Its actually the Germans dressed as the English, retribution for France planning on nuking them if the cold war got hot. Also it wa as all of Germany not just the Eastern half.
There is no* energy stored holding it together, just as there is no energy released when splitting a brick from the ground or splitting two magnets.
*The energy stored in the electrical repulsion of the protons is much much less than the energy required to break the strong force bonds amongst the protons and neutrons, so energy is consumed rather than released in a split.
Doesn’t splitting helium into hydrogen absorb energy?
Fusion bombs fuse hydrogen into helium.
France just happened to get nuked by the English at that very moment. It was unrelated to the helium situation

Yeah, you are right. You don’t energy for fusing elements heavier than iron and you definitely don’t get energy from fission of helium-4.
There should still be lots of energy stored holding it together. It’s just incredibly hard to split.
