In Europe: As the Americans and English entered Germany from the west, the Soviet army entered Germany from the east; by this time in 1945, the German army was no longer strong enough to fight on two fronts.

In Japan: While dropping the two atomic bombs on Japan convinced Emperor Hirohito to surrender, Japan was already in the final stages of collapse. American submarines had sunk virtually every Japanese cargo ship, so there was no food and oil imported into Japan; Navy ships such as the battleship New Jersey sailed offshore and bombarded Japanese factories, ports, and cities at will, while the U.S. Marines had beaten the Japanese soldiers in every island battle as they advanced across the pacific from Guadalcanal to Tarawa to Saipan, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa.

What are victory bonds how do they work and why would you buy them?

Victory bonds are government-issued bonds sold to fund military operations during times of war. They work by individuals purchasing the bonds at a set price, and in return, they receive regular interest payments and the return of their initial investment at the bond's maturity.
