Region: North Korea

The main reason Japan surrendered was due to the Soviet incursion in Northren Manchuria and they simply did not want to repeat what happened to Germany and split the country in half, a Northren Communist part and Southern Capitalist state, so they surrendered to the U.S.
In my opinion, they dropped the bomb to investigate what happens to the population of the area to use Japanese people ,as live human test subject.

I agree, though I view the US regime's actions in Hiroshima and Nagasaki as more an act of terror directed towards the entire world, primarily the USSR, than any scientific inquiry. It was the settler-colonial regime showing off their new toy, letting the world know who's on top and that they have no moral boundaries in what they will do to maintain that state of affairs if necessary.
