Atomic Bomb Prime Minister

the few survivors after the most terrible weapon,
the Atomic Bomb, had dropped on the city of
Hiroshima. It was a horrible piece of memory. I
wish I have not been born at that time. It was a
nightmare for the people in Hiroshima. The Bomb
affected the whole generation of people. It even
affected our next generation. Thousands of babies
were born handicapped or died after a few months
after their births. Because their mothers absorbed

things having to do with the military. In 1763 The
Seven Years' War ended, depriving France of much
