The question is though....
why?
After WW2, the US had nuclear weapons. Russia soon developed them, and the cold war struck.
Would there really have been a war in Europe among western Europe during the cold war? When the majority of the countries, at least starting out were requiring US help to rebuild... and feared Russia capturing the continent?
What stopped Europeon agression was europe no longer being the top dogs.
If you were to give ANY orgnaization the nobel peace prize for stopping wars in Europe... it'd be Nato. (Or you could give a peace prize to the cold war. Stupid, but more fitting then the EU.)
Germany and France weren't going to go to war with each other when they were in a huge military alliance vs russia.
