end of ww2
- By late April 1945, Allied troops had reached Berlin while Hitler committed suicide as the end of the Third Reich neared. On May 8th, Victory in Europe Day was celebrated after Germany unconditionally surrendered.
- In August 1945, the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing over 200,000 people. Japan surrendered shortly after, ending World War II.
- After the war, the Allied powers divided Germany into zones controlled by each country and put Nazi leaders on trial for war crimes at the Nuremberg trials.
Atomic Bomb not used since Japan
The document discusses the background and use of nuclear weapons. It describes how the US initiated a secret project in 1939 to develop atomic weapons and then used nuclear bombs against Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 to end World War II. While nuclear weapons cause immense destruction, countries continue stockpiling them for deterrence against threats rather than actual use, which could escalate conflicts. Efforts at nuclear disarmament through treaties have faced challenges in being fully implemented.

1) The Nazi party, led by Adolf Hitler, persecuted and killed millions of Jewish people and destroyed many religions.
2) The United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, becoming the first country to use nuclear weapons and establishing itself as a superpower. However, this also made the world less safe as countries began developing their own nuclear arsenals.
3) The United Nations was formed after World War 2 to replace the League of Nations and promote international cooperation.

Korean War 6th Period Guyer
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, capturing the capital city within three days. The war was mainly fought along the 38th parallel dividing line between North and South Korea. After three years of fighting, a ceasefire was signed on July 27, 1953, but the peninsula remains divided and the countries are still technically at war. Over two million lives were lost in the conflict, including more than 50,000 American soldiers.

