Hiroshima was selected as a target for the atomic bombing because it was a major industrial and military hub for Japan, with a large population. It had a significant military base and was a center for manufacturing and transportation. Additionally, the city had been largely untouched by previous bombing raids, making it a prime candidate for a more impactful strike.
