Yes at that time
the Japan Empire was in control of
much of China.


After the USA dropped
the Two atomic bomb, Japan did not surrender
crazy of them/


[On 6 and 9 August 1945, the United States
detonated two atomic bombs over the
Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
respectively. The aerial bombings together killed
between 129,000 and 226,000 people,
most of whom were civilians, and remain the only
use of nuclear weapons in an armed conflict.]

I went to the museum as well. The Japanese know they were the bad guys and I think the general consensus there is that it was deserved.
