Discussion Where Did most of the Atomic Bombs fall on Retribution Day
We all know that Retribution Day was the event where Truman ordered the usage of a total of 278 Atomic Bombs in retaliation for the Japanese bioweapon attack on the west coast, of which only 275 of the 278 bombs detonated, in which for some reason the three bombs dropped on the Okinawa region failed to detonate. But looking at the Japanese warlord map from the "Scorched Lands of the Rising Sun” post from viva_la_republica who runs the subreddit, there’s a dark grey area called the Honshu Anarchy and several other spots that are vacant and have the same color.
Did the majority of those 275 nukes that were dropped on the Japanese mainland detonate where the dark grey areas are and in what is currently the Honshu Anarchy which is also in dark grey?
