How did the war end?
World War 2 finally came to an end on the 8th of May 1945, when Adolf Hitler had committed suicide. Even though the World War 2 was officially declared over in Europe and other western countries in the east Japan carried on with the blood shed, and killing thousands of people. Japan, did not give up so easily and the fact that Germany had surrendered did not stop Japan in anyway. Japan had two Atomic bombs dropped on the country, Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the 6th and 9th of August 1945. The Atomic bomb was a turning point in World War 2, just when everyone had thought things couldn’t get any worse, a single bomb could do more damage and kill more people than a thousand bombs of other bombs. Soon after this huge event Japans government conversed with Emperor to try and convince him to surrender. The emperor Hirohito finally agreed with the government. Hirohito then made a personal radio announcement of the decision. On the 10th of August 1945 Hirohito agreed to surrender and it wasnt until the 15th August 1945, Hirohito and Japan formally surrendered ending World War 2 for the entire world.
