Wow, this is a very informative post. But I watched a video on YouTube where Japan surrendered immediately after the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombing. I'll really like to get a little clarification on how the entry of the USSR against Japan caused them to surrender, because I used to think the USSR were against the Japanese from the beginning of the war.