Atomic bomb droping at hiroshima & nagasaki ppt by Rahul Mehra
The US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 and Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, in an effort to force Japan to surrender and end World War II. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima, named "Little Boy", destroyed over half the city and killed around 70,000 people instantly. In Nagasaki, the "Fat Man" bomb exploded 1,800 feet above the city, leveling buildings and killing approximately 42,000 people while injuring 40,000 more. The bombings marked the first and only use of nuclear weapons in war and resulted in hundreds of thousands of injuries and long term deaths from radiation exposure across both cities.
Atom Bombs Were They Justified?
The document discusses whether the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were morally and militarily justified in ending WWII. It presents perspectives from several top American military leaders who argued that the bombs were not necessary to defeat Japan, including Dwight Eisenhower, Douglas MacArthur, and Curtis LeMay. It also notes that a US bombing survey and officials like Ralph Bird concluded that Japan was already defeated and would have surrendered before invasion. The document suggests the bombs were not needed to end the war and primarily served to intimidate the Soviet Union, while also causing immense civilian suffering.
Balance of terror (cold war)
The document discusses the history of nuclear weapons development and tensions between the United States and Soviet Union following World War II. It covers key events like the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Soviet Union developing their first atomic bomb in 1949, the Korean War in 1950, the US testing the first hydrogen bomb in 1952, and the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 bringing the two countries close to war before negotiations. Throughout this period after WWII, there was a balance of terror between the two nuclear-armed superpowers in an ongoing arms race.
Hiroshima & Nagasaki Bombings
The document summarizes the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The US issued the Potsdam Declaration calling for Japan's surrender, but Japan refused. The US then decided to use atomic bombs, developed through the secret Manhattan Project, to force Japan's surrender and end WWII. On August 6th, the US dropped a uranium bomb on Hiroshima, killing 70,000 people. After Japan did not surrender, on August 9th the US dropped a plutonium bomb on Nagasaki, killing 135,000 people. Japan surrendered on August 14th, ending WWII.
Pearl Harbor Review Project for Amfilm
The movie Pearl Harbor follows the story of childhood friends Rafe and Danny who join the Navy and become pilots. Rafe falls in love with a nurse named Evelyn. On December 7, 1941 the Japanese launch a devastating surprise attack on the US naval base at Pearl Harbor, killing many Americans. The film stars Ben Affleck as Rafe, Josh Hartnett as Danny, and Kate Beckinsale as Evelyn. Though the film takes some historical liberties, it effectively portrays the bombing of Pearl Harbor and its impact on the United States' entry into World War II.
H bomb & brinkmanship
The United States developed the hydrogen bomb in 1952 in response to the Soviet Union developing the atomic bomb in 1949. The US detonated the first hydrogen bomb in the South Pacific in November 1952, destroying an entire island. While the US initially led in hydrogen bomb technology, the Soviets detonated their own hydrogen bomb just one year later. President Eisenhower and Secretary of State Dulles pursued a policy of brinkmanship to contain communism, which included a willingness to use nuclear weapons and a military buildup of air forces and nuclear weapons. This policy led many Americans to fear nuclear attacks and build fallout shelters, initiating several decades of living under the threat of nuclear war.
Hiroshima and nagasaki
On August 6, 1945, the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan from the B-29 bomber Enola Gay. Approximately 140,000 people were killed or died from injuries in the months following the explosion. Three days later, on August 9, another atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, killing around 80,000 people. Japan surrendered on August 15, ending World War II. These bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki represent the only uses of nuclear weapons in war to date.
Coldwar(2)
The document discusses whether an image showing Churchill, Truman, and Stalin shaking hands at the Potsdam Conference indicates it was a success. At a basic level, it shows the leaders publicly agreeing. However, privately there was still distrust. Additionally, Truman had just become president and relations with Stalin were not good. The US had also recently developed an atomic bomb without informing the Soviets.
the abomb
The document discusses whether the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were necessary to end World War II. It summarizes a 1946 report that argued Japan was ready to surrender, but also provides counterarguments. It notes that while political leaders debated surrender, soldiers may have wanted to keep fighting. The document also discusses the human costs of a land invasion or continued bombing campaign as alternatives. It ultimately concludes the atomic bombs were necessary to force Japan's surrender and avoid further massive casualties on both sides.
Day 2 Cold War Competition
Countries competed with each other in multiple arenas during the Cold War, including militarily, through espionage and spying, in sports and technological developments. The US and Soviet Union used techniques like foreign aid, propaganda, covert operations, and proxy wars to gain influence around the world and over other nations not aligned with either side. Major events in this competition included the Berlin Airlift, the Korean War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Space Race between the two superpowers.
Guerre De Corée
The document discusses the Korean War which began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea. The United Nations backed South Korea and the United States led military forces to defend it. Key figures involved included Kim Il-sung of North Korea, Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union, and Harry Truman of the United States. After initial successes, Chinese troops intervened on behalf of North Korea and forced United Nations forces to retreat. An armistice was reached in 1953, dividing the Korean Peninsula along boundaries similar to the original.

Korea the forgotten war 2014
Korea had been a unified kingdom for centuries but was occupied by Japan from 1910 until the end of World War II. After Japan's defeat, Korea was divided at the 38th parallel, with the Soviet Union occupying the north and the United States occupying the south. This division led to the establishment of two separate governments - the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the north and the Republic of Korea in the south. In June 1950, North Korea invaded South Korea, drawing the United States into the conflict in an effort to contain communism. After seesawing back and forth across the 38th parallel, an armistice was finally agreed to in 1953, leaving the two Koreas still divided along the original demarcation line.

Japan Atomic Bomb Studies World Cultures 2008 09
The document discusses the Manhattan Project, the US effort during World War II to develop the atomic bomb. It cost $2 billion ($27 billion today) and involved over 40 labs and 200,000 people across New York, Tennessee, California and New Mexico. The bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 were the first uses of nuclear weapons in warfare and caused immense destruction through pressure damage, fallout and potential for nuclear winter. The document also provides a hypothetical scenario of a 150 kiloton nuclear bomb detonated in Manhattan to illustrate the potential damage and casualties of a nuclear attack on a major city.
Codename Fat Man
