Answer

The actual order was issued by the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the War Department [now called the Defense Department], although the authorization of the President was required before they could issue the order.

That is true, but the official order and authorization was issued by President Truman, but he did not know anything about the bomb until after Roosevelt died.

How did Japan end after the war in World War 2?

If you mean what happened to them at the end of WW2 then they were invaded by America (USA) and the USA dropped an atomic bomb on them as a symbol of strength to scare the Japanese and force them to surrender in which they succeeded. The US occupied Japan after dropping the atomic bomb, but it never invaded Japan. The reason for dropping the A-Bomb was to prevent the need to invade.
