United states detonated the First Nuclear weapon in history followed by a second detonation august 9th over the city of nagasaki. Six days later, japan surrendered, bringing an end to the second world war. I have received this afternoon a message from the japanese government on august 11th. I deem this reply a full acceptance of the declaration where it specifies the surrender of japan. Well share stories of the people who contributed to this worldaltering event.
