But this was discarded because of the early surrender and make America and Kim Il Sung (of the Guerilla faction; ironically backed by the USSR) powerful influences to the whole Korean Peninsula. This early Japanese surrender brought the sudden divisions inside the Korean Provisional government.

The two a-bombs over Japan did more than just affect Japan. It completely crippled South Korean political authority up to today by America.
Yes Komitsuki is right most people dont know about this little part of history (wow something we both agree on) The result is still not changed though it happened you cant erase it and because of it. Nations now know what kind of devastation this bombs can do. IS the human race a little more wiser because of it yes but not by much.
