The Pacific half of World War II, which began with Japan's attack on the American naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941, ended almost four years later when Japan surrendered to American-led allies on September 2, 1945. 1  The surrender came after the United States had dropped two atomic bombs on Japan.
Seventy years ago, the unconditional surrender of Japan to the Allies brought an end to six years of conflict. Although the Second World War officially ended on 2 September 1945, 15 August â when Japan announced it had accepted the Allied surrender terms â is known as VJ Day, or Victory over Japan Day.
