Why bomb Nagasaki instead of Tokyo?
Tokyo was the capital of Japan during World War II and still is. So it seems like if you want to do some real damage, you would bomb the capital, right? Not quite, because both Hiroshima and Nagasaki (atomic bomb targets) were major industrial cities. Nagasaki was the last city that the US wanted to bomb, it was an effective place to drop a bomb, because Mitsubishi had a huge factory there. Before Mitsubishi became a car company, they created the Japanese Zero plane, considered to be the best Japanese fighter plane. Mitsubishi mass-produced the Japanese Zero right in Nagasaki, so it would eliminate the idea that Japan would retaliate.
