The debates surrounding the defeat of Japan primarily focus on the use of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, with arguments about whether the bombings were necessary to hasten Japan's surrender or if they constituted unnecessary civilian casualties. Additionally, some historians discuss the role of the Soviet Union's entry into the war against Japan and its potential impact on Japan's decision to surrender. Other considerations include the moral implications of the bombings and their long-term effects on U.S.-Japan relations. Overall, these discussions reflect broader themes of military ethics, historical interpretation, and the complexities of wartime decision-making.

After the atomic bombs, Japan surrender unconditionally since then, nothing happen in Japan without the US knowing it.
Japan is an island, not a continent...and it's not particularly dry.
The Great White Fleet, sent by the United States on a world tour from 1907 to 1909, had a significant impact on Japan by demonstrating American naval power and fostering a sense of competition. Japan, keen to be recognized as a major world power, was motivated to modernize its own navy and military capabilities. The visit also influenced Japan's diplomatic relations with the U.S., leading to both cooperation and tensions, particularly in the context of Asian-American relations and territorial ambitions in the Pacific. Ultimately, it marked a pivotal moment in Japan's emergence as a formidable nation on the global stage.
After Japan invaded China in 1937, relations between Washington and Tokyo deteriorated rapidly.
