The United States initiated the Manhattan Project during World War II with the primary goal of developing atomic weapons to gain a strategic advantage over Axis powers, particularly Nazi Germany. The project aimed to harness nuclear fission to create powerful bombs that could end the war swiftly and decisively. Ultimately, the successful development and deployment of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 led to Japan's surrender and marked a significant turning point in modern warfare and international relations.
