Hiroshima, the capital of Japan's Hiroshima Prefecture, was the target of the first nuclear weapon dropped by the United States in the war. A number of Japanese cities were selected as possible targets (but not Tokyo) to demonstrate the power of a nuclear device to the Japanese High Command and the Emporer of Japan. It was hoped that they would see the wisdom in immediate surrender and the end of the War in the Pacific (WWII). Links are provided.
