9 agos 1945 anni - The U.S. drops the atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan ending WWII

Descrizione:

The U.S. dropped the atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan on August 9, 1945 after dropping one the day before on Hiroshima, Japan. Before the bombs, Japan bombard the U.S. with Kamikaze attacks as well because they refused to surrender, so they bombed and tried to destroy the U.S. The atomic bombs the U.S. dropped were significant (especially the second one) because the bombs killed 80,000 people each and then caused Japan to surrender. The U.S. had a choice to drop these devastating bombs, but president Truman took the step in ending the war. The bombs were also significant because the war could have gone on for much longer and the Soviet Union was also getting ready to bomb Japan, but the U.S. had had eneough and wanted to end the war once and for all.
