A weapon of mass destruction (WMD) is a weapon that can kill and bring significant harm to a large number of humans and animals and/or cause great damage to man-made structures natural structures, or thebiosphere in general. The scope and application of the term has evolved and been disputed, often signifying more politically than technically. Coined in reference to aerial bombing with chemical explosives it has come to distinguish large-scale weaponry of other technologies, such aschemical,biological,radiological, ornuclear. This differentiates the term from more technical ones such as chemical, bilogical, radiological and nuclear weapon, other wise known as (CBRN)
Very iformative but I would've liked if you went into detail with the four types of WMD.
