Protests in the US against the Vietnam War caused all of the following except the war to end after bombing Japan.
Explanation:
The war that ended after bombing Japan was World War II, not the Vietnam War. In fact, World War II ended after the Japanese surrender as a result of the nuclear bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The Hiroshima and Nagasaki nuclear bomb attacks were conducted by the United States Air Force in 1945. On August 6, the Japanese port city of Hiroshima was bombed and on August 9, the city of Nagasaki suffered the same situation. Shortly thereafter the Japanese Empire surrendered, ending World War II. The nuclear bomb attacks also led to the independence of the Asian countries that Japan had conquered during the war.
At the end of 1945, approximately 250,000 people had died as a result of the attacks. Several hundred thousand victims are said to have been killed as a result of radiation sickness and cancer during the following years.
