Answer:
The Empire of Japan surrendered five days after the bombing of Nagasaki.

Step-by-step explanation:
Such deadly and potent weapons had never been seen used in combat before, and two major Japanese cities were now piles of smoldering rubble. Over 200,000 Japanese civilians were dead, and whatever morale for support of the war was lost.
