No, the Japanese did not surrender to the Allied forces before the Germans. Germany surrendered unconditionally on May 7, 1945, marking the end of the war in Europe. Japan, however, continued to fight until August 15, 1945, when Emperor Hirohito announced their surrender following the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The official surrender was signed on September 2, 1945.
Fear of loss of face.
Like ancient Sparta before it, surrender was not an option. It was considered a disgrace.
The last Japanese soldier to surrender was Captain Fumio Nakahira who held out until April, 1980, before being discovered at Mt. Halcon on Mindoro Island in the Philippines. Before that, there was Onoda Hiroo, discovered in the jungle of Lubang Island on March 11, 1974, twenty-nine years after the war ended.
Australians fought in the Pacific Theater against Japanese forces from the outbreak of war in December 1941 until Japan's surrender in August 1945. This period spans approximately three years and eight months. Throughout this time, Australian troops participated in significant battles in places like New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and Borneo. Their efforts were crucial in the broader Allied campaign against Japan.
Italy was the first of the axis powers to surrender. They signed an armistice with the allied forces on September 3rd 1943, almost 2 years before Germany and Japan.

No, there was no warning, other than a request to the Japanese government that they surrender.
There none before the bombs. Japanese were willing to dye fighting.

Atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
Tanks were used in World War 1 and the Allied tanks were better equipped than the germans' although the germans' were bigger and i think they were faster the Allied tanks were superior to their enemies' WW1 was when tanks were used in large scale for the first time but i think they were invented some time before the war but not long before. hope that helps!!! :-)
The United States called for a surrender of Japan in the Potsdam Declaration on July 26, 1945, threatening Japan with "prompt and utter destruction".

Michael Montagne The May 7th surrender document was signed in a Rheims school where the S.H.A.E.F. (Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Forces) was headquartered ...

Many American war veterans from World War II would say that the nuclear bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to save millions of American servicemen who would otherwise have to invade the Japanese Homeland. The stated intent prior to Victory in Europe was to develop an atomic bomb before the Germans did so. Once the Germans were defeated the stated purpose changed. Some believe that the real reason for dropping the bombs was to punish Japan for the attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on December 7, 1941.
