Japan surrendered in August 1945 because of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the United States, which caused widespread destruction and loss of life, leading to the realization that further resistance was futile. Additionally, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan, further weakening their position. These factors ultimately forced Japan to surrender and end World War II.
