The United States ended World War II in the Pacific by employing a strategy of island hopping, capturing strategically important islands and moving closer to Japan. The turning point came with the victories in battles such as Midway and Guadalcanal. Ultimately, the war concluded with the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, which led to Japan's unconditional surrender on September 2, 1945. This combination of military strategy and the unprecedented use of nuclear weapons forced Japan to capitulate, effectively bringing an end to the conflict in the Pacific.
