Nagasaki was the turning point to end the war. The second atomic bomb, Fat Boy was dropped on Nagasaki two or three days after Hiroshima was bombed. Emperor Hirohito realized he had to surrender considering there was a probability the US could have more atomic bombs and totally destroy his empire. He had sworn to protect the throne and the Empire so he surrendered.

∙ 12y agoNagasaki lies at the head of a long bay which forms the best natural harbor on the southern Japanese home island of Kyushu. The main commercial and residential area of the city lies on a small plain near the end of the bay. Two rivers divided by a mountain spur form the two main valleys in which the city lies. This mountain spur and the irregular lay-out of the city tremendously reduced the area of destruction, so that at first glance Nagasaki appeared to have been less devastated than Hiroshima.
The heavily build-up area of the city is confined by the terrain to less than 4 square miles out of a total of about 35 square miles in the city as a whole.
The city of Nagasaki had been one of the largest sea ports in southern Japan and was of great war-time importance because of its many and varied industries, including the production of ordnance, ships, military equipment, and other war materials. The narrow long strip attacked was of particular importance because of its industries
