Because he wanted to end war as fast as possible
Explanation:
- Truman was vice president for only 82 days before President Roosevelt died.
- He had very little significant discussions on world affairs and domestic politics after taking the oath of office for Roosevelt's vice president and was completely unaware of major initiatives to continue the successful war - most notably the secret project Manhattan, which at the time of Roosevelt's death, was on the highlight of testing the first atomic bomb.
- Truman was soon briefed on the Manhattan Project and approved the use of nuclear weapons against Japan in August 1945 after the Potsdam Declaration was rejected by the Japanese Empire.
- The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remained to this day the first, but also the only, use of nuclear weapons for war purposes. The bombing was followed by the rapid capitulation of Japan on September 2, 1945, and the end of World War II. The use of nuclear weapons was not controversial at the time, both in the US and among its allies.
- At the Potsdam Conference, Joseph Stalin advised Truman to use the atomic bomb as soon as possible. In the years following the bombing, Truman's decision became extremely controversial, and it was said why he decided to do so.

Explanation:
In the Revolutionary War, the colonial forces had multiple advantages. For one, they were fighting on their home turf, so they were more familiar with their surroundings. Also, they cared more about what they were fighting for - to the British, this was a dumb war they were being forced to fight so close to the 7 Year's War and they didn't really care about keeping some irrelevant colony. The colonial forces used guerrilla warfare to fight the British as well, which disrupted their traditional military style.
Answer:
Davy Crockett was a backwoodsman from Tennessee. His skill as a hunter and storyteller helped get him elected to three terms in Congress. But when he started his first
political campaign, Crockett was doubtful about his chances of winning. “The thought
of having to make a speech made my knees feel mighty weak and set my heart to fluttering.” Fortunately for Crockett, the other candidates spoke all day and tired out the
audience. “When they were all done,” Crockett boasted, “I got up and told some laughable story, and quit. . . . I went home, and didn’t go back again till after the election was
over.” In the end, Crockett won the election by a wide margin.
