Einstein was deeply shaken by the extent of the destruction. This time he wrote a public missive to the United Nations. In it he proposed the formation of a world government. Unlike the letter to Roosevelt, this one made no impact. But over the next decade, Einstein got ever more involved in politics - agitating for an end to the arms build up and using his popularity to campaign for peace and democracy.

a)Why did Einstein write a letter to Franklin Roosevelt?

When the Nazis came to power in Germany, Einstein emigrated to the United States of America. Five years later, the discovery of nuclear fission in Berlin had American physicists in an uproar.

Einstein wrote a letter to Franklin Roosevelt to warn him of the consequences of the explosion of an atomic bomb.
