The event of the dropping of the atomic bombs led to the end of World War II in Asia.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The Japanese Emperor kept carrying out war acts despite repeated warnings from the United States and its allies to surrender. The United States under the President-ship of Franklin D. Roosevelt finally decided to drop atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

These bombs were dropped on two different days, viz. 6 and 9 August 1945, following which, Japan surrendered and the war was ended.
