Who dropped the bombs first? – Fallout Lore & Theories
The pilot episode of the Fallout series started with a bang with the nuking of America everywhere. This led to the birth of the barren wastelands of post-nuclear America, which we explore later. From that moment to the finale, we can't stop without thinking "Who were the warmongers behind dropping the first nuclear bombs in the Great War?" An answer to this mystery came in the form of an unexpected twist in the series that caught us completely off guard.
In the Fallout season 1 finale, Cooper Howard began to become suspicious of the actions of the Vault-Tec company where his wife worked. Therefore, he decided to spy on his wife and use a secret microphone to find out the truth. Along with Cooper, we also get a clue about the people who may have bombed America to start the Great War.
As Cooper eavesdropped on the conversation between Vault-Tec's senior officials and the other major corporate executives, the truth emerged. The higher ups continued to discuss how much money they could pump out on the brink of world destruction.
