Answer:

President Truman made the decision to drop the atomic bombs on Japan due to the warmongering attitude of the Japanese government, which instigated its soldiers to fight to the death. Examples like the Battle of Iwo Jima, where there were only 216 Japanese survivors of an army of more than 20,000 men, showed that the Japanese had no intention of giving up. And this obviously resulted in a huge amount of American casualties. Therefore, the decision was made to strike a blow large enough to force Japan to surrender, avoiding further unnecessary casualties.

Pearl Harbor. The atomic bombs that we dropped on Japan was revenge for Pearl Harbor. We already had some issues with Japan but the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was the main reason for the atomic bombs that President Truman dropped on Japan.

1. The U.S. Constitution uses federalism to divide governmental powers between the federal government and the individual state governments. The Tenth Amendment tells us that all powers not granted to the federal government are reserved to the states.

2. Articles I-III of the United States Constitution allow for three separate branches of government (legislative, executive, and judicial), along with a system of checks and balances should any branch get too powerful. Belinda Stutzman breaks down each branch and its constitutionally-entitled powers.
