6. What I know
World War 2 was caused by the Germans after being accused
for starting World War 1 and the germans led by Adolf Hitler
invaded the sides of their country such as poland and other
very small countries, they would dominate and over rule a lot
of Europe. The war started in 1 September 1939 to 2
September 1945. There were the Allied Powers against the
Axis powers which included Japan,Germany etc... Germany
later surrendered in the war. The USA dropped a Nuclear
Bomb in Japan and it caused many deaths and infections that
caused Japan to pull out of the war. I know this because I
watched Brain-pop with lots of detail on Germany.

Hiroshima

8. What I know
In this event, the Americans bombed the city of Hiroshima
with a nuclear bomb. It affected many innocent citizens and
affecting the people of the city, many generations later even
though there were no more bomb attacks on the city. This is
because of the nuclear attack. It sent out so much radiation
that killed a lot of many innocent citizens which caused Japan
too have very little population and life expectancy. Even if
some people survived the bomb attack, they died many weeks
later with health problems and Radiation infections. I know
this because of Remembrance Day and Websites about the
bomb with more info about World War 2.
