The second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan. It was two days after the first one on Hiroshima. It was done to convince the Imperial Japanese army that surrender was their only option. Otherwise they would have fought to the death and millions of Japanese and Americans would have died in the invasion of Japan.
