Japan was not going to surrender in WWII and supposedly they were developing their own super weapon. President Harry S. Truman didn't want to take any risks and wanted to end the war immediately. He sent one nuke and Japan didn't surrender he sent a bigger nuke and they surrendered.
In short: Because japan was going to surrender and Truman knew this Because it led to 300,000 unnecessary deaths Because it decimated 2 major cities Because it lead to massive costs for the Japanese government
The cause was the oil embargo.the U.S. said that if Japan doesn't surrender,then we're going to take away your oil.They didn't listen and instead attacked us.
they thought they were going to lose
The Philippines was a strong base for US military power and had to be controlled by Japan if they were going to expand in east Asia without US interference.
The Imperial Rescript was recorded on August 14, 1945, and broadcast on the radio on August 15, 1945 (Japan time). This occurred 5 days after Nagasaki was a-bombed and 9 days after Hiroshima. A different version of the message was given to the military forces. Japan officially signed the surrender documents on September 2, 1945.
No-one forced them, they chose to surrender because they thought they were going to lose.
Whatever sort of policy this is, whether you can surrender it without loss is going to depend on the contract you signed when you took out the policy. You need to read through whatever documents you got when you took out the policy.
