What role did nuclear weapons play in the allied victory during World War 2?
Two were dropped on Japan, which gave them an excuse to end the war quickly without losing face.
What was the atomic bomb?
A nuclear weapon is a weapon which derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions of either nuclear fission or the more powerful fusion. As a result, even a nuclear weapon with a relatively small yield is significantly more powerful than the largest conventional explosives, and a single weapon can be capable of destroying or seriously disabling an entire city.In the history of warfare, nuclear weapons have been used only twice, both during the closing days of World War II. The first event occurred on the morning of 6 August 1945, when the United States dropped a uranium gun-type device code-named "Little Boy" on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The second event occurred three days later when a plutonium implosion-type device code-named "Fat Man" was dropped on the city of Nagasaki. The use of the weapons, which resulted in the immediate deaths of at least 120,000 individuals (mostly civilians) and about two times that number over time, was and remains controversial � critics charged that they were unnecessary acts of mass killing, while others claimed that they ultimately reduced casualties on both sides by hastening the end of the war. (See Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki for a full discussion.)Since that time, nuclear weapons have been detonated on over two thousand occasions, mostly for testing purposes, chiefly by the United States, Soviet Union, United Kingdom, France, People's Republic of China, India and Pakistan. These countries are the declared nuclear powers (with Russia inheriting the weapons of the Soviet Union after its collapse).Various other countries may hold nuclear weapons, but they have never publicly admitted possession, or their claims to possession have not been verified. For example, Israel has modern airborne delivery systems and appears to have an extensive nuclear program (see Israel and weapons of mass destruction); North Korea has recently stated that it has nuclear capabilities (although it has made several changing statements about the abandonment of its nuclear weapons programs, often dependent on the political climate at the time) and Iran was accused by a number of governments of attempting to develop nuclear capabilities, and now acknowledges that it is trying to obtain nuclear power, supposedly for peaceful purposes. South Africa is the only country to have developed an atomic bomb and then renounced possession of them (though several former Soviet Republics gave up their "inherited" nuclear arms after the breakup of the U.S.S.R.) For more information see List of countries with nuclear weapons.Apart from their use as weapons, nuclear explosives have been proposed for various non-military uses.

Why is North Korea a communist country?
In 1945, the Korean Peninsula was divided between a U.S. controlled South Korea and a Soviet controlled North Korea. In the late 1940s, the U.S. kept troops in South Korea but turned over the government to the South Koreans. The Soviets removed troops from North Korea but created a puppet government under the control of a ancestor of Kim Jong Il (they still gave weapons and equipment). As a result, North Korea got a communist government (from Soviet influence) and South Korea got a democratic government (from U.S. influence).

What was the 1995 KEDO North Korea agreement on nuclear reactors?
Then (1995) Pres. Clinton & M. Albright created the KEDO which was a way of buying North Korea Nuclear power plants circumventing US Congress & Senate approval, using mostly US tax money. Even the NY Times thought that this was a wonderful idea. They trusted a country who main export are human organs to only use the reactor for electricity to allow International inspections, promise not to further enrich anything for military nuclear weaponry. Clinton later admitted this was a mistake but they meant well. Then during Bush Hillary had the nerve to say Bush didn't know how to handle a Nuclear North Korea when it was her husband who gave the crazy Dictator the reactors!
Is Korea good?
This is based on a person's point of perspective and Korea isn't fully bad. North Korea only adopted the way of communism through China and also during the Korean War, North Korea only wanted to get rid of the traitors to the south who gave information to Japan during when Japan colonized Korea. North Korea only wanted to restore the former glory of Korea, but it was wrong of them to massacre. South Korea in the change did nothing but only protected those traitors but they knew communism wasn't right and so now they are a republic. Both North Korea and the south isn't bad so overall Korea is good. If you have read the before answers where one person said Korea is a no star country and the other person insulted the other person, those answers were just self perspectives. Indeed Korea is small but look what Korea has accomplished. They made robots, great t.v's, and etc. They made great accomplishments to technology. North Korea made great contributions to military like inventing different weapons and other ways to train soldiers.
