Like ancient Sparta, not in their nature.
Japan did not surrender during World War 2 because it is not in the Japanese fighting man's makeup to surrender, even when they cannot win. They will fight until they die. Even when they gave up, they never used the word surrender.
They didn't know about the atomic bomb. They still though they could kick our a..... Look what happened on the Battan death march. They had no respect for Americans.
PS I will gladly remove any offensive word, but inflammatory? Come on that was a real war. They didn't pussy foot around or worry about PC language. I know guys who were in that war. Try talking to them. See what they had to say.
A good friend of mine was a B29 mechanic. One day he saw something that he had never seen before. He saw a bomb that was so big that it would not even fit under a B29. They had to dig a pit for the bomb and then pull the B29 over it in order to load it. There were a lot of extra guards around. At the time he did not know what it was. It was the atomic bomb.
Correction - The Japanese thought their bombing of Pearl Harbor had destroyed our whole Pacific fleet. They also controlled most of the Pacific theatre, making them one of the largest extended empires in history. However, they did not know the power of our industrialism or the extent of the Manhattan Project's work. They assumed that our war efforts were tied up in other areas of the world and an attack on Japan seemed very implausible. They saw the Americans and moreover the American Federal Government as too weak and ineffective to respond to attacks on home soil. In conclusion, our quick reaction in the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, caused an even quicker surrender on the part of the Japanese due to the fear of their nation being extinguished from history altogether from our Atomic Bombs.
Like Spartans, surrender was never an option for men of the Imperial Army.
The victor can refuse to accept a surrender.
Japan surrendered after 2 bombs.
You will need to decide if it was bad, (it killed a lot of people) or something that had to be done. Japan attacked the US without warning, and had been at war with the US for about 3 years and 9 months. The US had demanded the surrender of Japan, and Japan had refused. After two atomic weapons were dropped, Japan decided to surrender.
No, Japan didn't immediately refuse after the bombing of Hiroshima. After the bombing, Emperor Hirohito (the Japanese leader during the Second World War) went into consultation with the Imperial War Council (of Japan) where they were deciding whether or not to surrender. However, three days after the bombing of Hiroshima, America bombed Japan again, this time in Nagasaki. Roughly a week after the Nagasaki bombing, Emperor Hirohito on 15 August 1945 announced surrender via radio broadcast. He officially surrendered in written agreement later that year on 2 September 1945.
They did but they had decided to surrender before the bombs. August 6 1945, US drops the first bomb. Meanwhile Japan was hoping for Russia to help with the procedure but Russia declared war against Japan and invaded Manchuria making a mess of Japan's service men there. Japan did know to surrender to the United States than surrender to Russia.
Because Germany and Italy already surrendered and Japan continued to refuse to surrender.
No, it was used for US so Japan would surrender.
The us bombed two cities in japan, then they helped japan reconstrust after japans surrender
Japan agreed to surrender about a week after the Nagasaki bombing.
The victor can refuse to accept a surrender.
General McArthur and several Admirals in the Navy accepted the surrender of Japan and they signed the surrender documents with the Japanese officials on one of the US naval ships.
The US dropped an atomic bomb on Japan and told them they would drop another if Japan did not surrender. They didn't surrender, so the US dropped a second atom bomb. The US then told Japan that they would send a THIRD atom bomb (which they actually didn't have. It was a HUGE bluff), and luckily for mankind, the Japanese DID surrender.
After the atomic bombs, Japan surrender unconditionally since then, nothing happen in Japan without the US knowing it.
Japan surrendered after 2 bombs.
Because Japan had not surrendered yet. There was also a danger that Japan would surrender to Russia as opposed to the US.

Japan blamed the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the US of course! The US bombed Japan because they refused to surrender.
