this is canon now
Hey Oxford quick question, do you have a podcast. Because you are awesome at these narratives. I play fallout 3, new vegas and 4, your narratives and theories are what kindles my blazing love for Fallout.
News and the internet: *ABOUT IRAN AND USA TENSION* *WW3*
RUclips recommendation : *WHO DROPPED THE BOMB FIRST?*
almost expect it to all happen 2077 ngl lol

Based on the Fallout TV show, I guess we have a new answer.
Wait robots lazer guns and flying cars and robot suits but no cellphones
Maybe they couldn't figure out the technology? Or they couldn't make them small enough without being nuclear powered or the hard drive and circuit board being too large.This is a 50's style universe after all, most of the technology is mechanical, or very simple...
No one had invented the transistor until 2067 due to the discovery of nuclear energy and war. Well that's the rumor. Micro electronics was not invented anyways.
@@nathenbosher1067 Microprocessors probably were around but very primitive, hence why the pip-boy is small enough to be carried on your person, but not super-tiny or more powerful than a 1980s home computer.
They have home phones because in fallout 4 I have picked up telephones but no flip phones or anything snaller
That's the whole point, lol. Micro electronics was never invented apart from the pip-boy, which was the smallest human technology could get. That's why the machines were big, bulky and Extremely inefficient as the nuclear era combined with fossil fuels brought in so much energy that humanity didn't care to be more efficient which led to the exhaustion of the resources followed by the resource wars, the Sino-American war and finally the Great War.
By the time humanity actually decided to something real about the energy crisis (developing fusion tech), it was already too late.

Fuckin ads bro 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If you look in fallout 3 the bomb has a vault tech logo
watching this today is a bit chilling. Dont know about you guys but ive been saving my bottle caps.
I would love to get some fallout spin-off. Like a neo-noir detective game, where you pursue a conspiracy that leads to the gr8 war at the end. You would see that dirty corrupted "cold-war" world of USA version. Another one would be a game where you play lets say as a soldier just after the bombs dropped. Here we could make it kind of survival horror, using first feral ghouls and other mutants to build a proper atmosphere. Man i would just love some creative spin offs
Nah what about a fallout online about 4 times the size of fallout 4 .... xD
