Some estimates were that more than 1 million Allied soldiers would have died as well as over a million Japanese during the initial invasion plus the many hundreds of thousands who would have died during "conventional bombing" during invasion preparation.

According to the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the population in Japan in October 1940 was estimated to be 73,114,308; in November 1945 the population was estimated at 71,998,104. Japan was visibly a thriving country that was hit very hard by the bombing.

"Little Boy" dropped over Hiroshima on August 6, 1945.

By end of 1945 -- 140,000 dead

By end of 1950 -- 60,000 more dead of bomb-related causes (often radiation poisoning)

Hiroshima: 200,000

"Fat Man" dropped over Nagasaki on August 9, 1945

By end of 1945 -- 70,000 dead

By end of 1950 -- 140,000 more dead of bomb-related causes

Nagasaki: 210,000

TOTAL: 410,000 people

There is actually no particular number. I read a study from Manhattan Engineer District saying that 66,000 died. The reason no one really knows, is because no one knows the exact population of Hiroshima. Most do believe that the atomic bomb killed around 25% of the population.

i don't think anyone is for sure but just look what happened at pearl harbor. I think the a-bomb saved more lives than it took away.
