The Japanese living in the US, were ordered to live at camps when the war began with Japan ending with 2 nuclear bombs.

The decisive conclusion of the Pacific War through Japanese unconditional surrender came at due to three factors. The first were Truman's decision to conduct nuclear strikes against Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The second were that Japan risked invasion of its homeland from both the Soviet Union and the United States (the planed but never executed Operation Downfall). The choices between being overrun by the Soviet Union, and ending further nuclear strikes, proved instrumental in the Japanese decision to surrender to the United States.
