If we fight with nuclear weapons, at least half the world will be wiped out. Therefore all our weapons and materials for making them will be gone so we will have to go back to simpler ways of fighting.
Hope This Helps U

It means that a nuclear war will end the world.

After millions of years, evolution will start again, then civilization.
and in the early stages of civilization war will be fought with bow and arrows.
