Question

What was one of the long term consequences of the United States’ use of atomic weapons during World War II?

Answer 1

One of the long-term consequences of the atomic bombs that landed on Japan under the United States' discretion was the huge problem with radiation. Radiation from the atomic bombs were a terrible problem that oversaw Japanese citizens. Even if you survived the atomic bomb, you would most likely get cancer in the next couple of years and die from it. The cancer, which was mostly leukemia, did not appear right away. Around four years after some of the Japanese citizens would survive the atomic bombs, they would die or become very ill from cancer.
